The Ordinary Parent’s Guide to Teaching Reading

The Ordinary Parent’s Guide to Teaching Reading   As homeschool moms we will have to consider how we will teach our children to read. Teaching our little ones to read may seem intimidating to many of us. Many of us will read all kinds of theories on how to teach phonics. I also made this journey as a homeschool mom and yes, it is intimidating! You don’t want to mess your kids

Beautiful Feet History of the Horse

The History of the Horse is a Christian, living books based unit study published by Beautiful Feet (BF) Books.  I bought History of the Horse for my fourth grade daughter, and I am so pleased with my choice! It was a huge hit with her! She mostly loved the great stories and the drawing assignments integrated into the lessons. I felt it was a great
