"I think ultimately what God wants is to refine us in this homeschooling process. It's not like we're the ones that have it together and we're teaching these children to get it together. It's that we're all people that need refined, and we're all people that need to depend on the Lord. And it's just something we're all working through together." - Aby Rinella Yvette Hampton and Aby Rinella share their vision for a fun-filled homeschooling year. Aby discusses the benefits of literature-based learning, the challenges of balancing multiple cores, and how audiobooks have become an invaluable resource. With insights into teaching anatomy and physiology, Aby also shares how they are fostering their daughters' love for God's Word and engaging in interactive learning activities. Join us as we embark on a journey of homeschooling success and personal growth! Watch this full conversation on our YouTube channel. Discussion Questions For the Series: How do you feel about Aby's approach to teaching American history through literature? Do you think this method would be effective for your own children? Have you ever felt overwhelmed by managing multiple cores or subjects? How did you handle it, and did you find any resources or strategies helpful? What are your thoughts on incorporating natural medicine into the study of anatomy and physiology? Do you think it adds value to the curriculum? Why or why not? Reflect on your own experiences of signing up for extracurricular activities or co-op classes without thinking it through. How did it impact your schedule and overall homeschooling experience? How do you prioritize building relationships with your children in your homeschooling routine? Do you find it challenging to balance academics and fostering strong connections? Have you ever had to switch or change curricula in the middle of the school year? How did it affect your homeschooling dynamic?

The Break Room (WEDNESDAY 9/20/23) 8am Hour Includes:  1) Not only does this man believe homeschooling your kid is wrong, he says it's actually a crime.  2) When it doubt, put a brewery in it... ESPECIALLY if you're a small town looking to attract some outside business. 3) If you can keep the dream going, why wouldn't you at least try?

In this  episode, we confront the unsettling reality we face when we hear about yet another shooting incident on the news. The initial shock prompts us to turn off the radio and protect our children from the distressing details. However, beneath the relief that our kids are safe from a school shooting, there lingers a nagging fear. Do our children, and do we ourselves, know how to respond if a similar tragedy unfolds in a local store or restaurant?Homeschool dad and police sergeant Seth Cimino joins the podcast this week to help banish that fear. Together, we aim to equip you with the knowledge to gently train your kids on how to navigate the unthinkable. Tune in as we explore strategies and insights to ensure your family is prepared to handle the worst-case scenario with resilience and readiness.Show notes:FBI "Run, Hide, Fight"

Welcome to another episode of our “Best Of” Series on The Literary Life with Angelina Stanford, Cindy Rollins, and Thomas Banks. Both this week and next, our hosts will be discussing J. R. R. Tolkien's short story “Leaf by Niggle“. Angelina sets the stage with a little historical background on Tolkien's writing of this story as well as some thoughts on allegory and how to read a fairy tale. She talks about this story as an exploration of the struggle of the ideals and demands of art against the demands of practical life and the question of whether or not art is useful. Cindy shares her ideas about the importance of the Inklings for Tolkien to get his work out into the world. Angelina shares about the type of journey on which the main character, Niggle, is called to go on in this story. As you read, we encourage you to look for how Tolkien harmonizes the different tensions within the story. Commonplace Quotes: Here are some of the points which make a story worth studying to tell to the nestling listeners in many a sweet “Children's Hour”;––graceful and artistic details; moral impulse of a high order, conveyed with a strong and delicate touch; sweet human affection; a tender, fanciful link between the children and the Nature-world; humour, pathos, righteous satire, and last, but not least, the fact that the story does not turn on children, and does not foster that self-consciousness, the dawn of which in the child is, perhaps, the individual “Fall of Man.” Charlotte Mason The essay began by noting that total war was underway, with fighting not only “in the field and on the sea and in the air,” but also in “the realm of ideas.” It said: “The mightiest single weapon this war has yet employed” was “not a plane, or a bomb or a juggernaut of tanks”–it was Mein Kampf. This single book caused an educated nation to “burn the great books that keep liberty fresh in the hearts of men.” If America's goal was victory and world peace, “all of us will have to know more and think better than our enemies think and know,” the council asserted. “This was is a war of books. . . Books are our weapons.” Molly Guptill Manning, quoting from the essay “Books and the War” In everything I have sought peace and not found it, save in a corner with a book. Thomas à Kempis Milton by Edward Muir Milton, his face set fair for Paradise, And knowing that he and Paradise were lost In separate desolation, bravely crossed Into his second night and paid his price. There towards the end he to the dark tower came Set square in the gate, a mass of blackened stone Crowned with vermilion fiends like streamers blown From a great funnel filled with roaring flame. Shut in his darkness, these he could not see, But heard the steely clamour known too well On Saturday nights in every street in Hell. Where, past the devilish din, could Paradise be? A footstep more, and his unblinded eyes Saw far and near the fields of Paradise. Book List: Formation of Character by Charlotte Mason When Books Went to War by Molly Guptill Manning The Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis Planet Narnia by Michael Ward The Company They Keep by Diana Pavlac Glyer Smith of Wooten Major by J. R. R. Tolkien Farmer Giles of Ham by J. R. R. Tolkien Letters from Father Christmas by J. R. R. Tolkien A Hobbit, a Wardrobe, and a Great War by Joseph Loconte Spirits in Bondage by C. S.

God is wooing us to Himself with the wonder and beauty in His world. When we chase the wonder in creation, we draw near to the creator and find what He is waiting for us to discover.  Listen this week as guest Amy Jones describes how a classical, Christian community can help your family promote more wonder in your homeschool.  And, hear how one of the activities from Scribblers At Home:  Recipes from Lifelong Learners can open your family's eyes to wonder in your own backyard.

Have your student's struggles taken over the trajectory of your at-home learning to where you are more frustrated than motivated in helping your child learn? Change is possible and much easier than you would think. In this episode, we talk about the one thing that is leading to most of your frustration and how you can homeschool effectively without its influence.  Our special guest this week on Empowering Homeschool Conversations was Lindsay Leiviska, MAT, SNAM, ADHD Homeschool mom, blogger and author. Lindsay shared with us about "Purpose-Driven Homeschool Instruction"  Viewers like you funded similar episodes, and other free resources from SPED Homeschool.

Today we join Tina Hollenbeck. Author of 8 Great Smarts for Homeschoolers and creator of The Homeschool Resource Roadmap. This podcast was originally recorded as 1 interview which I split up into 2 parts. The first part covers Tina's story and how she got into homeschooling after being a teacher for many years. Throughout her story we learn that the journey that led her to creating the Homeschool Resource Roadmap actually started off as a 'little' personal project jumpstarted from Common Core making an appearance. Don't stop there though, be sure to stick around for part 2 as we go into the different styles of homeschooling and the book she wrote; 8 Great Smarts for Homeschoolers! TINA HOLLENBECK BIO:Tina and her husband Jeff educated their Irish-Twin daughters from home for the girls' whole lives, graduating them together in Spring 2020. Tina began actively advocating for homeschooling parents in March 2013, with the creation of her free curriculum database, The Homeschool Resource Roadmap. From that foundation, she subsequently created other resources, including a homeschool-parent resource center for home educators in her local area and an online discussion group that connects Christian homeschoolers across the country. She's also written a book, 8 Great Smarts for Homeschoolers, published by Moody Publishers in August 2021. When not thinking or talking about homeschooling, Tina cheerleads for her husband, daughters, and son-in-law; laughs at her cats' antics; cherishes the opportunity to serve on her church's worship team; and dotes on her first grandchild, born in December 2022. Resources: Tina's website: https://www.homeschoolroadmap.org/ Israel Wayne has several books for homeschoolers, including Education: Does God Have an Opinion? He is a homeschool grad (his mom homeschooled his siblings and him before it was legal as a single mom!) and current homeschool dad himself. The pastor mentioned who strongly advocates for homeschooling is Voddie Baucham. When You Rise Up by RC Sproul Jr. The literature “guide”/book list Honey for a Child's Heart (by Gladys Hunt) (andHoney for a Teen's Heart too). The “style quiz” is here: https://eclectic-homeschool.com/homeschool-philosophies-quiz/ Tina's podcast has two versions: 94 episodes of The Homeschool Loftcast and The Homeschool Loftcast 2.0. They're both available on all the typical platforms, but here are the links from Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-homeschool-loftcast/id1570355117 and https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-homeschool-loftcast-2-0/id1691159818. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/anna-brayton/support

People have been referring to unschooling as unparenting for decades - and nothing could be farther from the truth!When people use the term “unparenting,” they usually mean something like this:No assistance or direction from the parentsParents who don't publicly reprimand their kids when they don't conform socially.Parents not enforcing bed times, allowing “back talk,” – not adhering to mainstream parenting techniquesKids who seem wild in public, maybe presenting with messy hair/poor hygieneTrue UnParenting is neglect – and that's the opposite of unschooling. People who are unparenting are ignoring, avoiding and not engaging with their children. Unschoolers fuel their child's interests.Unschoolers expose their kids to new opportunities. Unschooling parents console their kids when things don't work out.Unschooling parents become their child'sbiggest source of support and love. Those are the very things that make unschooling work out – unschooling parents do all of that!Sue Patterson shares why people may accuse unschoolers of unparenting, offers explanations for this misconception AND solutions to dispel the myth.SPECIAL DEAL for UNSCHOOLING MOM2MOM PODCAST LISTENERS:Creating Confidence Membership Group - without the sign up fee!2 group coaching calls every weekA Supportive community of unschooling parentsExclusive Unschooling Resource Library with over 500 PDFs, recordings, discussions, videos, and worksheets - only available to members! Access to Sue's nearly 30 years of unschooling/homeschooling experienceHere's the link for the Podcast transcript____________________________________________Reach out if you need help figuring out how unschooling can work for your family!

"I think ultimately what God wants is to refine us in this homeschooling process. It's not like we're the ones that have it together and we're teaching these children to get it together. It's that we're all people that need refined, and we're all people that need to depend on the Lord. And it's just something we're all working through together." - Aby Rinella   Join us for an inspiring episode of the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast, as Aby Rinella is back with Yvette Hampton to discuss their excitement about the new homeschool year.

She also shares her strategies for effective planning and how they have revamped their curriculum to make homeschooling even more engaging and enjoyable. Come back Wednesday and Thursday for the rest of this important conversation. Watch this full conversation on our YouTube channel.

What are your thoughts on incorporating natural medicine into the study of anatomy and physiology? Do you think it adds value to the curriculum? Why or why not? Reflect on your own experiences of signing up for extracurricular activities or co-op classes without thinking it through. How did it impact your schedule and overall homeschooling experience? How do you prioritize building relationships with your children in your homeschooling routine? Do you find it challenging to balance academics and fostering strong connections? Have you ever had to switch or change curricula in the middle of the school year? How did it affect your homeschooling dynamic?

Today on The Literary Life podcast, we bring you another episode from the “Best of” series vault, our discussion of J. R. R. Tolkien's essay “On Fairy Stories“. Tune in again over the next two weeks as we continue the conversation with Tolkien's short story Leaf by Niggle. If you missed the 2020 Back to School conference that Cindy introduced in this episode, you can still get the recording at MorningTimeforMoms.com. Angelina sets the stage for this discussion by orienting us to the context for the essay by Tolkien as a critique of what is considered a fairy story. She points out the difference between cautionary tales like those by Charles Perrault and the German folk and fairy tales collected by the Grimm Brothers. Our hosts highlight Tolkien's definition of true fairy stories, ones that take place in the “perilous realm” and involve a journey element. He critiques Andrew Lang as including many stories as fairy tale that are not truly fairy stories. They also discuss topics from the essay including sub-creation, magic and spells, suspension of disbelief, and children's responses to fairy stories. Commonplace Quotes: One should forgive one's enemies, but only after they are hanged. Heinrich Heine The German folk soul can again express itself. These flames do not only illuminate the final end of the old era. They also light up the new. Never before have the young men had so good a right to clean up the debris of the past. If the old men do not understand what is going on, let them grasp that we young men have gone and done it. The old goes up in flames. The new shall be fashioned from the flame of our hearts. Joseph Goebbles Human beings are not human doings. Nigel Goodwin Into My Heart an Air That Kills by A. E. Houseman Into my heart an air that kills From yon far country blows; What are those far remembered hills, What spires, what towns are those? That is the land of lost content, I see it shining plain, The happy highways where I went And cannot go again.

Our lives consist of an innumerable series of "Yes's" and "No's". Our job is to make sure we're giving the right answers to the right questions and this certainly applies to our homeschools. Are we saying "Yes" to things that are proving a distraction to our homeschool and ultimately our family? Are we too often saying "No" to simple requests on the part of our children to spend time with them? Our homeschooling efforts are made up of such questions and our respective answers determine their ultimate success or failure.   About Sean Sean Allen is the founder of The Well Ordered Homeschool, husband to his beautiful bride Caroline and a proud father of eight.
