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 am so excited to finish up this year’s simple homeschool attendance record! I appreciate all of you who email to see when it will be ready. I know y’all love its simplicity as much as I do! Even if you’re not in a state that requires a homeschool to keep attendance, it’s advantageous to …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
Finally Friends! The Homeschool Attendance Record 2018-2019 is here! For the past several years, I’ve used this simple attendance record to keep track of our homeschool days. Because I need lots and lots of simple in my life, it conveniently prints on one piece of paper. Yes, only one piece of paper to keep up …
Each week, I receive many emails asking about particular parts of our homeschool: how our day runs, when I find time to cook, how to keep the littles busy during school time, and many more. I thought it would be fun to occasionally write a post answering those questions. If you missed the first Q&A …
I’m so excited to share with you the second video of my current You Tube season! I actually posted it to You Tube earlier this week, but I’m just now finding time to write a post about it here at Mama’s Learning Corner. How do I know what to teach my child in our homeschool? …
Friends, I am SO excited to post a new You Tube video! I completely missed my You Tube season last year due to all-day morning sickness, and I’m beyond thrilled to have this new video to share with you. This week, I’m giving you an update on the goings on with Mama’s Learning Corner and …
