How homeschooling should be~ not textbook bound. I think Diana Waring is "normal" and real about her approach to homeschooling. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Beyond Survival! |

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.

"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. |

Homeschool Supermom...Not!
By Susan Kemmerer, Publisher: Schoolhouse Publishing
Homeschool Supermom...Not! is appropriately subtitled: When Grace Meets Homeschooling. It is the honest, touching story of a fellow homeschool
mother. As the cliché goes, I laughed and cried as I read her inspiring story of how God led her on her homeschool journey. I loved reading about homeschooling her boys. We are homeschooling only boys in this phase of our journey. Our daughters have graduated. Homeschooling
boys is very different;, and I need Susan's version. God's grace and mercy are evident throughout the book. I particularly appreciated the note to single
moms who homeschool. It is well-written by a single mom, whom I have met, and a wonderful addition to a great book.
If you need inspiration and help to keep on homeschooling, this book will help, |

Dating is new to America in the twentieth century. There is a movement to return to the Biblical pattern of finding a mate through courtship.
Start introducing this concept to your children when they are toddlers – when you tell them about the ill effects of drinking and smoking.
