Looking For Another Author

CBSB Homeschool is looking for a dedicated home school parent (or two) who would like to become a regular contributer to this blog.

This is a non-paid position.

As a regular contributer, you would write articles about homeschooling, write and submit lesson plans, and submit free homeschooling resources to the site.  We would require that you could submit at least one article a month to be a regular contributer, but would welcome more articles a month.

Again this would be a non-paid position but would be something you would do out of a love for homeschooling children and because you want other parents to have access to the resources you have and access to your knowledge of homeschooling.

If you would like to become a contributer, please leave a comment below.  Make sure you are signed in to your Google or blogger account so that we know how to get a hold of you.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Science - Earthquakes/Tsunamis

Earthquakes and Tsunami's go hand in hand, which is why I have combined the two topics into one post.  Below you will find resources to teach your student about these two topics, starting with a short playlist of videos found on Youtube.  As always I would suggest that the parent watches the videos ahead of time so that they can prepare for any questions their child will have when watching them.
