Our Eclectic Homeschool Curriculum Choices 2018-2019

August 25, 2018 by Erin Vincent 11 Comments

Summer is drawing to a close, which means that school is on everyone's mind. I admit I'm not ready for the warmth of summer to end. We've already had our first 4H Horse Club meeting as well as a couple of Homeschool Group meetups. Since I can't stop summer from ending, I have resigned to making this school year the best one yet! So, here is my annual homeschool curriculum post. We will use many … [Read more...] about Our Eclectic Homeschool Curriculum Choices 2018-2019

5 Reasons We Use All About Reading

April 22, 2018 by Erin Vincent 8 Comments

I am often asked about the literacy of my children. Many of you may notice that we've always got a book or fifty piled high from the library. My kiddos LOVE books, and I love nothing more than snuggling up with them and reading aloud.  There are many things I do to promote reading literacy at home but for my daughter, we are also using All About Reading. *Disclosure:  This post may contain … [Read more...] about 5 Reasons We Use All About Reading

Exploring Nature with Illustrated Children’s Books

April 8, 2018 by Erin Vincent 7 Comments

Illustrated children's books are a perfect way for kids to explore nature! Let's face it... we can't always get outside for nature study. The weather may not cooperate, or someone may be feeling poorly. Life happens. Maybe you have had a full day of hiking and exploring, and now your children want to extend their exploration of nature with books? Or you may want to simply strew these fantastic … [Read more...] about Exploring Nature with Illustrated Children’s Books

Geography Through Literature: Around the World with Picture Books

December 31, 2017 by Erin Vincent 22 Comments

I am so flip'in excited to share with you how we are exploring geography through literature! As many of you know, our homeschool thrives on read alouds, games, art, and nature exploration. This combination works beautifully for my children and for my family. But, sometimes it can be challenging to know which great books pair well with our current study. It takes loads of effort to search … [Read more...] about Geography Through Literature: Around the World with Picture Books

All About Reading: A Multi-Sensory Approach to Reading

October 15, 2017 by Erin Vincent 5 Comments

Learning to read isn't one size fits all...reading is a unique adventure for each child! It's a special journey. One in which you choose what sort of voyages you become a part of. But, before you are ready to sail the Pequod in search of the elusive white whale you must first learn the alphabet. The sounds of each letter must be mastered before you can go traipsing across the Misty Mountains, … [Read more...] about All About Reading: A Multi-Sensory Approach to Reading

Preparing for Fall: Homeschool Curriculum Choices

August 13, 2017 by Erin Vincent 10 Comments

Preparing for fall in the homeschool world means you are probably looking at all of the curriculum choices available to you. We are not a box curriculum type of family. Don't get me wrong, we use curriculums...just not in the traditional sense of starting at chapter one and continuing until the end. We love to tumble down rabbit holes of learning, get lost in forests of knowledge, and … [Read more...] about Preparing for Fall: Homeschool Curriculum Choices

  August is upon us and for many of us, it brings with it the planning of another homeschool year. Curriculum's and school supplies bombard our senses as we walk through stores and browse online.
