See the Light Art DVDs

I love art, but have no real training in it.  I believe my children need to learn art techniques, but I can’t afford $60/hour lessons at the local art studio.  What’s a homeschooling mom to do?  Well…I had the blessing of reviewing lessons 1-12 of See the Light Art Class DVD’s and found them to be full of solid instruction at a reasonable price. Before I

My First Science Kit

My five-year-old son received My 1St Science Kit – The Science of Color from his grandma and grandpa for Christmas.  We were both excited but I had no idea it would be “the” source of motivation for school every single day for a week! What was so motivating?  The goodies my son found in the box.  Hands down. Giant, plastic test tubes, pipettes, little plastic

Understanding Government DVDs

As we find ourselves cooped up more often during the winter, we (unfortunately) tend to watch a bit more TV.  I’ve tried to make sure at least some of what we watch is super-productive and the Just the Facts: Understanding Government DVD set fits the bill. Each of  the three DVDs takes a detailed look at one of the three branches of the United States

Learn Our History DVD’s

My husband and I have been thrilled to introduce the Learn Our History DVD’s to our children.  We both have a passion for teaching fundamental truths about the history of the United States in our homeschool.  Believe it or not, much of what we read/hear/watch is either extremely watered-down or downright misleading.  Not so with this series of DVD’s from Learn Our History! In each

Jacob’s Ladder Reading Comprehension

Have you ever wished for a reading comprehension program that encourages higher order thinking skills?  Questions that require deep thinking, inference and opinion?  Questions based on “living” literature selections rather than dry paragraphs?  All of this in assignments that can be completed in a lesson or two?  Not to mention, reading comprehension available for children as old as 9th grade? I’ve had the pleasure of

Grocery Cart Math

Grocery Cart Math by Jaye Hansen has been a fun addition to my son’s math schedule.  Many of you know that our family typically spends only three days per week in the math textbook.  The other two days of math are spent doing “other things” like games, logic, problem solving, math projects and more.  (You can read more about how to incorporate the “other things”

Foxmind Games

Remember my love for logic? Well, here I am again talking about incorporating more logic into your homeschool – this time through games! I’m teaching a logic and critical thinking class at co-op this year and needed some activities that were both fun and challenging.  I hit the jackpot with Foxmind Games! Each of the games below can be played by one person or a
