This was a fun curriculum for me to review. At first, I wasn’t sure that James would enjoy it–the graphics and some of the ideas appear to be a bit young. However, I like their point that school doesn’t have to be “tear inducing” in order to be effective. We reviewed Write Shop Junior book [...]
Today, I just really was not sure what to post. I shared links to information and other single homeschooling blogs. I shared what I did. I let you know that it is a hard thing to do and it’s a hard choice to make. What to share today? I don’t know! There’s no one size [...]

It works with both PC and Mac and the license is $29.95 per year. It was developed by “Cap.” Jack Fretwell–a man smart enough to qualify [...]
Homeschooling James was always our plan. Lee and I talked about homeschooling our children before we ever had children. He left the actual planning up to me, but he was always supportive and helpful. Then he went to prison. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do and seriously wondered if I was crazy to even [...]
I will be participating in this blog hop next week–along with my other posts. I’ll be sharing my thoughts and tips for single parent homeschooling. If you know of a single mom who homeschools or is condisering it, please send her my way. If you want to see the topics included in this blog hop [...]
As a TOS Crew member, I was privileged to review God’s Great Covenant NT 1 by Classical Academic Press. I’ve studied covenant before and found it to be an enriching study for myself so I was excited to have a study about God and covenant to share with my son! From their website: Teaching the [...]
