Check out these incredible videos. The footage is amazing!
Some of these videos come with a strongly pro evolution bias. I use the videos because they have such fantastic footage. I do not agree with the evolution narrative the way it is portrayed in the Shape of Life series and I encourage parents to have a discussion with their children about the origins of the world and worldview if they haven't already. There is no equal to the footage quality in this series so I continue to use them until an alternative is available.

For adults and youth.
$55 with coupon from our Facebook Group. We are so excited about the Media Team that is forming at the new Firmly Planted Homeschool Resource Center! Young people have already written scripts, held auditions, and will soon be recording their scripts in our new studio! We believe that some of these productions will end up airing on Christian radio stations around the world.
Because we are trying to “jump-start” our media team, we are offering a group discount! If we can get 5 students registered for the Storytelling 101 class by this Friday, we will offer the class for $25 (+Admin Fees)! Normally it is $100! If you would like to take advantage of our “groupon”, please email back before Friday night and let us know. We’ll only register your student for the class if more than five others also register and the price drops to $25. The entry into our media team is through our Storytelling 101 class. However, this class isn’t just for young adults who want to make an audio drama, it will be a huge benefit to adults of any age that want to write a book, a short story, audio/video drama or any other tale that shares an eternal message. We would love to have your student in class! UPDATE: 5 Students have already registered! Contact Pat Roy today with questions and email Carol VanBoxtel at Carol@fpfam.org to get your student registered.

$0.00
Have you ever wanted to try making your own arrowheads from obsidian? Join us as we learn the skills necessary from Nicholas Tomihama (The Backyard Bowyer) and others.
Ages: This activity is not good for young children as it involves sharp natural glass that gets everywhere. Responsible students 3rd grade and older will be the most successful. Younger kids will need constant parent supervision for safety, but are welcome to attend as part of the family. All youth must take directions and safety seriously or they will be asked to sit out. When: Usually the first Tuesday of every month. From 6:30-7:30pm Here are the fall dates: August 6, September 3, October 8 (not the 1st Tuesday), November 5, December 4 (not the 1st Tuesday), spring dates TBD. Cost: A free club to join! Register here through our shopping cart to join the club so we know to keep you up to date then you may choose to attend any of the monthly knappings. The materials and equipment are provided including safety equipment if you can not provide your own. Please recognize the rock material is free to pick up, but does cost a fair bit in fuel and time to acquire and the purchase and maintenance of our equipment does carry a cost. If you feel led to do so please make a donation at the time of the meeting (knapping) via check or cash. We are counting on your gifts to keep this club going and make it accessible to everyone. At least one parent/guardian must be present with each youth under 18 years of age. If the weather is good the knapping will happen outside, if it is poor it will be indoors, or in a tent. Location: Glen's Gizmos Homeschool HUB Adults may join without youth. Especially in this case please recognize Glen's Gizmos is a Christian organization. We don't require participants to be Christian to attend our events, however we do ask that your words and actions are positive and not contradicting basic Christian principles as outlined in the Bible. This includes but is not limited to religious practices, interaction with youth, being sober, no drugs/alcohol, appropriate dress and language (no swearing or vulgar/disrespectful content). Remember children will be present. If at anytime a Glen's Gizmos staff or official volunteers feel a participant poses a threat to others spiritual, emotional or physical safety they will be asked to leave, and must leave immediately. After selecting the number of family members who are likely to attend knappings please leave the "Quantity" at 1 for one family. Sand Dollar Study (Sept 6)
