Educating Myself as a Classical Homeschooling Mom

Educating Myself as a Classical Homeschool Mom

June 2, 2020 //  by Lauren Hill//  4 Comments

Through the years, I have homeschooled my children in several ways – unit studies, literature-rich studies, and the 4-year history rotation.  At the root of all of it was a classical education, even though I veered from that a bit in the earlier years due to the New-and-Shiny Syndrome. As my oldest child aged and …

Homeschool Attendance Record 2020-2021

Homeschool Attendance Record 2020-2021

Yahoo! The Homeschool Attendance Record for 2020-2021 is here! And as I look back through previous years’ records, I see that I am surprisingly early in posting it this year.  I’m giving myself a pat on the back for that, haha. I’m grateful for this momentary quieter season of life. It thrills me that so …

Homeschool Moms Share Scheduling Advice

April 8, 2020 //  by Lauren Hill//  Leave a Comment

I love blogs.  I discovered blogs when I was pregnant with my oldest boy back in 2004, and I’ve been such a fan ever since. More specifically, I love pre-Facebook blogs.  Are you familiar with those?  They’re pretty old-school. For those of you not old enough to remember, blogs used to be very conversational.  The …

Sample Schedule for Homeschool During Difficult Times

April 7, 2020 //  by Lauren Hill//  4 Comments

If you have homeschooled for any length of time, you know that some years are simply magnificent.  Life circumstances and educational goals fall into line beautifully. Other years, life events happen that cause academics to occasionally take a back seat to more pressing issues at hand. Over the past 3 years, our family has faced …

Why I Teach Latin in Our Homeschool

Why I Teach Latin in Our Homeschool

December 16, 2019 //  by Lauren Hill//  3 Comments

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 …

How We Use Rod and Staff English Grammar in Our Homeschool

November 2, 2019 //  by Lauren Hill//  28 Comments

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 …

How I Teach Spelling in Our Homeschool

How I Teach Spelling in Our Homeschool

May 7, 2019 //  by Lauren Hill//  6 Comments

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 …

Let’s Talk About Grades in Homeschool

March 14, 2019 //  by Lauren Hill//  4 Comments

For the first time in my homeschooling life, grades have become a big deal here in the Hill House.  I will be very honest and say that as a young, inexperienced homeschool mama, I thought it ridiculous and completely unnecessary to have grades in homeschool. I’m with my children all day long and I see …

5 Sentences I Say to My Children Part II

5 Sentences I Say to My Children Part II

March 4, 2019 //  by Lauren Hill//  5 Comments

I’ve been a mother now for almost 14 years, and a homeschooling mama for at least 8 of those.  When my oldest was just a toddler, I decided to be very intentional about the way I talk to my children. My own parents always spoke to me in a respectful, kind way.  Sure, they got …

5 Sentences I Say to My Children Part I

March 2, 2019 //  by Lauren Hill//  6 Comments

This past school year, I’ve spent more time than ever reflecting on those early years of being a homeschooling mom.  I loved those years, and think about them with such warm memories. Read-alouds snuggled on the couch, nap time every afternoon, take the day off for the park…bliss! As we move into these harder (to …
