Homeschooling A Highschooler?

Are you homeschooling a highschooler?

I'd like to introduce you to the HomeScholar Helper. They have so much wonderful information on their blog. The posts are written by both the mother and the father of a family and they have plenty of experience to share!

Even if you don't have a highschooler, there is plenty of info and encouragement to help anyone!

Check out this WONDERFUL post on Purposeful and Intentional Parenting. It is beautifully worded and includes Scripture to live by. Very inspirational... I found it at The Stay At Home Missionary. She has a beautiful blog for moms.

Thank YOU Jan Mader! I do so appreciate it! I haven't posted much on here for the last week because I've been having to go to the chiropractor. I'm better now!

Meet The Children's Author Jan Mader / Get Writing Ideas

Two days ago, I said that I would introduce you to a children's author who has WONDERFUL writing ideas! Her name is Jan Mader. I'm not even sure how we met but I am so glad we found each other.

Because of Jan's great ideas, the 2 Espressos have found joy in writing. True, their projects have been smaller (not 3 page essays) but I am sure it has "ignited" them to write!

If your child (or yourself) has "hate issues" with writing, sneak in some of Jan's ideas and writing activities and they won't even realize that you have devised a plan to get them writing!


Here are some of my favorite exercises from Jan's blog:

My all-time favorite, the post that got us writing:
Green! Green!

Outside The Box Again


If you try some of her ideas, please let her know. If you have any to share, please share them with both of us!!
