Homeschool High School Science

by guest author Cindy Puhek

Teaching high school science from home isn’t just possible. I think homeschooling is the superior methodology. The point of science is to learn to think creatively and to solve problems.

The students I taught who had been in classrooms all their lives were very passive learners for the most part. They felt my job as a teacher was to transfer information to them in such a way that they would need to put forth as little effort as possible and still pass the course. This passive learning stance is not conducive to creative thinking or problem solving.

Foundational Hymns for the Christian Home

By guest author Marcia Washburn

The theme for the upcoming Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference is “Christ the Cornerstone.” As you prepare your family for the messages you will hear, consider studying some of the great hymns of the faith that speak of the firm foundation of the Christian faith.

Every generation contributes its own hymns and spiritual songs.

A hymn isn’t great merely because it is old, and a praise song is not great simply because it is new and fresh. Evaluate each song or hymn on its own merits: Does it lead believers to worship? Is it theologically sound? Does it have enough depth of insight to encourage the singer to “chew” on it, deriving deeper meanings with repeated hearings?

Eldercare and Homeschooling

By guest author Adriana Caruso

Honoring our fathers and mothers in old age is not some kind of suggestion for us as followers of Christ. It is a commandment and a privilege. As a homeschooling family, we had the honor of taking care of Grandpa in our own home for several years, most of which were enjoyed in good health by God’s grace.

God’s model for education is discipleship. Bringing Papa home was a great opportunity for our daughters to learn from him, given the wisdom of his years. Papa was a prisoner of war during World War II, and he would often tell us around the dinner table about his experiences during that time.
