Hi Ladies, I am looking into what to do for my teen girls this next school year. I have ideas of what I think that they should learn but am at a loss of what...
Hi Heather L, First I would have to ask for your ideas of what they should or need to still learn. Reguardless of whether or not they intend to be college...
Hi Heather, We put together our own, but in the past have used Far Above Rubies by Lynda Coats. It is a unit study for high school girls based on Proverbs 31....
Hi Kimberly, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and experience. You raise some good points, which I have already been pondering. I don't...
Thank you for the link. Even though it doesn't seem to be on the "approved" list here in Oregon, I'll definitely tuck the information away in the event of any...

I used to "google" free lesson plans off the internet. I don't do that so much now that I am registered with the state. But you could always put in what...
I have been using the Charlotte Mason style and trying to use notebooks; however, I just got my child's IOWA test scores back and they were very low. I'm...
Hi Lisa, I believe that you are on some other Yahoo groups that I am a part of as well. I have looked into this before but the price was too high for our...
Thank you Kimberly, These were exactly what I wanted my daughters to study this coming year, especially my oldest. I really appreciate you taking the time to...
I want my oldest to study government, finish with American History, the modern era, practical math skills (like budgeting, balancing a checkbook, etc.),...
because public school curriculum is geared toward standardized testing, you may see some areas that you have not covered in their specific time period. Over...
I have always purchased the prep books from Barnes and Noble for the test and prepared my children for it. I know a lot of people choose not to. This will be...
... so I pretty much look for free curriculum on the internet or use things that others have generously given me. Like this year, with the younger kids, we are...
I think it is good to diversify a little. We did Charlotte mason for awhile, and enjoyed it. When my two oldest went on to HS, I decided they needed to know...
I know we have kind of been covering this topic already but I recently wrote this and sent it through my homeschool group email loop. I would love to hear any...
Sometimes homeschool curriculum doesn't go with test answers but by the end of elementary your children are far beyond school test scores. I knew this, but...
I am accepting of the fact that this may be God's direction in his life and that the traditional method may be what the Lord has for Joshua. I think this is a...

Hello, Are your children avid readers? I could be wrong, but I think that makes all the difference in the world. How old are they? Blessings, Mary ... Got a...
Hi Jennifer~ My experience with 3 of my boys has been that they ALL learn to read when they're ready. Some later than others. No amount of teaching,...
