Jessica’s Tips for Original Volumes
Moms who choose volumes are usually confident free-spirits. They enjoy going to library to pick their books, have a closet full or easy access to crafting stuff, want a general guide to daily schedule/pace without sacrificing family flexibility, and love to learn along with their kids. Original Volume and Volume Packages offer the most bang for your bucks!
Jessica’s Tips for Volume II
All Volumes have activities K-8th grade BUT if you think of a seesaw, Volume 2 is equally balanced between younger and older activities.
Volume 2 has among other units a thread of American history beginning with Inquisitiveness-Explorers, Responsibility-Settlers, Courage-American Revolution, Wisdom-Constitutional Fathers, and Loyalty-Political Process all learned in unforgettable hands-on activities. Gwen in CA sent me her kids video of THEIR reenacted American Revolution! WOW! Produced by kids but incredibly professional! That’s KONOS kids for you!
