May-07 Donnayoung.org Updates
There is not a lot to report although I feel like I have been busy. Leah Mitchell redid (tweaked) her Exploring Creation with General Science co-op schedule. The schedule is in both word and pdf format and it is linked on the co-op schedule web page. Thank you Leah! 
I have made two bug movies, one was added several days ago and I added another one today. The are linked on the new page here: Bug Movies. The movies are described on the bug movie page so I will not repeat that here. I hope that your children enjoy the bug movies.
Today, along with the second bug movie, I added a brief page on insect anatomy that leads to another brief part about drawing a bug. The content is around perhaps a 3rd-4th grade level and it is not as complete as I would like it to be. I will probably add more later.
At this time and unless I change my mind, the bug movies will be treated as seasonal content and will be taken down by the end of June and reintroduced next spring.
That is all for now. I expect to be very busily not working on donnayoung.org during the next three weeks. I have several not donnayoung.org projects going on here at home. I’ll be back.
See you later!
Sincerely,
Donna Young
My son made a lovely little Mother’s Day card for me 14 years ago. The card has a rose covered with two sepals that can be opened. He wrote the message, "My love is blooming for you mom" on the sepals. Files to make the card are provided on the web page linked about.
That is just so cool!
I am sending the link to a friend who hates science and bugs. 
I hope she is not eating when she looks at the link.
Ok, I saw the first movie before and now I’ll go check out the new one. Not big on either bugs or science but seeing as they are on the internet and cannot hurt me (I know that you would never do anything to hurt someone, Donna, so that eases my fears greatly) so I’m willing to watch.
See said she just deleted the link, without looking. So, I took the opportunity to tell her that she was a bad homeschooling mom. She has decided to show it to her children.
I’m such a good friend.
Definitely good enough for a repeat performance!
I hope you enjoy your “not donnayoung.org projects”!
Michelle, I am glad to know that there is another home school mom out there that hates science!!!

Donna,
You are a blessing to all home schooling families! The Lord has blessed you with a wonderful talent. Thank you for sharing with others!! I have been home schooling my son for 1 1/2 years now. When I first started, I was totally confused and didn’t know where to begin. I started with your website and we have had great success. You have helped more than you’ll every know!
Thank you so much!
Thanks Barbara, I’ll have to look into the blog linkie button thing and see what I can find.
Tracy you are very welcome and thank you for your words.
Donna,
I just wanted to let you know what a tremendous help your website and printables have been to our family. I just discovered your blog and look forward to visiting again, especially since we’re using Apologia’s Exploring Creation with Zoology this year. I’m excited!!
Blessings,
Mrs. C
Thank you Mrs. C.
