I had an awesome time fellowshipping with my homeschool JOY sistas Pam, Michelle, and Jess last night. Jess introduced me to the Victoria Station Frozen Oreo coffee. OH YUM! What a treat. We brainstormed and came up with a schedule for our co-op from September through December. It will be great to be on a planned schedule. I’m excited to have 3 of our “older” kids join the group this time. It’s going to be a great homeschool year! Here are a few of my favorite homeschool websites.
- Edify at Home used curriculum
- Homeschool classifieds used curriculum
- Homeschool Buyers Co-op ***Be sure to tell them I sent you (7xjoy4him@charter.net) This is a FREE site that has incredible buys on great homeschool helps. Also have Free classifieds and Free Homeschool ID cards. Definitely worth a stop.
- Homechooling ABC’s by Terri at Knowledge Quest ***this is well worth the $ if you are new or looking for new ideas to put some sparkle into your homeschool year. Over $275 worth of FREE info in this class.
- Homeschooling your High Schooler by Terri at Knowledge Quest ***even better than the ABC’s if you have an older student just entering high school. EXCELLENT info in here.
- Blackline maps for World & American History ***Another excellent resource from Terri.
- Frugal Living and Having Fun This is a FREE site by a homeschool Mama of 3. I have saved a ton of money by matching coupons with sales and getting free samples through this site. It’s definitely one you will want to follow.
Ok, I think that is enough to keep you busy on this lovely Tuesday. I will share more links if folks are interested. Just let me know. Today I am off to help a homeschool Mama in RI to get rid of some of her homeschool books by listing them on online used curriculum sites. Make me a blessing today Lord.
Just a quickie from God’s Word…remember our JOY comes from Jesus alone.
Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits. Who forgiveth all thine iniquities, who healeth all thy diseases. Who redeemeth thy life from destruction, who crowneth thee with loving kindness and tender mercies. Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things, so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. He made known His ways unto Moses, His acts unto the children of Israel. The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. He will not always chide; neither will He keep His anger for ever. He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. For as the Heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our trangressions from us. Psalm 103:1-12
