Welcome to the Living Learning Moments meme! The story of how it came about is below! If your children would like to or have a chance to participate, they are most welcome! This meme will be a part of our children’s home school this year, and we love to share!
The meme will be posted on Thursdays, at both Eric’s and Hannah’s blogs.
There are no particular ages, and it is open to boys and girls.
It is particularly made for home school students, but not closed to non-home schoolers.

Living Learning Moments Meme Story
I used to participate in a weekly journaling meme. Way back then, a year ago, I guess, my younger daughter and my son who blog had asked me if they could also participate. I told them no, but I would make up some different, home school-related questions for them to do as a meme on their own blogs. With good intentions and not a lot of time, I made up the questions and started taking some photos for an icon for a meme.
That was months ago…..
….
They did a few of them, and because we then had no internet access for them weekly, they haven’t kept up on it. I have been promising I would get it up for them for this school year, and today, as they start, we would like to invite you to also participate.
Living Learning Moments is a name I coined after I started blogging. I was using Teachable Moments, and when I discovered that that was already copyrighted in use, I stopped using it and started LLM. Our home school is based on the term I coined, Living Learning Moments Home School, and I decided it would be a great name for their meme.
Thanks for participating, and if you are interested in more home school blogging activities, please read about Blogging to Learn. We also have online US History Assignments 2009 that you are welcome to join us in.

Whoops! The type size is so small that I did not notice the ‘O’ at the end of your name. I thought I’d left a ‘~’

A meme is usually weekly, themed post that each person does on their own sites. Like the Saturday Psalm and Praise meme is themed to post a Psalm or Praise to our Lord. There is a Wordless Wednesday Meme that people post with just a picture without words. there are many different memes to participate in.

I just realized I’ve missed this! I was waiting for it and here it is two months later and I just found you were doing it! (I’m horrible at keeping up with blogs…even with the readers!) I promised my daughter she could participate in this once it started, so she is going to join you! Yay!

Wonderful Christin! Don’t worry about not joining us. I honestly have not had time to make sure they keep up on the memes…

I will let Hannah and Eric know she is participating, and I know that will make them happy!

Oh I understand! You JUST had a baby! Don’t worry. But yes, we will join you Thursday. She has seen the prompts so is thinking them over before writing.
She loves to blog but I haven’t given her a consistent schedule to do it. (Plus, she’s still young at just 7, there’s really no rush!)
I’m hoping to get her a typing program and child sized keyboard soon so that will benefit her blogging ability as well.
Blessings!

Hi Loni,
I just copied the code from inside the box and put it into the html and it worked. Do you know how to do that? Check to see that the http:// is complete. It should look like this:
with no spaces before or after the arrows > <
If not, you can copy the image and paste it into a post, and use it in the posts and/or get the html and use that in your sidebar.
Shalom!

Yes, thank you… I copied and pasted it again, but when I go to click on it it doesn’t take me anywhere? I am overlooking something

Oh, I found it…thank you! Now it links back
Halea and I went over Joycelyn’s guidelines for blogging, as they were much like we have already discussed, but it is nice for her to have a printout.
She will be using llm, us, and countires for schooling. I was trying to find the saturday Psalm, but haven’t found it yet… is there still a button for that? I have not seen it in quit some time now…
Thank you for all you do!
Shalom =)

ahhh… there is a button, though I have renamed it and just asked Jocelyn to make me another if she gets time to. You will find it here: http://jacquedixon.com/?page_id=297
You can use that one, as we will just upload a new one to replace it.
I also just said that I need to start doing that again too… and having Eric and Hannah and Rachel to do them too!
I need to get the States and Countries up-to-date too…. I think Rachel can be in charge of that!
Shalom!
