- I DO hope you'll join me -
Now. . . . . . . .
I am absolutely beside myself to have the honor of giving away what I consider to be
one of the best giveaways - like- ever
You've heard me brag before about the Geo Matters Curriculum,
and you know there isn't much more that we love around here besides exploring.
Well - this week I'm giving away
(drum-roll)
The
Paths of Exploration
The value of this curriculum, in my opinion, is far above the $150.00 cost!
Not only does it include a full year's course for your 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, but it is adaptable for
2nd and 6th grade as well. Not only does this Geo Matters curriculum teach geography, but also science, history, language skills, and the arts. It takes your students on a journey to discover the how's and why's
of our nations beginning. They learn about our countries greatest explorers in a way that motivates them to learn more. The goal of Paths of Exploration and the other Trail Guide to Learning series is to "teach your children How to think and not just What to think."
My children love it!
I love it!
From my personal experience in our home, I can tell you that it works.
I love the dialogue this program has opened up in our home as we read stories from real books
(not just text books) about people from history and then do more of the hands on activities, science projects, or related lapbooks to solidify their learning experience. They are not just reading about a certain character, but about where they are from, more details about the state and the surrounding circumstances - history comes alive for them as the learning unfolds in this manner and they begin to understand the bigger picture.
*I have been provided a free ticket to the awesome TTD convention for helping to promote them, I am not receiving any compensation otherwise and the prize is drawn randomly using the Punch Tab program

I'll be there! It will be my first convention, and I am so excited about the speakers and workshops.
I would like to win POE for a friend that is desperately seeking something that will work for her children. I would love to give this to her as a gift, as mine was given to me.
Winning POE would help us with our Geo lessons, I would use it with my oldest two.
I have never used Geo matter! Is that a reason? haha! I have 6 kiddos still at home, ages 13 down to 1, so it would be well used and much appreciated!
i'd share with my HS friends until I need it in a couple of years.
This looks interesting and perfect for my kids who fall right into this grade level. Would love to give it a try:)
This looks exceptional and I'd love an opportunity to use it with my children.
Blessings,

It sounds like it would be an awesome fit for our family! Thanks for the opportunity to win :)
Blessings!
We're heading to the convention too. Looking forward to it. Tis curriculum looks like something I'd like to use with my youngest two girls. Thank you for hosting this giveaway.
I'd you use it with some of the kids at my church and then with my son when he's older.
Would love to win this because I love Geo Matters. I'd use it with my two kids.
The POE looks like a great addition for my 2 early elementary boys!
Having trouble entering but would love to win a geography program...since we don't have one. =)
I just started studying Ephesians! I'm pretty excited about it. Great job on the goals. All your homeschool pics and info make me eager for my little one to grow up so I can start homeschooling! lol
would love to use this with my 5th grader!
I have been home educating for 18 years and this is the first time I have ever seen this program! It looks amazing and I would definitely love to have some new tricks for this old dog to use with her pups!
This looks wonderful!! I would like to win because I have been on search for a history program like this. This seems like a great fit for what we have been hunting for. Thanks for hosting!
I have heard such great things about this curriculum and would love to try it with my kids! Awesome giveaway!
My boys would love this! Also, can't wait until Teach Them Diligently!
I have been reading so many good things about POE that I would love to use it with my 3 boys. I have been a fan of Geomatters for a long time!

I have heard such good things about this, and it sounds like the age range would be perfect for my two for next year or the following. We are huge adventurers here, so it would be so great!
We pulled our oldest three children out of public school during the Christmas break this year. It was a hasty - but very necessary - decision, and we did not have time or money enough to purchase decent curriculum. Since what we did purchase came on defective CD-ROMs, I have been making up all our lessons from scratch. Winning this would be a great time-saver for me!
I am a SAHM of three boys who I homeschool and this would be a great project to do!
This looks like such a good all-in-one curriculum fit for my boys. The reading mixed with hands-on would work so well. Thank you for the chance to win!
I would use them with my 8 yr old.
I homeschool my children and would love to use this with them.
I follow them on Twitter...but it wouldn't give me the extra entry for it?
Here is my tweet: https://twitter.com/#!/KatyLMA/status/174295016527773696
Thank you!
I've been looking around for something to help my kids out and POE sounds like the perfect curriculum! My kids are 11, 10 and 8 (on Sat, *sniff, sniff) and this would be perfect for all 3 of them!
Wish I could come to the convention but too far away. I would love to win this as my boys love geography.
I would like to win because I need a good Geography Curriculum and I have heard this one is great.
I think I could really like this--it seems to fit with the way we "do our learnin' here" :D I'd love to win (and go to TTD, but that's another story....) Thanks for the opportunity!

This would be PERFECT for my guy next year!!! He'll be a brand New Homeschooler for 5th grade!!
I'd LOVE to win!!!
I have been looking for a geography curriculum and this is it!

My oldest is currently using POP and loves it! I would love to use this next year with my next 4 boys.
I have been hearing many great reviews of POE and would love to give it a try with my oldest.
We are using Galloping the Globe right now and would LOVE to win this curriculum!
My oldest daughter is using POP and loves it! I would love to use POE with my 4 oldest boys.
We plan on using this curriculum, so I would love to win a copy :) !!
We would love to win. Curriculum from Geo Matters is on my wishlist. Several years of unemployment have made it hard for our wishes to come true, but we wish nonetheless! Your email entry button wasn't working (I didn't want to do the FB entry method), so I hope my comment here and liking you on FB can count as my entry.

I would love to win POE!!! Next school year I will use this with my 2nd and 4th grade munchkins!
i would love to win this! This looks like the type of learning that we like to do!
Thank you!
This looks fantastic - I would love to try this with my boy who is 6.5. Thanks!
I want to try this sooo bad- with 10 kids between 1 and 12 we need something more concise!
With 10 kids we need this! I have been drooling over this curric now for a while
I would love for the Lord to open conversations about this wonderful world He created and maybe even inspire the boys to want to learn more!
Would love to open conversations about the world God's created!

I actually want to win this so I can bless someone else with it. I already use it with my 5 kids, and really want to give it away, but can't afford to buy a second set;) BTW, I HIGHLY recommend it!
I REALLLLLLLY want to win this curriculum!!! I have looked and looked and looked at it but it is a bit pricey. Not that it's not worth it because I know it is......it's just not in our budget right now. I <3 everything about it and have been 'following' it for quite some time!
Looking forward to the conference and hoping to win some great materials for family and church.
I would love to win to relieve a burden of a friend who's husband doesn't have steady work (although he works very, very hard to provide for his family.) We had just been talking about how she wasn't sure where the money for next year's school was going to come from, but she knew God was in control and He would make things work. What a blessing it would be for them.
I haven't used or seen Geo Matters before, but I thin the Paths of Exploration would be a great fit! Thanks so much.
