Homeschool, Pennsylvania, portfolio

Another slightly odd homeschool portfolio requirement in Pennsylvania is “regular and continuous instruction in the dangers and prevention of fires.”  Thankfully, I have an evaluator who is very flexible with how we fulfill that requirement, and I honestly didn’t want to waste much time on it this year.

So again, it turned into something we threw in at the last minute.

Pennsylvania Homeschool Lessons

Field Trips, Homeschool, Pennsylvania, portfolio

Part of our portfolio requirements is that we cover the “Pennsylvania history” as one of our required subjects. Thankfully, I have an evaluator who is very flexible with how we fulfill that requirement.

I don’t really have an issue with teaching state history really, but having as a requirement that we have to prove is pretty annoying. Also, the fact that we have to prove that we teach it every year. What if “Pennsylvania History” doesn’t fit in with your curriculum design for one year? For us, since we’re focusing on World Geography, and not a historical timeline, it feels a bit out of place and sequence. I could see this being an issue when trying to teach about ancient Greece as well.Of course, when we were focusing on US history and geography it would have been an easy tie-in.

And so, it ends up being a throw in.

For this year, we focused on field trips to learn about Pennsylvania. Being new, pretty much all sightseeing we have done would easily fill in for these requirements.

The Liberty Bell

Also: Glencairn Museum Field Trip

I kept a list of our field trips and then printed them out for the portfolio.

But just so I’d have something “more” to put in that particular section, we did a few worksheets.

The Proverbs 31 Woman (nasb)

Description of a Worthy Woman

An excellent wife, who can find?
For her worth is far above jewels.
The heart of her husband trusts in her,
And he will have no lack of gain.
She does him good and not evil
All the days of her life.
She looks for wool and flax
And works with her hands in delight.
She is like merchant ships;
She brings her food from afar.
She rises also while it is still night
And gives food to her household
And portions to her maidens.
She considers a field and buys it;
From her earnings she plants a vineyard.
She girds herself with strength
And makes her arms strong.
She senses that her gain is good;
Her lamp does not go out at night.
She stretches out her hands to the distaff,
And her hands grasp the spindle.
She extends her hand to the poor,
And she stretches out her hands to the needy.
She is not afraid of the snow for her household,
For all her household are clothed with scarlet.
She makes coverings for herself;
Her clothing is fine linen and purple.
Her husband is known in the gates,
When he sits among the elders of the land.
She makes linen garments and sells them,
And supplies belts to the tradesmen.
Strength and dignity are her clothing,
And she smiles at the future.
She opens her mouth in wisdom,
And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
She looks well to the ways of her household,
And does not eat the bread of idleness.
Her children rise up and bless her;
Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:
"Many daughters have done nobly,
But you excel them all."
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
Give her the product of her hands,
And let her works praise her in the gates.
