Living Memory
By Andrew A. Campbell
Paperback: $34.95

I’ve had my eye on this book for quite some time. I hesitated to buy a book that was just a compilation of information I already had in other places. However, something that would genuinely assist me in getting all the topics covered that I feel guilty about — now that’s worth something!

This book is really WONDERFUL! I’ve only found it at Lulu http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/living-memory/4080865?productTrackingContext=search_results/search_shelf/center/6%3freviewItem#detailsSection

This comprehensive K-12 resource for memorization, copywork, and dictation can be used with any classical curriculum or as a handy reference for home or school.

Even though I KNOW how important memory is as a subject in school to supplement allllll their learning, it’s sooo difficult to fit in. Then when I finally find things I want each of the kids to memorize, it takes me weeks (or more) to find more once they’ve completed the task. Then, another year has gone by and I’ve put little to no memorization facts before the kids when I KNOW it’s important. THIS BOOK HELPS! It’s all there for me (and then some.) When we have to pare down all the extras in school due to the flu or other life happening, this books makes it so easy for me to choose what items to put back on the schedule easily.

I was amazed and impressed by the variety of subjects covered. I had to put tabs in mine to keep them all handy!

Latin – Bible Verses, Prayers, Songs / Greek / Math / Grammar / Literature – Songs, Poetry, Plays / Religion & Christmas / Geography / World History – Speeches / U.S. History – Songs, Speeches / Science

This will really help me accomplish the things I want to and keep my priorities, too. As a matter of fact, it already has! I ordered this a month before we ended school for the spring and the kids learned things I’ve been neglecting for years. THANK YOU, Andrew Campbell!

  • I called Jenn, desperate for help, preparing my student for her upcoming high school years homeschooling. She has great insight on the requirements for high school and also great suggestions on curriculum based on the students needs. Her follow up with an email included the notes from our meeting and the additional information she promised. Very pleased with her knowledge and professionalism and will be utilizing her services throughout high school! Now I’m beyond excited for the upcoming years knowing Jenn is there to help us!

  • Jenn is fantastic at helping you organize YOUR homeschool, not just implementing HERS in your home. When my family had some personal struggles that zapped my brain of it’s ability to function Jenn opened her co-op to my kids, shared her lesson plan layout and resource list…she took all the brain work out of the year for me. We execute plans in different ways but that is what is so beautiful about working with her……she is passionate about the TRUE essence of homeschooling which is the parents educating their children in a way that fits them. She is a walking, talking example of the best homeschool how-to book you’ll ever read!!
