Meet the Homeschoolers - Honolulu Magazine - December 2009 ...

An increasing number of Hawaii families are choosing to educate their children at home. We spoke with three of them to learn more about the realities of homeschooling.

For most parents with school-age children, the usual thing is to drop off the kids at a school. Schools have teachers, classrooms, textbooks—all the educational essentials. But what if you were the teacher? What if, instead of hopping on a bus every weekday, your child simply walked into the living room to start her school...

Christopherus Homeschool Curriculum Review

Structured guidance. Academics with practical skills. Christopherus homeschool curriculum offers a complete and customizable Waldorf-type education. My family has been very pleased with the Christopherus homeschool curriculum. We've used the preschool/kindergarten guides for three years and are now halfway through the first grade curriculum with my eldest child.

Paying teachers in a homeschool co-op is a sticky situation ...

Amy asks a common question: paying teachers at a homeschool co-op

For the past several years, our group has spent more (thousands more) than we have charged our members. We’re not technically “in the red” because of more prosperous years in the past. The reason   we are spending so much money is that over 90% of our income goes to paying our parent-teachers ($15-$20/hour)! The rest of the money goes toward classroom supplies. I am sure that most parents are unaware of how the finances...

Jazzy Mama: Yes, Homeschool in Ontario is Legal

I am posting this information for a friend who is considering taking her child out for school for half of the instructional day. I'm incredibly excited that someone I know is attempting something outside the 'normal' way of sending a child to school. 

But as an aside, I must mention that many people who have learned that we are homeschooling have asked "Is that legal?" or "Is that allowed?". I always respond with, "Yes, Canada really is a wonderful country of great freedoms, isn't it? Free...

The Common Room: Four Moms Discuss Homeschooling a Child ...

The Moore Academy says they offer Special Needs counseling for homeschoolers. Back when The Cherub joined the family the Moores were partnered with the Hewitt Research group, so maybe they carry some of the useful materials Hewitt used to.

Pre-Sign Language Motor Skills This book is wonderful, and I am not getting rid of it. If you have a child who needs sign to communicate and who combines that difficulty with any physical difficulty (C.P.; M.S.; M.D.; the low muscle tone associated with...

ABeka Homeschool Curriculum: First Grade Review

Homeschooling mom shares why she uses ABeka homeschool curriculum and what she likes and doesn't like about it. Read her review... I have loved my A Beka homeschool curriculum. I ordered the Grade child kit with some extras for a total of $388.76, but it included every subject, all the books, worksheets, teacher manuals etc. It did keep my six year pretty busy; also my 4 year old was able to learn so much from it. I have used it for a whole year! I really liked how the curriculum is more...

The Homeschool Mother's Journal | The Traveling Praters

In my life this week… I feel like I’m finally getting back on track after our surprise move. It has been one crazy month!  It has been really wonderful to catch up with family and friends here in Ohio but I have to admit that I really miss my Alabama friends. I also miss some of the “luxuries” that I’d become accustomed to in a larger city- like grocery stores that don’t close at 10:00pm or the amazing thrift stores that were minutes away. Getting used to small town living once...

Secular Thursday: Homeschooling in Louisiana @ Peanuts are EVIL

They are upgrading the website and homeschoolers got caught in the cross fire.

You see we have two options for homeschooling in Louisiana. We can either do what is called a State Approved Home Study or we can register as a private school. As you can guess most homeschoolers choose to register as private schools. The reason is that most of us like being able to do our own thing and we don’t want to follow what the state says we should as far as education goes. Hence why most of us...
