The Frugal Homeschool

There is no reason why homeschooling has to be expensive. In fact, there will be times when you just don't have the money to buy the curriculum that you need / want. During those times you will need to utilize some creative purchasing techniques and a frugal homeschool list like this one.

Mona Melissa Human Body Set

A very useful product is Mona Melisa Designs Human Body Set which has provided the perfect supplement to our homeschool science curriculum.

Our elementary school is doing Apologia’s Exploring Creation through Anatomy & Physiology this year. One of the activities during this class is the children put together a personal person project. They layer several of the human body’s system on top of each other. It’s a great project. I wanted to be able to help them complete it and provide an example for them. I’d like

Review of Handwriting Without Tears K: Letters and Numbers For Me

We have used a couple of other handwriting programs over the years. But I’ve got to say that Handwriting Without Tears (HWT) is my favorite. After my experience with the twins HWT has come through for me again. We have very different five-year-old boy/girl twins. Our sweet little girl has had all sorts of fine/gross motor skills problems. So when we began HWT this year there was

Ready Readers Review

I was looking for a way to really dig deep into some literature with our children. However, I was met with the reality that I didn’t have the time to really teach literature the way that I really wanted to do. So, basically in despair, I began to look for really good literature guides and I ran across the Center for Lit which is run

A.C.E. Word Building

We have been using Accelerated Christian Education (ACE) in our homeschool for about three years with all the children (except the twins who are too young). Although I was skeptical at first, we have great success using the program. You may read my Review of ACE English which details my thoughts about the program. Several years ago when I first saw ACE I thought it was too

Review: Classical Composition by Memoria Press

Over the years I have used several writing curricula including Writing Strands, Writing and Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW). Last year our Co-op switched from IEW (which is a great program also) to Classical Composition by Memoria Press. I will still introduce writing to our younger students  using IEW but we will move them into Classical Composition as they enter the 4th grade. What is

Homeschool Bible Studies

Daily Prayer With Children

The most important subject we will cover in our homeschools is the Bible. Not that the Bible is simply a book to study, because it isn’t, it is a relationship to uncover. Through it God has made himself known and we have the privilege of making Him known to those small people he has entrusted to us. Of all the things we teach the one
