Thank you very much for recommending "Bible in a Year" with Fr Mike Schmitz! It is truly a very useful and well developed resource to learn about the Bible! Many blessings to all!
04-Sep-2023 Just finished "A GIRL OF THE LIMBERLOST" (audio-book and the "Gutenberg Project"). Thank you very much for recommending this book: the plot resolved all the values of the characters harmoniously! Very impressive! However, there are 2 incidents of animal cruelty. I was wondering if you recommend the books of Grace Livingston Hill; my favorite so far is "The Enchanted Barn". Thanks again for creating this video with so much valuable information! Many blessings to all!
Hello- we have not read any of the GLH books, but they look interesting, and there are so many set during the holidays. Glad you enjoyed "A Girl of the Limberlost"; it is a favorite here!
Y'all are one of my favorite homeschool resources! I've gotten SO MANY great book recommendations and have learned a lot from both of you. You have no idea how many times I pause your videos so I can write down what you said. ❤
I taught IEW and loved it when I taught at a private school/homeschool hybrid. I actually met Andrew Pudewa, my only claim to fame… other than The Chosen’s #f5k 🎉😂
Can you hook me up with the grammar and writing books or at least titles. I understand why yeah enjoyed home school what if it took you 20 years graduate from high school, the nuts that much to say about homeschooling do be proud of!😂 You should've took Chinese at least Mandarin, how about Latin language. I think you for all the information, I didn't think I'd enjoy this video but thank you I realize do you have more than one child yeah it has been 20 years of homeschooling and that 20 years the graduate hi school.🙏
Lol- yes, it was more than one student over 20 years. We did study two years of Latin here using Visual Latin, and we liked it, but it was not our favorite foreign language program. Since this video was about our top picks, we didn't talk about Latin (though we would rank this as #2 behind Fluenz). For grammar and writing, we used grade appropriate levels from IEW (giving you an example here): iew.com/taxonomy/term/8/?f%5B0%5D=im_field_grade_level%3A8 iew.com/shop/products/fix-it-grammar™-level-3-robin-hood- teacherstudent-combo and also clearwaterpress.com/oneyearnovel/ We're so glad you enjoyed the video; thanks for watching!
