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.

Grammar of Poetry Review

Grammar of Poetry - a review of this great resource from The Compass Classroom at The Curriculum Choice invites you to dig deeper and study about poetry. The art of poetry to be exact.

Elementary Homeschool Curriculum – Oak Meadow 5

When looking for a elementary curriculum, we wanted something that would nurture this spirit of exploration with lots of hands on projects – yet would still cover all the bases. We found this and more in Oak Meadow's Fifth Grade Curriculum Package.

When my daughter was young, she was all about exploring, making things with tons of tape and cardboard, asking lots of questions, wondering “why’s” and always eager to learn new things. So when we were looking for a elementary curriculum, we wanted something that would nurture this spirit of exploration with lots of hands on projects – yet would still cover all the bases.  We

Middle School Spelling and Vocabulary – from A Beka

If you are looking for an academically challenging, quality middle school spelling and vocabulary program, my family recommends Vocabulary, Spelling, and Poetry I.

This review may include affiliate links to curriculum that we loved and used in our own homeschool.  Please see our disclosure policy. Prior to that, we had used Building Spelling Skills
