Each child has a different subject, but there is just ONE of YOU. So, how do you schedule all the subjects in a homeschool day? Here are 2 very different options! My favorite method of daily scheduling involves a stack of colored sticky notes. Sometimes I do it on the wall or cleared off table […]
Sometimes there are deeper things going on in a child keeping him from good behavior. Those things must be uncovered. It’s also imperative to meet a child’s needs. However, as parents, we’re generally very adept at that. Once a child’s needs for healthy food, enough exercise, a loving environment, and creative outlets have been met […]
Give them a reason for being good and a consequence if they aren’t. I see my job as a parent is to teach them that being good (obedience to God, laws) has wonderful benefits (Heaven, citizenship) and not being good (disobedience to God, crime) has terrible consequences (Hell, prison). I love “catching them being good” […]
Yes, my 13yr old is really in charge of all the meals, planning, cooking and shopping for the year. Background: I read Little House On the Prairie to the girls when they were in 2nd grade & Kindergarten. In it, Ma left the girls (I think they were preteens) with the baby and the house […]
I had my chore list for up to 13, but I was floundering for non-academic things I needed to teach them after 13. A friend asked me for my list with this title. (That meant I had to make one!) This will change for each kid and I’ll hopefully add many resources, but here’s my […]
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!
Jennifer was very encouraging and helpful in consulting with me on my daughter’s struggle with reading. She gave me lots of helpful information and insight.
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!!
This has been the best help I have come upon in my homeschool adventure. Jenn has amazing insight and an enormous amount of resources and experience.
Jenn was instrumental in setting up educational goals for my children, outlining a schedule that was reasonable, and recommending curriculum for my kids (6th and kinder). She is knowledgeable and strategic in her suggestion of resources. Highly recommend!
