� Jan. 3, 2008 - A New Year
I am excited to start a new year of homeschooling. This past semester of using a more traditional textbook approach to homeschooling using BJU Homesat combined with lots of hands-on activities, read-alouds and unit-study type extensions of some of the themes from the BJU subjects.
I have enjoyed the BJU reading lists and additional activities that are given in the BJU Press teacher's manual that make expanding our learning so easy.
I only regret that for the initial years of my homeschooling I was so biased against what is called "traditional homeschooling" because I thought it was diametrically opposed to read-alouds, hands-on activities and unit studies and those views were incorrect.
I continue to praise God for Chase's amazing growth this past few months, both academically and spiritually. Chase made the decision to accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior and he was baptized in November!
I give all the glory to God for leading us to a homeschooling system that works well for us and is guiding us in the right direction.
Happy New Year everyone! |
