The Secret of Joy in Homeschooling
Why do we struggle as homeschooling moms with frustration, anger, and discontentment? Can we homeschool through trials and difficulties? How do we find joy in our homeschooling journey when the path gets bumpy or boring? Meredith shares life-changing principles that will help you see life’s challenges from a different perspective and impart hope for the future!
The Seven R’s of Homeschooling
“Major on the majors” and “minor on the minors” in your homeschooling. Focus on the Seven R’s: Relationships, Reading, (w)Riting, (a)Rithmetic, Research, Rhetoric, and Right living. This will lay a foundation in your children’s life for all kinds of learning and growing so that they can walk in the path chosen for them by the Lord.
When Personalities Collide – Homeschooling Middle & High School
More than learning styles, personalities tend to influence how students want to learn in high school. Mom and Dad’s personalities affect their teaching styles. Sometimes personalities collide, resulting in conflict, learning problems, and getting off track. Meredith will share ways to homeschool with your teens and your own personalities in view.
Teaching History the Fun Way!
History is far more than rote memorization of dates and events. Let your family discover people, places, events, clothing, music, art, culture, and food from other times and places. As your family sees God’s providential hand in HIS Story, there will be an excitement and curiosity about history.
Wonderful, Wacky Teenagers
Even the godliest of children can be a little wacky when they hit puberty. With hormones rushing through their bloodstream, teens can be highly emotional, need more sleep, and have serious lapses in judgment. Yet, they are wonderful, interesting, funny, energetic, and enchanting. If they fall in love with Jesus, they are full of zeal and live passionately for the purposes of God. How can you enjoy your teenager, maintain parental authority, and guide them to adult independence?
Mentoring Model of Homeschooling
More is caught, than taught. Look at homeschooling in a new light, as an opportunity to imitate Jesus, who traveled with his disciples 24/ 7 for three years, teaching and training them. What kind of teaching style and curriculum choices work with this model? Can this educational philosophy work in your home school?
Homeschooling High School: Unlocking the Mysteries of Classes & Credits
Common fears and worries will be dispelled. Learn about planning courses, credits, and keeping transcripts. What is the difference between college and high school credits? How can you plan an education for your teens that will honor Christ and impress colleges? What about the teen who is not heading for college? Can you still use delight-directed and personalized studies in high school? Let Meredith take the fear out of teaching high school at home! You can do this!
