Grammar-Land Worksheets

I've mentioned one of the free resources we are using for grammar in a previous post, but I made some worksheets today to go along with the book and I wanted to share them with you all.  Grammar-Land by M.L. Nesbitt is a wonderful book, and a perfect choice for Charlotte Mason inspired families.  You can view it online or download the pdf file, or buy the book.  We read it on my Sony Reader (the best homeschooling investment I have made!)

At the end of each chapter are some exercises woven into the story.  I've taken those exercises and turned them into worksheets.  Without something printed out and ready to go we tend to forget to do the exercises and I really think they are helpful in cementing concepts.

My Apologies

So much for that New Year's Resolution, huh?!  I've been so busy with things that I've barely had time to finish two chapters of the book I'm reading, much less get to the blog once this week.  Three times is not likely to happen!  :-)

I'm trying to get the Grammar Land Worksheets completed, and I'm also working on formatting The Burgess Bird Book for Children for printing and finding coloring pages to go with it.  And while doing those things I'm trying to keep up with the school work as well as preparing my house for some remodeling/painting that will be starting next week.  Add in two birthday parties to attend this weekend and I'm beyond busy.  In fact, I forgot to eat breakfast this morning and it's now almost lunch time!  

If I don't get things up that you're expecting to see (like the Grammar Land Worksheets by mid-February) a gentle reminder would be appreciated!  If I can't remember to feed myself, I can't be relied on to get to these things when you expect me to, can I?  lol 

Grammar-Land

Wow!  I have another great find today.  It's a public domain book titled Grammar-Land (pdf file) by M.L. Nesbitt that I downloaded to my Sony Reader and it looks awesome!  I highly recommend you check it out.
