We have recently come upon a fun and easy way to add enrichment into our homeschool. It’s called The Homeschool Enrichment Collection from Homeschool Mastery Academy.
{I received free access to The Homeschool Enrichment Collection Membership and was compensated for my time in writing this review. All views are my own and I was not required to write a positive review.}
What is The Homeschool Enrichment Collection Membership
The Homeschool Enrichment Collection Membership from Homeschool Mastery Academy is designed to help families cultivate a love a learning by providing themed, ready made ideas and activities each month. Providing affordable, simple, and accessible printables, activities, and ideas so you can bring FUN into your homeschool!
So far we have had the opportunity to use many ideas from themes like Fun Family Traditions, Summer, Entomology, and Ocean. Each month new things are added, allowing you to capitalize on the learning experiences from holidays and seasonal activities, but also enrich your homeschool with hands-on learning activities including arts and crafts, field trip ideas, educational printable packs, book lists and SO much more!
A Look Inside The Homeschool Enrichment Collection Membership
Now that I’ve told you what The Homeschool Enrichment Collection Membership is, let me SHOW YOU what it is.
Themed Educational Packs
To show you what a themed education pack is like I am using the Ocean one as an example.
What’s Inside These Themed Packs?
- A daily planner sheet
- colorful photos and quotes
- information about the topic
- a themed related book list
- age specific activities ( whole sheet for each age group including elementary, middle, and high school age kids)
- poetry and poetry tea time ideas (including a recipe)
- an art/craft project
If you are like our family you have multiple ages to teach and once. With the ocean theme we chose to make a huge poster to engage our youngest, but also to have our older kids contribute with their own findings.
For instance one of the elementary suggestions pertains to learning about one type of sea creature. While the middle school level is to learn about coral reefs, and create a slideshow with photos and texts. Instead of doing the slideshow we had our middle schoolers contribute to the poster by printing out photos of things to add with typed, brief descriptions.
Holiday and Seasonal Themes
As summer is coming upon us we have already started looking for fun ideas to break outside while learning. (The warm weather is fleeting here in NY) Thus The Homeschool Enrichment Collection Membership Summer Pack couldn’t have come at a better time! It is filled with fun activities and ideas to do with your kids.
My grandson and I collected items from the beach while we were camping (albeit not an ocean beach so shells are not super varied or exciting) and then later at home we spent an afternoon creating the windchimes.
I also thought this would be a fun one to make with collected bottle caps (like the metal ones from the tops of glass bottles) as we often find those all around. Plus it would have the added bonus of cleaning up the environment!
Planning and Organizational Help
Included with your membership is a plethora of printable planners including things like:
- My Eclectic Loop Scheduling Workbook
- Eclectic Morning Time Workbook
- Unit Study Builder Workbook
- A Full Homeschool Planner
- And More!
Beyond these initial planners, there are monthly activity calendars and within each new themed packet are planning suggestions and printables.
Within the Summer Packet is Printable Summer Schedule Pack that includes 8 different pages with thins like a chore chart, ideas for themed days, daily project ideas and more!
These pages are what my daughter used to create a SUMMER OF FUN poster sized calendar and activity chart for my grandson. She included themed days with activity ideas from the packet, as well as a calendar of activities for each month (that also includes his soccer, swimming, camping, etc)
