I don’t know about you guys, but math is one of those subjects that I just really don’t prefer to teach. Give me a good history lesson any day, but math…ugh. While it may not be fun to teach it is necessary, and also quite important! I really want...

I have always been intrigued by history. Our favorite way to learn about history, in fact, is not from textbooks but from real, living books, biographies, autobiographies, and personal experiences. Learning about the history of my family is something that I’ve...

My kids have been wanting to go see the Croods ever since it first came out. I hesitated because I really wasn’t sure how it would be presented. I knew that it was going to be about early man, and expected it to be very evolutionary in content. My expectations...

I’ve always been what I would consider an eclectic homeschooler. Maybe it’s because I have such a hard time making up my mind about things. There are things I love from Classical Homeschooling and other aspects I love from the Charlotte Mason Method. We...
