#sonlight #homeschool #reading #homeschoolcurriculum Many people choose to homeschool with a literature-based curriculum because they love books, or maybe they want their children to love books.  But how do you manage all the books Sonlight offers? Our literature showcases different perspectives, exposes you to works you may never have discovered on your own, and some are downright controversial.  What do you do when you don't have time to read everything, don't enjoy every book, your kids are struggling to pay attention, or you disagree with the author's views? Can you still homeschool successfully with Sonlight?  Yes, you can!  In this Homeschool Helps & Hacks, experienced Sonlighters share how to modify your curriculum to fit your family's unique needs, and why there might be some value in books you wouldn't normally consider.

This summer Jamie is on sabbatical for a few weeks, so we are revisiting a couple of the top episodes from the podcast's history! This one originally published in August 2021.

Kids finished school because I told them to skip the math problems (again). Eventually I remind myself of Chesterton's wisdom and the power of intentional mediocrity. Truth: We can't be awesome everywhere.
