Homeschool Library Builder

Homeschool Library Builder - TOS Review

A homeschooler? You must love books! . . . You must need books! ... At our house we do. We live in an apartment and the space is lacking to put up all the books we have between myself, the boys and Dad, as a pastor. I know books can be costly though, and that's why I actually do not buy many books for our homeshool, we just can't afford it. I am blessed to be able to borrow books from 2 public libraries, and that helps a lot.

That says, I recently was asked to review an other kind of library. If you have never heard about it, it deserves for you to go and check it out. It is called The Homeschool Library Builder, and this is exactly what it is: a homeschool library, except it is online. It was created to help homeschoolers build their libraries at a low cost.

Put together by homeschool moms who have a love for good literature, the site is packed-full with good books, going from classic fictions to well-loved and recommended non fictions.

You can search the site by fiction or non-fiction, age, activity books, science, seasonal, storybooks and more.

An added bonus to this library is that it tries to provide books you may encounter in curricula such as Tapestry of Grace, Sonlight, Beautiful Feet, Ambleside, Heart of Dakota, and Sonlight.

Every month the Homeschool Library Builder offers a very special deal. For the month of May everything is 15% off.

On top of their monthly deals, if you are a member (totally free membership), every purchase gets you book points that can count towards free books. Who does not like free books? You also get book points for promoting the library on your blog, or for referrals.

So go on over and check this Homeschool Library out!

Writing & Rhetoric - A Writing Curriculum Review and a Giveaway

Curriculum choosing and buying can be a very daunting task. So many subjects to cover, so many curriculum to browse though, and so many companies to consider. Today I would like to share with you a product and a company that I have come to hold in high regards. When it comes to teaching writing to the boys I was not sure which way to go, as I would not exactly consider myself a great writer. Then came along Writing and Rhetoric from Classical Academic Press. I heard about it when the second book in a series of twelve just released, and I was immediately intrigued. You see I homeschool classically, and writing is an integral part of it. Classical Academic Press puts out products geared towards classical homeschooling, so there you had the first common ground. I was searching for something that would teach them what writing was, and guide them through the process incrementally, without bombarding them with pages and pages of writing right from the start. I found what...
