The 2009-2010 HomeschoolingBooks.com catalogue came recently. This is one of the few catalogues that I keep. HomeschoolingBooks.com is a service of Mott Media, publishers of the original McGuffey Readers, Ray's Arithmetics, Harvey's Grammars, Spencerian Penmanship, Mrs. Silver's Phonics, many of Ruth Beechick's books, and other useful homeschooling materials. The catalogue is chocked full of items from various publishers besides themselves in the following categories: Phonics, Reading, and Literature; Biography and Fiction; Writing and Grammar; Spelling, Vocabulary, and Penmanship; Arithmetic and Mathematics; Science and Creation Studies; Bibles, Bible curriculum,, and Bible references; History, Geography, Economics, and Government; Foundations, Electives, and Unit Studies (including critical thinking, worldview, life skills, character, "sex education," health, physical education, preschool, music, art, and foreign language); and Teaching Resources. You can buy single items, mix and match to create your own curriculum, or obtain their comprehensive curricula. We used their texts with accompanying workbooks for our reading, writing, and arithmetic in grades one through four. Let me just add, as one who has been homeschooling for many years, that the late George M. Mott was quietly selling quality educational materials based on a Biblical worldview to homeschoolers back in a day when A Beka and Bob Jones refused to do so. Therefore, Mott Media has always had a special place in my heart, and I have tried to purchase as much of our homeschooling resources from them as possible. The website is www.homeschoolingbooks.com , although I have always just called their toll-free number, 1-866-473-0737, because the staff is so helpful and I just enjoy talking to them.
