A Beka Language 4 Writing samples

A Beka English/Language is set up a little different from BJU.  The writing units from which this is taken is quite long.  The writing section is basically section 1(out of 4) of the whole book, which includes 6 units:  Recognizing and Writing Good Sentences, Punctuating Your Writing, Capitalizing Important Words, Writing Letters, Something to Write About, and The Writing Process...102 pages to be exact.  Here are samples from the last 2 units within this section:

BJU English 6 writing samples

Some fellow homeschooling friends of mine wanted to see a sample lesson of how BJU writing is set up.  We homeschoolers like to see thorough samples before we buy, and the online samples given to us in BJU English only show some brief grammar teaching.  So here ya go ladies!  This is from the 6th grade English, chapter 12, lesson 111-117.  The other elementary grades are set up similarly, but with grade appropriate content and expectations.  This blog is proving to be quite useful! :)

ACE 11th grade U.S. History Samples

I'm already beginning to collect curriculum for next year, can you believe it?  Well, when you come across an unbeatable deal, one must snatch it up, right?  I got our 11th grade ACE U.S. History PACES used, but in like new condition, for a great deal.  They are in perfect condition, actually- no writing at all.  I thought I'd post some samples for those other homeschoolers out there who have been longing to see samples of this newly updated course.  Sister Strings will be using this for next year along with adding in some historical fiction and biographies to go along.  Here are some samples.  The samples are not that great, but you can get a general idea of how colorful and informative these newer PACES are.  I just randomly picked some pages for you to see.  Have a look:
