Curriculum Sample

Please find the working sample for the Heirs to the Kingdom curriculum here. 

This is where you will find the "open and go" riches for short lessons taught during co-op or at home.

Week 12: Supplemental and Review

  Morning, An Overcast Day, Rouen, by Camille Pissarro   Scripture: Alma 34:9-10. This week we had the students practice memory of the scripture together.   Gethsemane, by Liz Lemon Swindle    Pissarro and his wife Julie Vellay, 1877 Art Study: Pissarro's industrial cityscape series of Pont Boieldieu in Rouen. We mentioned how the French army destroyed the bridge in 1940 at the start of WWII, to delay the Germans from crossing the River Seine. Some students made up stories about the paintings. In this video one can see remnants of a destroyed bridge at Rouen in 1940; it is assumed to be Pont Boieldieu.  Hymn: Rock of Ages . For fun we tried to learn the alto and soprano parts separately. We get an A for effort. Composer Study: Giacomo Puccini is our composer. His operas are the most famous. We listened to the story behind his most famous aria, Nessun Dorma .

Here is a page with all the images and information about it. Highly recommend , but preview if you think it is too morbid for your students. He did each one on tiny woodcuts. (My boys were very interested in these woodblock prints. It was interesting to look at the different types of people, and how Death comes for them all.

  Route Enneigée avec maison, environs d'Éragny, or Snowy road with house, near Éragny, by Camille Pissarro   (Note: I wanted to plug supplemental videos right here on the blog, and/or try using ViewPure to block out comments, etc. But many videos disabled their embedding features. If you don't use an adblocker I suggest you add one to block ads from the videos if you use YouTube. The ViewPure works with some videos and might be worth trying as well.)    Kami's Spotify List .    Here is a playlist for the next four weeks . It is incomplete, and I will add videos as needed (I screen all videos to make sure they are appropriate for students).    If you just want to watch videos that supplement what we did in Lux this week , here they are broken down below: Scripture: Alma 34:9-10 (I find it effective to have anyone leading the scripture at home to state the reference, everyone repeats the reference, the scripture is read, then everyone repeats th...
