Back to Homeschool…Already?!, Mama?

I really need a fresh start, which is why planning for the new school year brings great refreshment, and it comes right when I feel like I need to just scrap everything and start over! Anyone else feel that way?  Some of you plan years in advance what you will be studying and the curriculum you will

The Benefits of Unit Studies, Mama

I never considered myself the “fun” unit study mom. I am still more of a textbook/workbook person. Unit studies don’t always fit with the way our family operates—and that is one of the great things about homeschooling! No matter the method, homeschooled kids excel (www.nheri.org). However, I know the kids need breaks from the books,

Are You Qualified to Teach High School, Mama?

Hey Mama, Have you ever asked yourself, “Am I qualified to teach high school?” If so, then consider these questions: – Did God lead you to homeschool your children in the first place? – Has homeschooling been good for your family and your children (most of the time—grin)? – Are the reasons you began homeschooling

Planning for the New School Year: Where to Start, Mama

This time of year is when I feel like I need to just scrap everything and start over so planning for the new school year gives me the fresh start I need.  Maybe you are feeling down, like you don’t want to even think about the new school year or don’t know how to start.

Hey Mama Monday: Creative Ways to Teach Math and Science, Mama

Creative science and math? I am not that creative. But I have found that science and math often go hand in hand. Kids love science experiments, and they often have elements of math included, such as amounts and percentages and time. And, math will often include scientific data such as graphs and estimates. Teaching these

Hey Mama Monday: Mercy Every Minute, Mama

Does teaching spelling make you smile, sing, and celebrate? Or does it wear you out as you shed a few tears? And just why are wear and tear spelled the same but sound so different? Seems like a lot of “wear and tear” on this old homeschool mom! Sometimes spelling success comes through hard work over many years, and sometimes it comes

Geography & Geology – Where to Go and What to Find, Mama

Hey Mama, What do you think of when you hear the words “geography” or “geology”? Maps. Rocks. Or maybe TERROR at the idea that you’ll have to teach these subjects someday? (grin) Be at peace, Mama. There is a greater purpose behind these ominous subjects. They remind us that we serve a God of order

Getting Down…on the Farm, Mama

Hey Mama, Farm life. Who has not, at least at some point, had grandiose dreams of starting a farm—large or small—that they could call their own? When I was a kid, every girl I knew wanted a horse, including me. I never got one . . . but I was given a goose (more about
