Book Description
Thirty daily readings to build up your confidence and cheerfulness as you homeschool. Homeschool days can be long and hard. It's easy to lose sight of what's actually happening in the midst of the day to day. Even when we lose our vision, God does not lose His. While we attempt to teach and disciple our children, we find that it is ourselves needing the instruction and discipleship. We also find that God provides both, using our decision to homeschool to draw us closer to Himself. To continue with love and perseverance, we need confidence not in our work but in God's. These thirty readings will lift up your eyes and spirit so you can focus on what truly matters while doing the daily work of educating your kids. "This volume is a wonderful resource of wisdom for moms everywhere who struggle and wonder if they are doing enough." --Cindy Rollins, author of Mere Motherhood

Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 34
Book Description
Cold winters, hot summers--year after year the seasons repeat themselves. But what causes them?

With simple language appropriate for young readers, non-fiction master Gail Gibbons introduces young readers to the four seasons and explains why they change throughout the year. Newly revised and vetted by experts, this updated edition of The Reasons for Seasons introduces the solstices, the equinoxes, and the tilt in Earth's axis that causes them, and gives examples of what each season is like across the globe from pole to pole. Clear, simple diagrams of the earth's orbit are labeled with important vocabulary, explained and reinforced with accessible explanations. Fascinating and easy to understand, this is a perfect introduction to seasons, earth's orbit, and axial tilt. Different effects on different parts of the world are included, illustrating the difference in climate between the equator, the northern and southern hemispheres, and the polar regions.

Norms and Nobility
Author: David V. Hicks
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538195364
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
A reissue of a classic text, Norms and Nobility is a provocative reappraisal of classical education that offers a workable program for contemporary school reform. David Hicks contends that the classical tradition promotes a spirit of inquiry that is concerned with the development of style and conscience, which makes it an effective and meaningful form of education. Dismissing notions that classical education is elitist and irrelevant, Hicks argues that the classical tradition can meet the needs of our increasingly technological society as well as serve as a feasible model for mass education.
