This Week!
This week is a great time for ingredients 6-8 from
Leadership Education:
6. A six-month purge
7. A six-month "no"
8. A six month inventory
"I got the notion a couple of days ago that it was time for a Retreat. As you might know, in our book, Leadership Education: The Phases of Learning,
we describe 55 Ingredients for a home that fosters optimal
development, self-education, family unity, preparation for a productive
life, and happiness.
"Some of the most important of those are:
- The Six-month "No"
- The Six-month "Purge"
- The Six-month "Inventory""
For more on these empowering and inspirational ingredients, and ideas on how to carry them off, read Rachel's blog: "Start the New Year Right"

You can now sign up for ALEKS math
instruction through TJEd.org, and one of our helpful assistants will facilitate
your membership. This excellent instructional program/supplement (depending on
how you want to use it) can cost $240 a year per student for
homeschooling families.
Through
TJEd.org you can save upwards of 2/3 on the cost of a yearly subscription; and with multiple students from the same
family, you save even more.
With included assessments and
instruction from K-12+, ALEKS will help you:
- facilitate independent learning
- build math competency
- aid in college prep
- document compliance with
district, state and provincial requirements
My own daughters have enjoyed being
able to go at their own pace, and go from level to level-all for the same price
of the yearly subscription.

Classics

No one can deny the value of a great idea well- commu-nicated. The
inspiration, innovation and ingenuity inherent in great ideas elevate
those who study them.
Great ideas are most effectively learned directly from the greatest
thinkers, historians, artists, philosophers and prophets, and their
original works.
Great works inspire greatness, just as mediocre or poor works usually
inspire mediocre and poor achievement. The great accomplishments of
humanity are the key to quality education.
A "classic" is a work (be it literature, music, art, etc.) that's worth returning to over and over because you get more from it
each time.
