Morning Time Is Better Together

Morning Time goes by many names: circle time, morning basket, even symposium. Our time learning together anchors and defines our homeschool. Better Together by Pam Barnhill has been a breath of fresh air to our well-established practice.

Morning Time goes by many names: circle time, morning basket, even symposium. In our home this time is anchored by our history study.  We read aloud from our spine book, look at maps, and have rollicking discussions.  From this firm foundation, we move into individual skill work in language arts and math.  But our time learning together anchors and defines our homeschool.

Handwriting Without Tears Cursive Success

What I believe sets Handwriting Without Tears Cursive Success apart form all others is its ease of use. It truly does take the tears out of handwriting. It uses a vertical style approach and most children develop a vertical stroke first when learning to print.

King Alfred’s English by Laurie J. White

This year I was looking for a way to teach my girls about the English language without teaching grammar itself.  I wanted to give them an understanding of its beauty and history so that they would learn to love it and also be able to use it more skillfully. And then I was offered King Alfred’s English to review.  What a perfect resource to meet
