Sponsor #1: The Homeschool Revolution by Izzy Lyman
At last! A book that offers a readable overview of the modern-day homeschooling movement from Isabel Lyman, a freelance journalist and one-woman think tank. The Homeschooling Revolution, a 142-page paperback published by Bench Press International of Amherst, Mass., is one of the best introductions to the homeschooling movement available, complete with heartwarming vignettes, research information, "war stories," media reaction and much more.
Sponsor #2: The Five-Finger Paragraph Homeschool Kit by Johnnie Lewis
The Five Finger Paragraphฉ books for HomeSchooled students are designed for initial introduction to the Five Finger Paragraphฉ Methods for Kindergarten through Twelfth Grade students. The method is also quite effective when used as subsequent or remedial instruction material for students who function at grade level or below. The materials introduce paragraphs and give explicit instructions for two methods of writing essays. Also quite effective in helping students prepare for the SAT/ACT exams. Illustrations on almost every page. Parents' editions (8 1/2 x 11) contain the student edition on every page, as well as instructional aids and helpful hints. Student editions are 5 x 8. Both editions are coil-bound.
HomeSchool Kits of The Five Finger Paragraphฉ books and instructional aids, appropriate for grades K-12, contain: 1 Parents' Edition, 1 Student Edition, 2 Quick Guide Cards, 2 Bookmarkers, 5 Wall Charts, and 1 Dry Erase marker. Additional student books can be added at $6.50 per copy when ordered at the same time as the Home School kit.
Remember, the book is not consumable, it is reuseable. The WallCharts are also reuseable. Unless you have many children who will be taught the same information simultaneously, you might not need additional copies of the student edition.
