By Dr. Ruth Beechick
Newly Formatted into one book! Good advice on what and how you should teach in K-3
from a Christian perspective. If you have small children and you want to
homeschool, The Three R's is a great book for starting. "Three
resources in one – Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic! Learn how to take the
mystery out of teaching the early grades with this practical, down-to-earth
guidebook from Ruth Beechick. The Three R's is divided into three sections that
are tabbed for easy reference. The Reading section tells how and when to begin
phonics, and how to develop comprehension skills. The Language section shows how
to develop written language skills naturally, in the same way children learn
oral language. The Arithmetic section explains how to teach understanding of
math concepts, and not just memorization of facts." There is a bonus: A removable 2-sided wall chart for phonics and arithmetic.
If your children are older in grades 4 to 8, we recommend

E. Ray Moore, Jr., Th.M.
"Why parents must remove their children from public schools NOW." With
school shootings, drugs, promiscuity, secular-humanism, and socialist
indoctrination, among other things, this author believes it is time to
remove our children from public schools and presents the reasons. Dr. James Dobson spoke out for homeschooling in his radio broadcast on
March 28, 2002 (may still be available online--I heard this!) If you
are considering homeschooling, but aren't sure, please read this book. |

I found this book to be an inspiration when I started
teaching our children at home. While the Three R's is about teaching children
from pre-kindergarten to about third grade, You Can Teach Your Child
Successfully covers from grade 4 to grade 8. |
