A Reason for Writing – E/5th Grade
If you want your child to practice and polish their handwriting skills than this is the book for you. There is adequate space for writing assignments in the book but an additional thin notebook is needed to copy Bible verses almost every other day. In the back there are lined pages which correspond with the [...]
Dr. Aardsma’s Spelling Drill
My son is a poor speller, so I bought this hoping to supplement our regular lessons, thinking he could work on his own to improve his spelling. He was a 6th grader at the time, I started him in the 5th grade level. The words they gave him were very challenging. There is no way [...]
Story of the World Series
The Story of the World history series is great! The storytelling format is engaging enough to interest my youngest children, while the sallient historical points are covered for my older kids. The accompanying Activity books are a valuable asset, cementing the history lesson with fun and memorable projects, map work, and lists of related books. [...]
Big Truths for Little Kids
You cannot go wrong with any book written by Susan Hunt. We have read this book over and over to our children. Not only does it present sound Biblical theology, it is truly loved by our children. I anticipate reading it many more times in the years to come. Cassie and Caleb feel like they [...]
10 Days in the USA
I debated about this for awhile and finally did purchase it. I try to make Wednesdays game day, you have to play a game together. So one Wednesday I brought it out. My kids opened it a little skeptical, I have gotten some games that are just too hard. No so here. They all liked [...]
The Reading Lesson Book
We’ve tried a couple of different phonics programs and found that The Reading Lesson Book was a good fit for our son. The lessons build on each other in a logical progression and help the child gain confidence in their reading ability. Within a few weeks using this program, our son was able to read [...]
Mathematical Reasoning Beginning Pre-K
I used this book with my oldest and bought another copy to use with my second child – both started it at age 3. Both children have really enjoyed this book – the pictures are engaging and there’s plenty of repetition with each topic before moving on. I think it’s well worth the money, as [...]
Christian Light Education Reading to Learn Series
We love using this series. We use it as our reading program. The vocabulary words are excellent, the stories are interesting, informative, and full of good biblically based lessons for our children’s spiritual growth, and the scripture verses for each stories always lead us back to rely on His word for everything. I make vocabulary [...]
Teaching Textbooks
I have used Teaching Textbooks for Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry. The material truly is “self-taught” (which is a huge time-saver for the teacher), although I needed to help my daughters for 10-30 minutes daily with the few problems they could not complete on their own or got incorrect. We did not purchase the [...]
Physics Solar Workshop
We bought this for a Christmas gift that needed to be under $100. It was worth the money. The solar panel will work with 12 projects so our son is able to use his imagination and desire for discovery to build, build and build and the solor panel can work with all projects. If your [...]
