Back to School Blog Hop - Helpful Resources Part 1

Back to Homeschool Blog Hop
On day two and three of the Back To School Blog Hop I would like to share with you some of my top educational sources and resources.

This is our 7th year of homeschooling and I can tell you that I have come across a lot of resources. I also gone back and forth from one resource to another as my kids grew. That said, there are some resources that remain places that I consistently use in my homeschool, and I would like to share them with you.

1. Currclick. Make sure to look for their free stuff and watch out for the sales!

2. Homeschoolshare

3. Enchanted Learning. This is a member site but you can find group buys that can allow you to get a membership for a really good price.

4. Pinterest. I search about everything in there

Follow Joelle's board Homeschool links on Pinterest.


5. My Facebook Groups. There are some really great Facebook groups out there, especially the ones for specific curriculum and the free resource ones. Again, use the search button to look for the ones that might be of help to you.

6. The Homeschool Curriculum Choice

7. You Tube. The search button is really helpful.

8. BBC school. I love this resource because they often have nice games and videos on some of the topics that we happen to be studying.

9. Book Adventure. I love using this site to gauge my boys' comprehension of some of the books they read.

10. The Library. I cannot stress how much I use my library. This is my number one  resource. It is packed with resources, and it is free. What else can I ask?

Come back tomorrow for more ressources.

Reformation Day Giveaway

We are approaching October 31, which is an important date for all protestants. This date commemorates Martin Luther’s nailing of his ninety-five theses to a church door on October 31, 1517 in Wittenburg, Germany, which in turn provoked a debate that resulted in what we now call the Protestant Reformation. As the “Father of the Reformation”, Martin Luther is a vital figure in Church History. His sacrifice and willingness to wage battle against the spiritual, religious, and political powers of his medieval world allowed Christians throughout time to embrace the following truths: salvation by grace alone , through faith alone,  and in Christ alone, along with the supremacy of Scripture, referred to as  Scripture alone, and all of it for God's Glory Alone. These being commonly called the Five Solas of the Reformation.  Danika Cooley, author and creator of the Bible curriculum Bible Road Trip ,  has recently written a book for young people recounting Luther's story:   When

Visual Learning Systems - TOS Review

I have to admit I am in love with our first review product from the 2015 crew year. We received a full year subscription to Visual Learning Systems 's Digital Online Science Program Elementary edition and S econdary edition . Science has always been one those subjects I am having all sort of trouble deciding what to use and never being fully satisfied with what we are doing. Well my search is over.
