Did Someone Say Pre-Orders?


Count down to 2026-05-11T03:59:00.000Z

There are 3 days left of our Back to School Sale, and I wanted to touch on our pre-orders for a few of our upcoming units. This is actually really cool because you can secure them ahead of time (you won’t receive your full order until they launch), but you still get to take advantage of the 20% off.

Our pre-orders right now are Homestead Kitchen, Mock Trial, Christmas Through the Arts, and Ancient Egypt. You will need to purchase each separately as free shipping does not apply on these (they will each ship at different times and the order will be held until they are released which could be 4-8 months depending on the unit).

Homestead Kitchen
Let’s head to the busiest room of the house and see what has made it so special throughout history. From sourdough and grinding grain to canning veggies, this unit takes you back to a simpler time. Topics include homemade treats, nutrition, historical cooking methods, and more.

Mock Trial
Join us for our third unit in the Living Lessons series. In this 12-lesson mini unit, you’ll learn about the US court system, how it works, and follow a homeschool family as they learn their rights and responsibilities. A great way to learn homeschool laws while also seeing how a trial operates.

Christmas Through the Arts
Join us for our second unit in the Living Lessons series. In this 12-lesson mini unit, students will explore the Christmas story through poetry, song lyrics, short stories, and scripts. They’ll be encouraged to create their own performance while learning about dialogue, sets, projection, costumes, and more. Includes an optional play based on The Other Wise Man.

Ancient Egypt
Join us on a journey through Ancient Egypt. This unit, written by Rebecca, weaves the story of Egypt together with the story of the Israelite people. Students will see how everything connects, with daily Bible pages covering the plagues and Exodus story. It’s a great group unit with hands-on activities for all ages.

We will be doing Mock Trial and Christmas Through the Arts inside the Online Academy, so if you want more details check them out here.
