Homeschool Blogging

Recently I have gotten many inquiries about how we homeschool.  I have decided to add more of our homeschooling life to my blog.  I will try to update daily or weekly to this section.  My plan is to add videos of lessons, plans, the ups and downs, and much more. I have already added our schedule and our son is 8 which would be considered around 2nd grade.

We like the Charlotte Mason method and I LOVE what Sonya Shafer has done to help make the Charlotte Mason method easy to adapt to our homeschool.  Her site is Simply Charlotte Mason and it is just that...simple. I was able to make my schedule using her site and find all the resources to help with each area of my schedule.  I highly recommend going to the site and exploring.

As I post our plans and activities I will also link to any sites that I have used for those activities.

I hope you enjoy and learn as we do throughout the year!

Blessings,
Amy
