Hey Mama Monday: Mama, Your Yay to Their Nay

Hey Mama, Naysayers. You know them well. In homeschooling, we all have those friends or family members who question our education choices. They are negative and disapproving of our decision to home educate. -“Your children won’t have the diversity of electives offered in public school.” -“How will they ever learn to properly socialize with others?”

Fruits of the Spirit for the Homeschool Mom – Joy

  Joy has always been of my favorite words. It just looks cheerful. But as homeschooling moms, it can be difficult to understand joy and even harder to find it on a consistent basis. We get too stuck on works and forget to rest in grace. Then the busyness of life steals our happiness, and

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of Dual Enrollment

  Earning both college credit and high school credit by having a high school student take college courses is a win/win! Saving money on college by taking dual enrollment classes is yet another win. Many states offer dual enrollment grants, and some states offer dual enrollment classes for free! For those who do not live

Using Literature to Teach Ancient History in High School

  Many of us use a curriculum to teach history; but using literature to teach history can be a great teaching tool. I am continuing this history literature series with some of the best books to teach ancient history. Students in ancient times, sitting by candlelight, actually read history through literature. There simply was no

Home Management Advice for Homeschool Moms

  When my children were young, I struggled with managing my home. I wanted to include my children, but I didn’t know the best way to do it. As a single mom, I was accustomed to doing everything myself. However, I wanted my children to learn responsibility by contributing to the functioning of our household.

Election Day Learning Fun

  It’s never too early to learn about American freedom and Election Day! I learned to vote because my parents voted in every single election.
