The following are the updates to donnayoung.org from May 7, 2009 through June 20, 2009 I have added many new pages since May. Colonial Planner The Colonial Planner has files for both homeschooling and household use. The files are spread over four web pages: Calendars: https://donnayoung.org/forms/planners/colonial-calendars.htm Homeschool: https://donnayoung.org/forms/planners/colonial-homeschool.htm Household: https://donnayoung.org/forms/planners/colonial-household.htm Journals: https://donnayoung.org/forms/planners/colonial-journals.htm Note: The homeschool planners have 6 columns instead of the usual 5 columns. Handwriting and Tracing Shapes https://donnayoung.org/penmanship/shapes.htm This is a small tracing/handwriting set. It's for children learning shapes: circle, oval, rectangle, square, and triangle. Coloring Shapes https://donnayoung.org/art/colors-shapes.htm This small set, just four worksheets at this time, is intended to aid the child in following directions, recognizing shapes and colors. Color Names https://donnayoung.org/art/k-1-colors.htm Some worksheets that are about colors, color names and handwriting. Shapes and Counting https://donnayoung.org/math/counting-shapes.htm More shapes: This set of 12 files is aimed at counting up to 21.

Drawing Ia: Line Angle and Position https://donnayoung.org/art/draw1-younger.htm This set of worksheets is similar to my drawing 1a set, but this set has simpler shapes.

Drawing With Children https://donnayoung.org/art/draw-w-children.htm Drawing With Children, a book that teaches drawing - I've written a bit about the book and have gone over the first chapter - Lesson One.

Lesson one overview: https://donnayoung.org/art/draw-w-children-l1.htm Lessons for Lesson One: https://donnayoung.org/art/draw-w-children-l1-lessons.htm A friend ask me if I was going to continue with the remaining lessons in the book.
