Two Free Books on Homeschooling and Parenting Encouragement

for the teacher· good deals

13 Jan

Simply Charlotte Mason has two free ebooks to download from their site (no catches, no registration needed)

One free ebook is called Getting Started in Homeschooling.

Gsh

Learn how to

  • Tell the difference between the five main homeschool approaches.
  • Find the approach that will help your children flourish.
  • Create a rich, comprehensive, and engaging education for your children.
  • Save time by teaching all your children together.
  • Begin homeschooling with confidence.

The other free ebook is called Smooth and Easy Days.  Even though we have been homeschooling for 9 years, I got a lot of encouragement and great tips out of this book.  It's well worth the download!

Sed

The Smooth and Easy Days' description from the publisher: 

We all want smooth and easy days in our homes. But how do we get them?

Charlotte Mason believed that the answer lay in developing good habits:
“The mother who takes pains to endow her children with good habits secures for herself smooth and easy days.”

Join us as we take a look at the common-sense ideas and practical tips Charlotte gave
to help us moms secure those smooth and easy days.

These articles will help you

  • Cultivate good habits in your child (and yourself).
  • Discover why nagging doesn’t work.
  • Be encouraged about your own habits.
  • Learn how to motivate your child.
  • Think of good habits as a delight.
