All books in the series will eventually be revised however, at this writing Beyond Five in a Row series is still in the previous edition.īefore Five in a Row has much the same content as the original book, but with three additional stories included. Now, the author’s children have undertaken the task of modernizing the series and updating the literature lists. The original Five in a Row series was written three decades ago for the previous generation of homeschoolers. Choose from many possible activities for each day. Literature selections contain positive moral stories that reflect Biblical values. Use as a stand-alone program for preschool, or supplement with phonics and math and use it with older children.

The Five in a Row title comes from reading the same classic children’s book five days in a row as a literature-based unit study to cover social studies, character, language arts, math, science and art. This series provides a wonderful way to nurture your relationship with your children and foster a lifelong adventure of learning. ** Units for The Boxcar Children and Betsy Ross: Designer of Our Flag were originally published in Beyond Five in a Row, Volume 1, and have been revised for inclusion in Volume 5. * Units for The Raft, Snowflake Bentley, The Gullywasher, Angelo, and The Hatmaker’s Sign were originally published in Five in a Row Volume 4, First Edition, and have been revised for inclusion in Volume 5. Like previous second edition volumes of Five in a Row, Volume Five also contains Teacher’s Notes pages for every title, providing a place to record lessons, go-along resources, favorite memories, and more and Activity Sheets for every title (or every chapter) that support and add to the lessons. Subject areas include Social Studies (including History, Geography, and Career Paths), Science, Language Arts (including Writing and Discussion Questions and Vocabulary), Fine Arts, and Life Skills. The chapter book units** smoothly transition you and your student to upcoming FIAR volumes with complete studies based on two classic chapter books. Lessons include discussion guide and questions, teacher answers, hands-on activities and suggestions for further study. In Volume Five, the picture book units* cover the same subject areas as in Volumes 1-4, and are designed to be rowed for two weeks each. The Five in a Row approach to chapter books uses a very similar method of learning that students and teachers have come to love through previous FIAR volumes. They absolutely loved it.Five in a Row Volume Five is unique in the FIAR curriculum! The only volume to incorporate both picture books and chapter books, it’s ideal for students ages 10 and up who are ready to make the transition to middle school-level work. I was shocked to learn that none of the boys (including my two) had tried any hand sewing before. Christy has been sharing pictures of her book clubs each month and I love borrowing some of the ideas!

We began with a sewing activity completely inspired by my friend, Christy’s Instagram Book Club photo. The book club for the boys focused on rabbits (or boys) preparing for battle.

The Green Ember Book Club #1: Battle Theme You can find Vickie on Instagram and on her blog.īoth groups had a fantastic time and the ideas from both book clubs can be combined. I planned on for the boys’ book club and my friend, Vickie, planned one for our girls’ book club. Two different moms planned two very different book clubs. Two Different Green Ember Book Clubs For Kids I knew we were going to have a fantastic book club celebrating this epic adventure story. Of course, this means that we are currently halfway through listening to the second book in the series, Ember Falls. I’ll admit that it was a slow start for me but once the action and adventure kicked in, we were engaged until the exciting, cliff-hanger ending. Our family listened to this story together on audible. The Green Ember by SD Smith is the first book in the Green Ember series. Till the Green Ember rises or the end of the world.” “My place beside you, my blood for yours.
