Going from Public School to Home School? Here’s My Advice

by grade· by interest· general· thoughts from my homeschool

3 Aug

We did what you’re doing, or thinking about doing. Our eldest two went to public school in our little town, and it was just fine, we didn’t have any problems, but I missed them. Also, it was a hassle packing up the baby and toddler to commute the school kids from two different school locations, and…there was homework. Homework was…

Exploring Art History: Unveiling the World of Creativity and Culture for Homeschoolers I’ve always enjoyed fine art, but my interest really peaked when one of our children became fully immersed in learning about art, artists, and galleries. Art history is – who knew – a fascinating subject that opens up a world of knowledge and inspiration for homeschoolers. Through the…

Classic Books in the Public Domain that We Can Read for Free

by grade· Charlotte Mason· elementary· general· high school· literature· middle school· preschool-kindergarten· subjects

27 Jun

In our homeschool, we use classic books for literature, history, and even for science.  We love to keep hardback copies on our bookshelves, but sometimes it’s hard to find a printed copy.  We find many of our favorite classic books here… A homeschooling family began formatting old classic books years ago. I met them at a homeschooling convention a very…

Balancing Homeschooling while Working From Home

At times, well-intentioned advice suggests that dedicating an entire day to homeschooling leaves no room for a job during regular hours. This is not necessarily so. My husband and I owned a garden center for a few years while also homeschooling. After that, I had an online business while homeschooling. We did not “only work in the evenings or on…

tips for homeschooling a struggling reader

how to homeschool a struggling reader I’ve covered this topic before, but it’s one I’m passionate about, so here I am again.
