Girdwood Partners has developed and introduced an educational program called
WeeBeeTunes Travel Adventures.
WeeBeeTunes teaches kids about places around the world through music and
animation. It is built around travel episodes, each an original song that
visits a unique destination. The WeeBeeTunes travel friends, seven animals
indigenous to the seven continents, serve as hosts on these animated travel
episodes. The scope of the program is based on the 18 National Geography
Standards published by the National Council for Geographic Education.
Products are available on CD, DVD, and VHS. The first release in the
WeeBeeTunes series, entitled "Get Your Passport!", was in November 2001.
"The Journey Continues!", the second title in the series, was released
this past October. WeeBeeTunes products are increasingly distributed across
the country. All products are also available online at
www.weebeetunes.com and at Amazon.com.

This is Paul Reinbold - inventor / author / professor. Currently on a
year "leave of absence" from my college teaching position.
In 1992 I invented a science teaching aid that has been recognized by top
educators in the public education sector and is now becoming noticed more
& more by the Homeschool Educator as an "Outstanding Science Teaching
Aid" since it does so much and is so visually exciting for children to
use. We have a number of testimonials on our website:
http://www.TeachingTank.com
especially an awesome review written by Gene Suarez - Publisher of The
Old Schoolhouse Magazine/Newsletter.
We know that the homeschool family would like to make the teaching and
learning of Science exciting and fun for their children.
A credentialed teacher, Rima Kleinbaum, would like everyone to know she's available for tutoring language arts and math grades 1- 7. Her phone number is (818) 889-0072.
Online Writing Classes
for High School Students
Few skills we can provide our
teenagers are as important as sound writing skills. The College Board
recently acknowledged this truth by announcing the addition of a writing
element to the SAT. Many home educators struggle to evaluate their
children's writing because it is such a subjective area of study.
WriteAtHome provides
homeschooling families with an individualized, comprehensive writing
curriculum for high school students that is flexible enough to accommodate
any schedule. We offer parents an expert third party to
both assess and assist their children in the process of writing. We use
21st Century technology to provide students with:
Our Writing Coaches all
have experience in English education or professional writing, in most
cases both. Our tuition is affordable, and we offer convenient
payment options.
We hope we can be of
service to you and those in your organization. Please visit our web site (www.writeathome.net)
and feel free to pass on this information. If you have any questions, you
