I’ve been thinking a lot lately about my old reviewing days because for years, I would receive homeschool curriculum and do comparison overviews and I really thought I was helping. But the more I’ve stepped back from that, the more I’ve realized something I didn’t expect . . . I think it was actually making things harder. Instead of helping people be confident in their choices, I was showing a million different options like sauntering down the aisles of Wal-mart. It kept us searching for something better, something easier, something that would finally make everything click. And I don’t think that’s what most of us actually needed. If you’ve been feeling behind or overwhelmed or like you’re constantly trying to figure out what’s missing, I think this might help. And there are a whole lot more of these coming so don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss them! |

As students move up, they’ll explore multiplication with decimals, integers,...
It all ends tonight . . . Over the last couple of days, I've seen how excited families are once they open up their Legacy Pass and see what it actually means. I can't help but be struck by fact that this is about so much more than curriculum. This is a movement of families who are looking for more than "information stuffing". We are looking for conversations, understanding, and a generation of young people who can think for themselves and lead us to wisdom. A few years back, I was asked to...
Hi Reader, My name is Hannah, a homeschool mom of five (soon to be six!). Our family began our homeschool journey 4 years ago, with our eldest daughter entering kindergarten. We live in rural northern Alberta, Canada and are a first generation farming family. When we originally started out with our homeschool, each year I would begin by doing so much research - looking for curriculum that would fit our family, and it was always such a big job. I always wondering if I would like the curriculum...
