Planning Resources
Teachers need lots of resources! Here is a comprehensive list of planning resources that we used alongside our Masterplan when just starting up our homeschool preschool. For elementary, we are using the free curriculum guide found at Simply Charlotte Mason.
Little Lambs Monthly Lesson Plans
We post lesson plans before each month starts for anyone who wants to do a Charlotte Mason type preschool/early elementary at home. Our preschool monthly plans loosely follow a preselected theme from our Masterplan. You will find our plans in “Monthly Lesson Plans” under Categories on the main menu (home page).

Online Places to Buy Supplies:
Rainbow Resource
Really great learning supplies/toys for home schooling! Their 1300-page catalog has very helpful detailed product reviews, and is free by request, or to download from their site. Look up “early learning” products for great preschool learning materials. From what I have seen, their prices are better than amazon!
Oriental Trading
A wide assortment of inexpensive novelties, craft supplies, toys, party supplies, etc.
