The Last Days Way Journal
There are countless reasons to include nature study in your homeschool, but I’ll just focus on the reasons that make it invaluable to me. Creation is used throughout the entire Bible to point to its Creator. Trees, roots, branches, stars, rivers, torrents, sparrows, eagles, mountains, steams, deserts, gardens, clouds, constellations, rocks, fire, seeds, wildflowers- can […]
Introduction We are studying the 1700’s, and I am so deep in planning that I’m actually starting to have dreams that I live in colonial times. We are focusing on following the 1700’s chronologically, while also digging in on diverse perspectives within the colonial era. I see a lot of mamas in the Charlotte Mason […]
We have officially finished out the 2025-2025 school year, so this is the time of year where I get to come here and reflect. I personally enjoy coming back to these blog posts and reminding myself of what we accomplished and the memories we made. I also like to be share what we actually used […]
Lately, I’ve been asked to share how our family ultimately decided to go with a stricter Charlotte Mason philosophy as opposed the more eclectic Charlotte Mason “leaning” philosophy that we held before. This decision has come with much thought and prayer. I was the girl who said I’d never be caught dead reading six volumes […]
This year has, without a doubt, been the most successful homeschooling year yet. What’s laughable about that fact is that our life has also never been more full of uncertainty. We are currently living with my parents in a very small, quaint townhome where we have very little space for schooling. 95% of our materials […]
In my latest blog post, I shared our 3rd grade and Kindergarten curriculum and resources. A few of you reached out to me and said, “I’m so inspired, but also overwhelmed!” First, I want to say this: you will always be overwhelmed if you are doing something that the Holy Spirit doesn’t have for YOUR […]
The Holy Spirit has been so clear with what He wants our family to focus on this year. I’m not immune to the onslaught of FOMO when everyone starts sharing what they’re using- but knowing that we’ve heard His voice keeps us laser focused and content. When I wrote A Spirit-led Guide to Homeschooling, I […]
For our family, Spring and Summer plans look like tying up the loose ends of our Fall and Winter subjects, while also implementing new and fun plans for the warmer months. During the Autumn and Winter, we focused on these subjects. By the time Spring came along, we had already completed our Around the World […]
Ever since my home education journey began back in 2019, I’ve noticed a huge gap in the homeschool community online. While many in the Christian homeschool space would speak of the Holy Spirit being the initiator of their desire to homeschool, I didn’t see many discussing the need for the Holy Spirit in the curation […]
Although the year isn’t quite over, I think I can confidently share what we’ve used and loved. 2nd grade has been such a turning point year. I can honestly say it’s the year we’ve really found our rhythm. I’ve honed in on my style of homeschooling, which is a blend of Charlotte Mason and unschooling. […]
