Thank you for joining me for Day 3 of the 365 Days of Children’s Books series! I hope you are able to add a few new requests to your library account this week. Lazy summer days bring lots of time to read fresh books! Today’s book, Michelangelo, is by Diane Stanley, one of my favorite …
While evaluating our homeschool at the end of last year, I realized that I had not emphasized writing enough on a daily basis. It was the one thing that fell between the cracks. Actually, writing AND science tend to be the things that are not completed by the end of the day. Sigh. In an effort …
During the week of Thanksgiving, my children and I usually take a break from our regular school subjects and study about the history of Thanksgiving. I call it ‘Thanksgiving School.’ That’s a very creative name, isn’t it?! 🙂 I try to make it fun and have everything we do revolve around Thanksgiving history – worksheets, …
Before our school year started, I knew it was going to be a bit of a trying year for me. We started school in July as we usually do, and I had just found out I was pregnant with our #5. Morning (all day) sickness and I were not friends at this point. While we …

Like most Americans, “The Star-Spangled Banner” holds a very special place in the hearts of my family. Sure, I associate it with baseball games and summertime, but I strive to teach my children that our national anthem is more than just a song. It’s a symbol of our freedom! And even though we won’t cycle …
This week, my children and I started studying about Ancient Rome. We are in Year 1, Week 28 of our Tapestry of Grace curriculum, and this is our second time through the Year 1 cycle. Side Note: Sadly, we are not going to finish Ancient Rome before our school year is over, so we will …
Benjamin Franklin is such a fascinating person to study! While we only scratched the surface of his life in our last unit study, we’re going to dig a bit deeper in our learning in the coming year. There are only a million different aspects of Franklin’s life to consider for a unit study: his service …
