Because it is the week of Abraham Lincoln's 200th birthday(February 12, 1809), we are studying his life. As we all know, he was a very fascinating man.I had read/heard stories about him when I was a child, but there are so many more stories about him and his life that I had never heard.
The internet study resources are almost limitless!
As I type, we are listening to "OUT OF THE WILDERNESS" from Homeschool Radio Shows.
"We meet Lincoln's parents, Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks, hear the story of their courtship and marriage, and their trials and tribulations as they carve their first homestead out of the then-wilderness known as Kentucky. "
This link has a lot of information about Lincoln, videos to watch, and nice printables for the kids to complete. The boys are working on papers as they listen.
