Figurative language sort board, cards and recording sheet. This sorting activity is intended for use at a literacy center. It now also contains a digital Google Slide option! How does this work? The student places the six category cards on the marked spots. Next, they place the appropriate definition cards under the category cards. Then, they sort the 18 numbered cards placing them under the appropriate category. Lastly, students complete a recording sheet indicating the types of figurative language found. The types of figurative language included are: ✔ Personification ✔ Hyperbole ✔ Alliteration ✔ Simile ✔ Metaphor ✔ Idiom Please take a look at the preview above to see this resource in more detail. Please note: I added the online option due to teacher requests. The sort is all on ONE Google Slide.

I was confident in my ability to homeschool through middle school. After all, most adults should have a good working knowledge of the information addressed up through eighth grade. However, the more specialized subjects that come with high school gave me pause for concern. Did I remember enough biology and chemistry to do it justice when teaching? Would I be able to dissect an algebraic equation enough to adequately teach it? And what about Latin...which I have no knowledge of, but he still wants to learn? It was at this phase that I began to consider outsourcing parts of the school day. We looked around at various curricula, and there are some fantastic options out there! But online options seemed like a good fit for (a) the future of our tech-driven world and (b) portability as we traveled. More B than A. After looking around a great deal, the two best options for us were SchoolhouseTeachers and Khan Academy. One is free; one is not. That seemed like it'd be end of story, but there's so much more underneath the surface here... For starters, only certain subjects are available at Khan, and many of the ones we were seeking were not on that list. Secondly, I'm not a huge fan of Common Core, and it does follow those standards. After taking four classes through Khan, we eventually gave it up entirely because of the sheer number of errors found in the courses. We found errors in a history course (more of a re-written history than what you'd find in textbooks that are thirty years old). We also came across a math course that counted all correct answers wrong on the quiz. (Mom went back, took the quiz using a calculator, and it still counted everything wrong.) This was what led us toward using a different option for online schooling, in spite of it not being free. SchoolhouseTeachers gives you an excellent bang for your buck. There are over 450 courses taught by outstanding teachers. Courses vary in length from a few weeks to a full year or more, and there is something for every member of the family. There are printable lesson plans for courses that help you keep track of lesson completion. They also offer a handy checklist that shows which courses are appropriate for each grade level. One membership covers every class on the site for your entire family, from preschool to high school, and beyond. Classes are not live, so you can start ANY time! There are no per-class or per-child fees and you can cancel anytime. They provide you with multiple printable planners, a free membership to World Book Library (e-books), Right Start Media access (streamable movies, such as Drive Through History), and access to the Applecore recordkeeping system. You get a print copy of The Old Schoolhouse magazine, and all back issues are online as well, so that you can access the information as it becomes relevant to your school. Entire pages are dedicated to parenting special needs, preschoolers, high schoolers, and focused learning centers (new ideas for teaching struggling learners). There are sections on homemaking, homeschool living, monthly menu plans, and discounts for a multitude of vendors–there’s even a section just for craft ideas for the kids! The Monthly Menu page offers up an entire month of seasonally-appropriate recipes for each month of the year. Schoolhouse Expo seminars, classes specifically for adults, family movie access (streaming), and extra member discounts make this great for parents, too! For one flat rate, you have everything needed for the school year -- all grades, all classes -- at your fingertips. You choose whether to use printable or streaming classes. The only thing required is reliable internet! So how exactly do they compare? We've used both SchoolhouseTeachers and Khan Academy extensively, and found each to have their merits depending on what we needed at the time. Here's a short breakdown on how they differ... Schoolhouse Teachers Khan Academy Video, interactive, and printable courses - online and offline options Strictly video-based courses – all online Several course options for each subject (per grade) One course for each subject (per grade) Parent keeps track of student progress Site keeps track of student progress with mastery points (not grades / percentages) Some courses are for independent use, while others are designed for the parent to teach All courses are taught by the site Resources and classes designed for the entire family (eg, classes just for mom included) Resources are only for the student Classes for all subjects, all grades, and electives Core subjects and a few elective classes Features extra helps for special needs, gifted students, learning to read, and more No extra features One login for the entire family One login for each student Not Common Core Follows Common Core standards Online support group (Facebook) No online support group Receptive to questions and reports of errors No known receptiveness for correcting errors Faith-based or Neutral worldview courses Secular courses Annual or monthly membership covers every student in the family for ALL courses Free to use for the courses available See inside sample courses here See inside a sample course here Khan Academy is free to use. SchoolhouseTeachers usually has some amazing sales...with the option of month-to-month (to see if it's a good fit) or annual memberships.

Homeschoolers have different styles. Some need structure and rigidity (rather because of personal preferences or a requirement of the state), while others go for a more laid-back approach. Some need to get everything prepped and ready to go over the weekend - possibly because they're working and teaching - while others go with the flow each day. You may also be interested in: Tailoring School Boxes to Your Student's Needs For the families that need more structure, who are trying to juggle working from home and teaching, Google Classroom is a great option for managing assignments with middle and high school students. These students are capable of more independent work, but still need to be pointed in the right direction. With Google Classroom, you upload assignments, give due dates, and can record grades after completion. Two great benefits of this system are the assignment calendar and the sheer amount of paper saved by completing several assignments online. It allows you to use any digital curriculum that you have available, in any location with internet access, without having a bunch of books and notebooks....which is a huge plus for roadschooling or travelling families! Set Up Google Classroom for Homeschool Use Register your homeschool for Google Classroom. Each student will need his / her own login information (Google account). After registering, take a few moments to walk through the introductory tutorials. In the Member Dashboard of SchoolhouseTeachers, you can bookmark classes that your students are currently working on. This allows you to easily find the courses and assignments, and once they have completed the class you simply remove the bookmark. Thanks to the lesson plans that ST provides for each course, you can upload an entire semester or year's worth of assignments in one long weekend prior to the beginning of the school year. Upload your Course Assignments With the class in these pics - People and Places of World War II - I uploaded all of the materials at one time, and then have created weekly assignments telling them which pages to read and what to complete. It took about 45 minutes to upload the assignments and materials for the entire year class. Yes, that's per class, but then you're done setting up for the year... plus it tells you when they've completed the assignment, creates a portfolio of their work, and stores grades (once you've graded it) for their school record. Create one 'class' per course. Copy the lesson plan from ST, then add or delete instructions as needed. Your student will take notes and answer questions for the lesson. Answers can be typed into the document or handwritten into a notebook. For classes that are video based, simply upload the assignments with the links for them to go directly to the videos. Each class session will immediately follow the previous one, so that by the end of the semester, you will have one long document (a string of all the class sessions) for the entire class. With the feed feature, you can give your students feedback throughout the course. This will generate one long conversation that adds to the record. Need more assistance? Check out the Google Classroom Cheat Sheets New to SchoolhouseTeachers? It includes all classes, for all grades...and it's one price for the entire family. There are many different learning styles to select from, so if you have one visual kid who needs a relaxed pace and one aural kid who needs a more stringent pace, there are classes that will fit them each. With over 475 classes available, plus extras for mom and dad, this is my favorite resource to offer new families who are wanting to dip their toe into homeschooling but don't even have an idea of how to answer the above questions!
