Are you considering homeschooling this fall? If you're new to the idea and looking for a neat way to get started, let me suggest looking into Progeny Press and their classic literature study guides.

However, for the last few weeks, we have been using the Progeny Press My Side of the Mountain Study Guide , a study guide written for grades 5-8th, as we read the book...

I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.Thanks to the Homeschool Review Crew, we had a chance to review MaxScholar Orton-Gillingham Software from MaxScholar. I thought it would be a great way for the younger children to work on improving their language arts skills. We were given a six-month subscription which includes one teacher account and up to five student accounts. As Tabitha and Amelia used it in the past, they were not interested, so I chose to use it with just Hannah and Harold at this time. I figured it would be...
