This post is to offer reading suggestions on finding what works for you based on what we have loved.

After you decide to homeschool, I think a great second step is to read what is out there. What...

Abeka High School - Homeschool How To

The Abeka high school program can be approached in several different ways. If you choose Abeka (although I don't recommend it), you can join their academy or just get their books and teacher manuals on your own.There are two options for Abeka high school when it comes to accreditation.

Back-to-school day in Alberta, or, So you're thinking about home schooling...

Today is the first day of school for Alberta public and separate (Catholic) schools, so in honor of that fateful day, two years ago, when Laura came off the school bus -- a two-hour roundtrip, by the way -- in tears after her first day of first grade (or Grade One as it's known up here) because "they're doing baby work and you have to go tell the teacher I know it already," an incomplete and highly subjective list of...
