Frolic and Farce: Simple Machines--Pulleys

Simple Machines--Pulleys

The books we used:

How to Catapult a Castle by James De Winter.

Move It! Work It!: A Song About Simple Machines by Laura Purdie Salas.

Heavy Equipment: Cranes by David and Patricia Armentrout. (No pic available).

Simple Devices: The Pulley by Patricia Armentrout. (No pic available.)

Our pulley pulled up many things. One of my children's favorite simple machine so far. Go figure.

Hello! I am a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom of eight children (ages 13, 11, 10, 7, 5, 3, 1, and 8 months). In my previous existence I taught school--primarily history and English, but also ESL, and, during one bizarre year, math. I started teaching in a middle school where I discovered the hilarity of seventh graders and then later I moved to a high school and taught tenth and eleventh graders. I eventually switched again to the Education Department at Weber State University where I taught several ESL courses and a social studies methods course for elementary teachers. Writing curriculum is one of my passions. Sharing good books is another. Homeschooling--with all the frustration, fulfillment, frolic, and farce that it engenders--is another.

If you need me, send me a note: nativoyoung [at] gmail [dot] com.
