Catholic – The Treasured Schoolhouse

It’s Cyber Monday!

Hello all and Happy Holidays!

I hope that you had a very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving. Are you all gearing up for Christmas now? Do you have your tree up yet? This year, we’ve opted not to do a Christmas tree. Our daughter is a wise one and said that it’s been stressful the past couple years and we should just find something simpler to do. She’s an adult that loves Christmas as much as I do, but her words made sense. We have a lighted ceramic tree (white) sitting on a little table that normally has to be put up at Christmas. I put a tree skirt over the table and placed the tree in the center of it. It’s actually really nice and comforting. I still have my nativities everywhere! I have so many different kinds and they’re all special to me.

Are you getting ready to keep the kids busy over Christmas break? Or, are you looking for some ideas to do in class or at home until break starts? Maybe you need something to have ready for the new year. I have the perfect solution! It’s time for Cyber Monday and all my shops are on sale for 20% off!

You can visit The Treasured Schoolhouse at….

Made by Teachers – Extra 5% off at checkout with no code needed

Classful – 20% off at checkout

TeachersPayTeachers – Extra 5% off with code CYBER22

Amazon Ignite – Marked at 20% off

I hope that you can find some materials that you need and can use. Remember, if I don’t have what you need, I do accept requests. I’m happy to help in any way that I can. Happy Shopping!

Have a Very Merry and Blessed Christmas!

I know, that’s probably not the question that you want to see. But yes, it is getting to be that time again. Time to return to the classroom, homeschool, Sunday School….or whatever and wherever you teach. Summer went much too fast for me. And yes I realize that I became lax in my blogging again. Let’s hope that I return to my monthly blog post schedule! HAHA

New and Updated

Hello all!

I just want to give you some updates about what’s been going on. Since I posted that I was updating some of the FREEbie resources on the site, I’ve been busy scouring to find the original documents. The first day, I was able to do quite a few and I posted those updates below the post.

I’ve gone through the site and I’ve added “image not available” to many of the posts because I wasn’t able to easily find the original pictures or replace them with something similar. I’m not done though, as I have other back-up drives that I can dig out. It’s just going to be a timely process. Obviously, I haven’t found all my original files either.

Just a reminder that some of the resources are no longer on the blog as I’ve removed them and added them to my store. Not all of them, of course. Hopefully when I’m done with this, you’ll still have a great choice of FREEbies.

One thing that I want to do is try to find some balance with what I offer. Right now, I tend to add whatever extra FREEbies that I have to the Resource Library that is just for my newsletter subscribers. That said, there’s not even as many in there as I’d like there to be. So that’s where my balance comes in….adding some to the site and some to the Library.

With all that said, I do come bearing gifts. This is an old file that I found and the best that I could tell, I haven’t shared it anyplace (except maybe my old Y!Group). I left the original date on it, but I did update it and make it “prettier” so that I could share it with you. My, I’ve come a long way in creating resources! HAHA This FREEbie is a simple set of concentration or memory match cards for Communion. It’s various images of the Body of Christ. I hope that you can use and enjoy this little game. Oh, did I mention that it has a storage box for the cards too? If you’d like to download it, just….

I won’t always be able to post that I’ve updated something, so if you’re looking for something in particular just keep an eye on that post or leave a comment about what you’re needing. You can also reach out to me on social media or e-mail.

Let’s Talk About Blogging

If you’ve followed me for any length of time, you know that I’m not great at blogging. I swear that I’m going to do better and it’s not that I don’t try, but it just doesn’t happen. I used to love to blog. Then I think it began to feel like work to me. I wasn’t sure it was worth it. I know that many of you have followed me for years and I truly appreciate it. It takes time and patience to read blogs or even to read the newsletters from the blog.

I recently watched a class on blogging and it made me realize how very much I miss it. Plus, I know that I have this amazing following that has stuck by me through it all. So now, what’s this woman to do?

Well, I’m going to make an honest effort to get back into blogging. I know better than to make promises. I’m going to start slow and work my way up. For now, I’m going to start at one blog post a month and see if I can do that consecutively for a couple of months. Yes, ONE post a month now. I’ve got to start someplace! If I can do that, I’m going to move up to blogging twice a month. I’d really love to maintain that. How does that sound to all of you?

My ultimate goal will be to blog once a week….or 4 times a month. I don’t know if that’s possible for me. I’m constantly going different directions and blogging is going to require my focus. The good news is that I can get it all typed out and schedule it to post! Oh my goodness, imagine this blog and this site active again. We’ll have to see and well, I feel good about this right now!

So what I need from all of you is to know what you’d like to see. Of course, I’m going to blog about the things that I love. I’d like your opinion too. Leave a comment on this post and let me know what you’d like to see from me. It can be about a topic, how to use a product, life, photography, religion/religious education, and well, just about anything that might interest you. I’ll do it, if it’s within my power or realm of knowledge. If it’s something that I don’t know about or something, I’ll let you know. I promise, I won’t just ignore you! Again, reply to this post about what type of things would interest you to see here.

Oh and yes, more frequent blogging will probably mean a few more freebies posted on the blog/site and in the “For Subscribers ONLY” area.

Here’s to the future of blogging….well, ME blogging!

A New Subscriber FREEbie

I know that it’s been forever and I appreciate all of you that continue to support and follow The Treasured Schoolhouse. I don’t know why, but no matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to keep up with my blog. Actually, I don’t seem to be good at much on social media!

This year, I’m teaching my religion class via ZOOM. It’s been interesting to say the least. Since I have Kindergarten, I’m sending packets home to the parents for the students to work on. It’s gone pretty well so far. I do have a couple kids that have never shown up. It has been a challenge to get the copies run and in the mail on time for the classes though, so I decided that I was going to do one huge pack for the rest of the year! I was a couple lesson short, so I decided I’d create something for them to do.

What I came up with what the parable of The Lost Sheep. I made everything that I’ll need for class. The best part, I’m sharing it with my newsletter subscribers ONLY! All verses in the pack are based on New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE) of the Bible. This pack includes:

Word Search
Maze
Copywork for Matthew 18:10 and Luke 15:7 to print and trace
Coloring Pages for Matthew 18:12-13 and Luke 15:5-6
Answer Keys for Word Search and Maze

If you’d like to get this pack, you can go to the Home page or the right sidebar to subscribe to my newsletter. You’ll receive the password in the confirmation e-mail, so please be sure to confirm in order to have access to the Subscriber Only page!

Thanks again for following along, no matter how much or low little it is. I appreciate you more than you know!

Cyber Monday

This year has gone by so fast. I can’t believe that Thanksgiving has already come and gone. I hope that you all are doing well and staying healthy. I’ve been busy creating lots of new activities to help you and your kids with their religious education. There’s many new things listed at The Treasured Schoolhouse and I hope that if you haven’t already seen them, that you’ll check them out soon.

Since the year has gone by so fast, and we’re past both Thanksgiving and Black Friday, it’s time for Cyber Monday! Cyber Monday means that it’s time for a sale!

All of The Treasured Schoolhouse stores will be on sale for 20% off on 30 November and 1 December. Yes….every single resource in my shops are on sale! You can find The Treasured Schoolhouse at….

TeachersPayTeachers – 20% off plus an extra 5% off with code CYBER20

Made by Teachers – 20% off (I had trouble scheduling this one, so I’m not sure if it’s going to work or not.)

Teacher’s Dojo – 20% off

Amazon Ignite – 20% off (Amazon automatically sets this one, so it starting depends on them.)

I want to tell you about a few new things at The Treasured Schoolhouse….

First, there’s the Our Lady (Marian) series that I’m working on. When completed, there will be at least one pack per month of activities to do for Marian celebrations. Currently available are the Queenship of Mary, Our Lady of Fatima, Our Lady of Sorrows, and several more! I’m currently working on Our Lady of Guadalupe for her celebration in December.

Also for December is St. Nicholas Day and I have an activity pack for that. There’s lots of things for kids of all ages to do. Last year, I made a similar pack for St. Lucia Day. Now that they’re both done, there’s a bundle available that include both packs and it’s 20% off the individual prices. But guess what!? With the Cyber Monday sale, you can get an additional 20% that already discounted price!

I’ve also been working on some Math Packs. I made a new one for Halloween with candy corn and one for December/Christmas with candy canes. I really had fun making those and hope that early learners love them as much as I do!

Some other new materials to note, I finished the “people in the Bible” series. It now includes Fathers, Mothers, and Children in the Bible. I love these resources! I’ve also added to the “family tree” series by adding Noah and Adam. There’s an Inside the Church Bingo Game and 3-Part Montessori Cards.

So please don’t miss this opportunity to grab some great deals! I hope that you all have a very Happy and Blessed Holiday Season!

Our Father

Do you work with your kids on their prayers? Learning and even memorizing prayers can be hard for children to do.

A few years ago, I had made a sequencing mat to put the Our Father in order. This helps children learn the proper order of the prayer. A reader asked me if I still had this available and sadly I had to tell her “no”. Well that didn’t make me happy, so I went digging through a very old back-up drive and found it! I was able to make a slight update to it and I’m able to share it with you all!

If you’re interested in this sequencing mat, Just click on the cover image above to download it. I hope that this helps your kids and makes it fun for them to learn the Our Father.
