    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Jan. 1, 2016)
    The Thinking Tree ~ 12 Subject Portfolio - Home, Library & Internet Based Curriculum Handbook & Study Guide: A High Level Learning Plan for Organized Home Education ’ B1,B2, C1, C2 ideal for ages 9-17, (grades 3rd- 12th grade) This beautiful portfolio is designed to be used along with library books, audio books, tutorials, documentaries, and classical music. With over 400 pages, this book is designed primarily for Middle and High School students but can be adapted for any age. Make record keeping for your homeschool easy and create a beautiful keepsake in the process. Cover 12 subjects in one convenient journal. You’ll cover: Science, History, Geography & Travel, Math, Business & Technology, Language Arts, Literature & Copywork, The Arts, Social Studies, Films & Tutorials, Home Economics, and Projects. This plan is perfect for struggling readers and learners. Uses a Dyslexia friendly font to help students with letter confusion and reversal. Juniper is using this with students of a variety of ages: “My elementary students are using the library based journal with their lit-heavy curriculum, but it seemed too basic for my high school student. This turned out to be a great companion for high school! It is wonderful to have his writing across subjects in one place, he is having an easier time with organization and is taking charge of his education with less intervention from me. It's what I wanted for my kids when we began our homeschool journey. If your kids are old enough to read alone and start taking charge of their own education, I highly recommend this portfolio.” Janet says: “If you are homeschooling your kids and live in a "Portfolio" State, this is a great resource to put everything together for an evaluation from a certified teacher. This book is broken up into 12 different subjects and has pages that prompt where to write down science experiments, history, etc. Instead of lugging a ton of different bins, etc. to your evaluator have your child put everything together in this. I can also see this as a way to compile transcripts for a college interview. This might have your student stand out above the rest if you have this all put together to show everything they have accomplished/learned to gain entry into college if that's your path. Ideally designed for Middle School and High School students.” (January 1, 2016) ISBN-10: 1523266457 ISBN-13: 978-1523266456 This Portfolio includes twelve subjects that are relevant, flexible and traditional.
