Teaching on Historical Figures Like Scripture Does – Part Three

  The Life of Moses: Race and Pace in Storytelling Not only does scriptural history teach us about the hearts of the men and women God used to make history, it also employs a mechanism known to storytellers as race and pace. Race and pace is the rhythm of a story. For example, in the

Counting the Days

  At the beginning of the summer, I installed a countdown application on my cell phone. I set the app to count down the number of days until we begin school again in September. I thought that, by regularly seeing the number of days remaining in our vacation, each time that I looked at my

Growing Your Child’s Vocabulary Organically

  Recently, as we were en route to a camping trip, my six-year-old wondered how much longer the ride would take. Instead of asking, “Are we there yet?” she said, “How much more time until we reach our destination?” My husband and I chuckled at her choice of words, but we weren’t surprised. In addition,

What We Don’t Need for School

  I’m loving those back-to-school sales, aren’t you? Now is the time to stock up! Just because we homeschool doesn’t mean we don’t use school supplies, right? I’ve flipped through the pages of catalogs and scrolled through the websites, ordering the books and materials we will use for the next several months, if not the

Don’t Be Lemons

  This year will be our 11th year of homeschooling. One would think I’d have all my ducks in a row by now, but my ducks tend to be freethinking, hyperactive ducks. Every year has been a new adventure and I’m thinking that my 11th year won’t be an exception. Ironically, as the mother of

Teaching on Historical Figures Like Scripture Does – Part Two

  After acquainting us with Moses’ world, he makes his debut on the scriptural pages. As our man takes the stage, the Bible utilizes several storytelling mechanisms that set it apart from traditional methods of teaching history.

Reading Should Count as Schoolwork

  “Reading through the Lord of the Rings should count as schoolwork,” or so said my 13-year-old son just now. Although I don’t plan on letting him follow Frodo and Pippin’s adventures to the exclusion of all else, he does have a point. Long ago, about the time I first devoured the Lord of the

How to Teach Accountability

  How do you teach a child to be accountable for their own actions and embrace personal responsibility? Starting young is ideal, but even teens who have been coddled for far too long can learn to be held accountable. 1. Lead by example. It has been said that, when it comes to children, “Much more
