An Introduction to Marguerite Henry

Growing up I read book after book. However, very few of the volumes I read are remembered or revisited. At the library I checked out whatever looked interesting: Nancy Drew mysteries, Grace Livingston Hill romance novels, or historical fiction. My random searches hid some amazing authors. Now I get to discover these imaginative writers with my children. After lunch I read aloud Brighty of the

Christmas Lessons

It’s that “most wonderful time of the year” again! Many homeschool families take the entire month of December off while others continue on with their regular school routine. In years past we have taken a break from our regular studies – even the 3R’s – to focus on some type of Christmas unit. This year, however, because of some unexpected changes in our schedule, we

The Well-Educated Mind

The Well-Educated Mind: A Guide to the Classical Education You Never Had By Susan Wise Bauer I have a small confession to make. One of the reasons I homeschool is pretty selfish. I want to homeschool because it gives me the opportunity to learn so many things that I didn’t learn in my own years of formal education. Although I have always loved to read,

Art in the Style of Eric Carle

There are many ways to incorporate art into a unit study, but one of our favorites has been to learn about and imitate the art of a particular illustrator. Last year during our study of the ocean we read A House for Hermit Crab by Eric Carle. We enjoyed the illustrations so much that we decided to try making our own art in the collage

Inspiration from Pilgrim’s Progress

If lessons are meant to be creative, mine fail. This year, lessons are pretty much straight from the book. Commendable plans smolder in my thoughts. Our idea books are perused often, but not by me. My son has taken to finding his own creativity. I applaud his efforts. Pilgrim’s Progress When I asked him to record the characters in Pilgrim’s Progress, he hunted for Alternatives

Landmark History Books

It isn’t a book my son picked off the shelf. The plain red cover is worn, stained, and wrapped with tape.  It looks uninspiring, but after the first chapter we are both captivated by the amazing story of two brothers. The Wright Brothers- Pioneers of American Aviation by Quentin Reynolds was originally published in 1950 by Random House for the Landmark Series. This series contains

Bruchko

Wow.  We just finished reading Bruchko, the story of missionary Bruce Olsen, and I can truly say it’s an amazing book! So many times, missionary stories can be rather dry and difficult to trudge through.  Not so with Bruchko – we were enthralled from beginning to end!  The excitement of the wonderfully woven true tale kept us on our toes.   Witnessing the perseverance of

A few non-BPA resources

I have taken to buying books–lots of books. I buy literature from a local used bookstore and lots of resource books from mega-bookstores and my local used homeschool store. I like to buy books that I can refer to over and over for ideas and inspiration. I need to jazz up my lessons but I’m not always sure how to do it. Once I have
