Last year, I made the big decision to homeschool my children using the Core Curriculum from Memoria Press. It was an enormous leap of faith for me to do something so incredibly different than our previous 8 years of homeschool, but it has been one of my most successful homeschool decisions to date. One season …
When I think about my current life, it is just bizarre to me that I homeschool. And what’s even more bizarre? I teach my children Latin. I was the pre-children person that looked upon homeschooling with disdain because, well, why would you do that? Homeschoolers are weird people, as I once believed. Side story: I used to …
Through the years, there have been many – and I mean many – changes in curriculum in our homeschool. In fact, I’d be pretty embarrassed to tell you the times we’ve changed curriculum. The reasons for our many curriculum switches is a post for another day that I hope to write soon. As much as I …
I’m back with my last homeschool curriculum post for the 2019-2020 school year – my 3rd grader! My sweet 3rd grader is such a delight to teach. Despite a tremendous amount of hard work, my 3rd grader was later to read. You will find that my curriculum choices reflect that. My goal with all of …

Even though I’m late in doing so, I wanted to share our homeschool curriculum choices for the 2019-2020 school year. My oldest boy is in 9th grade at a University-model school, which means he is home with us on 2 satellite days each week. This is considered a private school, so I have no choice …
I’m in my 9th year of homeschooling, and it is shocking to me how much homeschool curriculum has changed throughout the years. The variety and types of curriculum offered have exploded. In my earlier homeschool days, I used and loved All About Spelling. It was a perfect fit for my oldest child. In recent years, …
When we first started homeschooling, there were a few subjects that I knew I would have to read and research to successfully teach my children. Math and writing come immediately to mind. But spelling? Surely not. How hard could it be to teach spelling? I mean, really. I am a natural speller, and I could tell …
Hello, My Friends! Have you started your new homeschool year for 2018-2019 yet? We just finished our 6th week of school and are in a (glorious) one week break. Our homeschool looks a little different this year with my curriculum choices, and the schedule of our school days. It’s been a long 6 weeks of …
After homeschooling for over fifteen years and connecting with thousands of homeschool moms through Mama’s Learning Corner, one question keeps coming up:What’s the best homeschool curriculum for my child? In this post, I’ve curated real recommendations from homeschool moms in our community. This is honest feedback from those deep in the homeschool trenches just like …
Hi Friends! I’m back today (…finally) with our third grade homeschool curriculum choices for 2017-2018! I spent many hours during our 6 week summer break evaluating every single aspect of our homeschool – the way our day runs, my goals for each of my children, and especially our curriculum choices for each child. It can …
