Thursday, 09 July 2020 by luke

  The day that my second son was born, homeschooling was an option that was on my radar as I had many friends and family members who had homeschooled their children.  When my newborn baby began having a seizure in my arms, it set us on a course that would eventually cement this decision. When

make your own quill pen
  We’ve been studying the early modern period this year in our homeschool, so we decided to do a project that would help us to experience what life was like during this time in history. We wondered how much more work it may have been not to have a modern pen to write with but

Culturing for Science Class: Kombucha & the Fungi Kingdom

Thursday, 19 March 2020 by luke
Kombucha
  In science, my children have been studying taxonomy recently. We read about the Animal, Plant, and Protista Kingdoms.  As we reached the Fungi Kingdom, we learned that fungi do not ingest their food like animals do or make their own food, like plants, but absorb nutrients from their environment through their bodies.  They do

Don’t Fall Into the Comparison Trap

Wednesday, 19 February 2020 by luke
comparison trap
I belong to an online support group for mothers of pediatric stroke survivors. Periodically, a post will appear from a mom who took her child to a playground and was upset because children of a similar age or younger could do things her child can’t do yet. When these posts appear, I respond by warning

How to Make Pumpkin Pie Play Dough

Thursday, 24 October 2019 by luke
  This summer, while I was filing away schoolwork that we completed last year, I came across a cherished recipe that I’d been searching for. I discovered this recipe for pumpkin pie play dough several years ago when my son was in kindergarten. It was the first time that I tried making homemade play dough,

Nature Study: Sprouting an Avocado Pit in a Pot

Wednesday, 18 September 2019 by luke
avocado pit
  About two years ago, my children and I started an avocado tree by putting a pit in a jar with water, suspended with toothpicks. You can read about that here. We had tried sprouting avocado pits this way before, once with success (until my cat ate the plant). Most of the time, though, they

benefits of summer school
  I have fond memories of the lazy days of summer from my childhood. So, when I began homeschooling, I intended to have our homeschool year follow our local school district’s calendar, with an accompanying summer vacation. I began school the last week of August, and promptly received several invitations for day trips to the

Culturing for Science Class: Apple Cider Vinegar

Wednesday, 26 June 2019 by luke
apple cider vinegar
  One day, I pulled a bottle of apple cider vinegar out of my kitchen cabinet (the kind that says “with the mother” on the label) and noticed that the small pieces of mother had formed into a solid that resembled a SCOBY. A SCOBY is a symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast that is
