• Rabbits, Rabbits Everywhere: A Fibonacci Tale (Review Crew)
  on Nov 10, 2015 in Bookshelf Education at Home Elementary Review Crew
  I’m a huge proponent of literature based learning – in EVERY subject. Yes, even math and science! What better way to learn skills and facts than in the context in which they were developed or discovered, or in a story where they’re...
• Standard Deviants Accelerate Homeschool Courses (Review Crew)
  on Oct 30, 2015 in Education at Home High School Review Crew
  Online and multimedia learning are essential parts of our school day. They’re a great way for both my older and younger students to work independently, and they free me up to work one on one with another child. They also provide instruction t...
• The Ultimate Homeschool Planner: A Beautiful, Functional Planning System
  on Oct 28, 2015 in Education at Home Review Crew
  Staying organized is always a struggle for me. I’m not one of those naturally organized people, and with four kids at four different grade levels, plus all their extracurricular activities, there’s a lot to keep up with! I love the idea...
• Phonetic Zoo: A Self-Teaching Spelling Program (Review Crew)
  on Oct 27, 2015 in Education at Home Review Crew
    Some kids are natural spellers and some are not. If you’ve followed me for long, you probably know that Kyle (14) falls into that latter category. I’ve tried several different programs to help him brush up, but it’s been hard...
• Koru Naturals: A Review
  on Oct 20, 2015 in Healthy Lifestyle Natural Beauty Review Crew
  Many, if not most, of the personal care products found on grocery and drugstore shelves are full of questionable, unpronounceable ingredients. We use more natural options like essential oils and coconut oil as much as we can, and I’m always int...
• Do You Believe? Experience the Power of the Cross DVD Review
  on Oct 13, 2015 in Faith Family Discipleship Review Crew
    There have been several well made faith based films in recent years that I’ve enjoyed watching. It seems to me that they mostly “preach to the choir”, but that’s not necessarily always a bad thing. I don’t think...

• Purposeful Links #77
  on Oct 18, 2014 in Purposeful Links
  I didn’t get a Purposeful Links up last weekend! I apologize. We were busy with homecoming, visiting family, and preparing for an upcoming trip, and it was neglected in the busyness. Now, I have so many links saved, I had trouble narrowing it d...
• In Our Classroom: Junior High Edition (October 2014)
  on Oct 17, 2014 in Education at Home In Our Classroom Junior High
  I’m afraid this is going to be an unexciting update. Schoolwork and all Kyle’s extracurriculars are going as planned. I do have one exciting development to tell you about later in the post, but for the most part, things have been business...
