CURRICULUM

I found this at a friend’s blog, April of ElCloud Homeschool: Walking In His Ways:
“I just downloaded this free sled dog lapbook by Hands of a Child at the Homeschool E-Store, and I plan to use it during the Iditarod sled dog race, which begins March 1st.

You can also find more activities at the Iditarod website.

Below are a few other Iditarod links to explore if you want to study the Iditarod this year:

While you’re at the Homeschool E-Store, look around at their other great curriculum and e-books.” Thanks April!
