Last week I introduced our plan for summer homeschooling. Here are some of the books we’ll use. Many are from Mindware. I’ll continue to add to this list as we find great materials!
Analogy Challenges Level B Age 11-14
Analogy Challenges Level A – Grades 3-5
Connections: Activities for Deductive Thinking
Grid Perplexors Level B, Deductive Logic Puzzles
Brain In A Box Grade 5 (boardgame)
Cooking Rocks! Rachael Ray 30-Minute Meals for Kids (will also look for Aton Brown cookbooks — thanks for the tip, Sandra!)
Books to read aloud with my 5th grader (we’ll begin with these):
The 39 Clues: The Sword Thief (Third book in series)
Wright 3 (Sequel to Chasing Vermeer)
What are some of your favorite summer school/homeschool materials?

This is the Alton Brown cookbook that we like: http://spedr.com/3afx7
By the way, did you know that there is a Wright 3 Robie House Tour, given by kids, in Chicago? We’ve made reservations for the 6/13 tour, and will blog about it afterwards.

I love Mindware! How’s the summer schooling ramp up going? We are on vacation the first week out! LOL Thought of you and your recent Zion’s Park trip as we drove through that area last week!
Hugs,
