The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine is having an amazing sale on subscriptions
during their annual Black Friday Sale November 26 – 30. For those 5 days
only, they are actually lowering their new one-year U.S. subscription price
to $7.95! That's the price you would usually pay for just one issue at a
bookstore!
This is their lowest price ever on the magazine and they want all of you to
take advantage of this offer and share the info with your friends.
Please don't miss out. Your one-year subscription will pay for itself time
and time again as you receive practical tips and Biblical encouragement to
keep going strong in your commitment to homeschooling and to the Lord. Since
it's a quarterly magazine, they even have a monthly subscriber's only
E-Newsletter called Teacher's Toolbox that will give you seasonal teaching
ideas and a free E-Book download! It's like joining a unit study of the
month club! The free E-Books alone are valued at almost $250/year. It's
really perfect for people who are homeschooling on a shoestring or just
wanting to add in some little extras to your teaching.
Plus during the Black Friday Sale, they have all kind of bonus gifts when
you spend $50, $75, $100, or $150. Some are electronic downloads that you
can download immediately, while other are physical products mailed from
various vendors directly to your home.

Children's Dance Theatre is a unique dance experience for children,
based on the philosophy that dance for children should be both
disciplined and liberating, building self-esteem as well as developing
an appreciation for dance as participant and observer. At Children's
Dance Theatre, learning dance and loving dance go hand in hand. Through
classes, offered in a non-competitive, supportive atmosphere, children
grow to appreciate the beauty and power of both the art of dance and
themselves. Costumes and props such as tutus, tiaras, masks,
tambourines and ribbons enliven and enhance the dance experience.
Children help create and participate in two "low-stress" performances
each year. The emphasis remains on learning, loving and enjoyment
rather than anxiety-producing tryouts and exhausting rehearsal
schedules. All children are fully involved regardless of body, stature,
and ability.
The Alaska Fine Arts Academy was founded in 1984 by Art and Eleanor
Braendel and has been serving the Eagle River community ever since. Our
Mission is to enrich our community by providing arts education and
cultural experience for all.
We believe that:
involvement in the arts is an important part of an individual's
and a community's well-being.
art instructions should be available to everyone---regardless of
age, gender, race, income or previous experience.
and, we believe that, as we creatively engage our environment we
will become better citizens and develop stronger connections to our
community and our neighbors.
