The summer digital issue of The Old Schoolhouse (homeschool magazine) has just been released and guess what? You can read the whole thing for FREE. Yup, they’re giving you a sneak peak and you get to see for yourself what kind of homeschooling gold nuggets they put in there.

In this issue, they give you some insight into the Charlotte Mason style of teaching. There’s also some advice for those considering homeschooling. There is some info on dyslexia and autism.

Instead of me telling you all the different kinds of homeschooling help you can get from the magazine, why don’t you just head over there and read it for yourself. Just click the banner below:

This is a game in one of my son’s books. It helps to teach the concept of “up” and “down”.

It needs 2 players, so here is an opportunity to “play” with your child.

• You’ll need 2 counters. You can cut 2 circles from a used cereal box (or something that is just as thick) and draw a koala bear on each circle.
• You’ll also need a die with numbers 1-6.
• Make a die with 3 red sides and 3 blue sides. Actually, instead of a die, I made another counter that is red on one side and blue on the other.
• Roll the die to see how many spaces to move. Then roll the color die (or flip the blue/red counter) to see if your koala moves up or down. If the counter lands on red move up. If it’s blue, move down.
• The first one to reach the top of the tree wins.

p.s. In the end, I just flipped a coin to see if koala moves up or down. This is probably a more hassle-free way.

I hope when you teach your children about the solar system, you know that Pluto is not the 9th planet anymore. If your children ask why (or if you are wondering why yourself), watch this video. It explains it very well.

Happy Learning.
