Learning in the Dirt

Jun 30, 2018Susan K. StewartHomeschool, Preschooldirt, family, garden, homeschool, learn, lessons

Summertime is here. Yet many of us still want our children to continue learning. What better way to learn than getting our hands dirty? Dirty in the garden. A garden is full of many lessons from how a plant grows to cooking the harvest. Like so many good things, gardening can sound like one more thing

Homeschool – Why Am I Doing This?

Apr 8, 2018Susan K. StewartHomeschoolencouragement, harried homeschool, homeschool, homeschool mom

Someone once said, “If you’re not sure where you’re going, any train will get you there.” Recently I took a train trip to New York City. I knew where I was going and what train to use to get there. I had a specific destination. I even had a specific destination, my hotel, once I

2:1 Conference Giveaways – Thank You

Sep 27, 2016Susan K. StewartUncategorized2to1conf, Blog, give away, homeschool

The 2:1 Conference is an annual event for Christian homeschool bloggers. It’s unique because it’s small enough to create a community and large enough to expand our blogs. I was thrilled to be among the sponsors, along with Melinda Martin Publishing and Design Service, of the conference. It was so much fun to talk to attendees about

Read the Classics? It doesn’t have to be dull

Aug 30, 2016Susan K. StewartBook Reviews, Homeschoolbooks, classics, homeschool, homeschooling, literature, reading

Too often “the classics” of literature are considered too old and too difficult for our children to tackle. As our kids’ teachers, we try to put on a happy face and tell them they’ll love it. If we’re honest with ourselves and our children, we have to admit we used Cliff Notes when during our

High School at Home: Help is here

Mar 30, 2016Susan K. StewartHomeschoolgive away, high school, home school, homeschool, video course

Like the socialization question, some doubts about homeschooling continue in spite of the evidence that they are false fears. One such doubt is high school at home. Four decades of homeschooled students graduating from high school and succeeding in college, business, and other areas has not changed the view. To help parents overcome doubts, 7

Homeschool Graduation and Parents

Mar 23, 2016Susan K. StewartHomeschoolgraduation, homeschool, Parents

For homeschoolers, a more exciting sign of spring than blooming flowers, warmer sunshine, and the arrival of daylight saving time is graduation planning. Our minds fill with so many thoughts from the practical logistics of the day to the whispers that you might be “less than” and have passed that failure on to your graduate.

Teaching Journalism at Home

Mar 17, 2016Susan K. StewartHomeschoolhigh school, homeschool, journalism, language arts

When you think of journalism, you probably have some set ideas of what it is and why you can’t teach it as a homeschool class. Perhaps you think journalists must write for a student newspaper in junior high or high school. You know there must be follow up through a college major in journalism or

Rocks - The child Shall Lead

Let your child lead

Mar 14, 2016Susan K. StewartHomeschool, Lifestyle Learning, Preschoolchild, children, homeschool, lead, preschool

Three-year-old Rosie brought a handful of rocks from the driveway in the house. She carefully placed these ordinary pieces of gravel on the bookshelf. This was the beginning of her rock collection. At three years old, there was little pattern or reason to her collection or how she displayed it. She just started collecting rocks.

Poetry – Have no fear

Nov 5, 2015Susan K. StewartBook Reviews, Homeschool, Reading, Study, Writinghomeschool, literature, poems, poetry, writing

This post contains affiliate links. I enjoy poetry. I wanted my children to enjoy poetry. Sadly, I never really learned to write lovely verses and, consequently, I don’t think I did an adequate job of teaching my children. When the opportunity came to take a look at Grammar of Poetry from Compass Classroom, I jumped at
