Homeschooling doesn't guarantee your kids won't turn out perfect. Mine have had their fair share of issues. However, it will give your kids the best opportunity to become who God has made them to be because they don't have to be tied to a standardized curriculum and pushed to do all the things according to a predetermined time frame. It's not easy, but homeschooling is well worth it!

MLK Day

Joke of the Day Love the apple demonstration in this free unit study! https://firstgradewow.blogspot.com/2012/12/not-by-color-of-our-skin.html Here's a free printable emergent reader for Martin Luther King Day. http://teachinlittletexans.blogspot.com/2015/01/mlk-emergent-reader-printable-free.html Read the full text of Dr. King's famous I Have A Dream speech here: https://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkihaveadream.htm Don't be a victim.

Be proud of who God made you to be and succeed anyway.

While I am all for Christians celebrating Jewish holidays, I still have no qualms about celebrating Christmas in spite of its pagan roots. Here’s why: Many years ago, I read the book  “Peace Child “. It’s about a missionary couple who felt a call to reach the cannibalistic tribes of New Guinea with the gospel. The culture of these people was the polar opposite of Christianity. Lying was held up as a virtue and violence was revered. In the book, Don Richardson explains that all religions and value systems have their roots in the true religion practiced by Noah. Satan has never created anything. He only perverts the truth. Therefore, the strategy of these ...

21 Ways to Mix Language Arts and History

Image
Do you homeschool? If so you have the perfect opportunity to mix up those boring categories that traditional schools use to compartmentalize learning. Here are just a few ways to get some hands-on learning that mixes up the subjects. Feel free to count the time spent doing these activities as History, Language Arts or both! Stage a debate between George Washington and King George! (Or any two opposing historical figures.) Choose a historical event. Pretend you are a director who is casting the actors for a movie about it. Then choose people to play the characters. These can be anyone! – Friends, historical figures, actual actors, even fictional! Explain who you would choose and why. Make a comic book depicting an event you are studying. When studying historical conflicts such as the Civil War or the Civil Rights Movement, have your kids write letters to the editor written from the perspective of someone on each side. Create a classified ad to promote a historical event....
