Well Educated Heart Rotation Resources
If you are not familiar with a Well Educated Heart, I highly recommend you check it out. It has been a life changing learning experience for myself and my children. The idea is to layer your learning of history and the world by revisiting the same subjects every year in a rotation. These are a collection of resources I have come across that go along with the Rotation study to enrich our learning here at home. Many of these come from my faith's monthly children's magazine.
