A Review of Latin For Children
My children both asked repeatedly if we could learn another language. Maybe it's because of their world-traveling uncle...or that they want to be able to exchange secret messages in public. Either way I wanted to capitalize on their desire. We chose Latin, and my research into products to help me teach a language that I myself didn't know led me to Classical Academic Press. Classical … [Read more...] about A Review of Latin For Children

The Children’s Illustrated Bible :: Review
I am not usually a big fan of children's Bibles, we prefer to read straight from the scriptures in our home. However, this particular Children's Bible has some great features and is great to read or look at alongside your reading from the Scriptures. All the favorite Bible stories are in this book. The text well written, easy for children to understand without sliding into inanity - which can … [Read more...] about The Children’s Illustrated Bible :: Review

Learning Latin With Song School Latin 2
How I wish we had started learning Latin with Classical Academic Press materials three years ago! When we started homeschooling I had grand plans of teaching my children Latin, but after a lackluster attempt at Latin roots I put my idea on the back burner. Both my children continued asking to please learn a foreign language. Research continued to lead me to Latin and the materials available … [Read more...] about Learning Latin With Song School Latin 2
Primary Language Lessons Review
Last year I started using Primary Language Lessons with my son. Primary Language Lessons is a Charlotte Mason style English book. It is truly a joy to use, true to Charlotte Mason style. The lessons are short but effective, conversational in style, and thorough in content. From the back cover: Imaginative lessons and short, jargon free instructions for teachers make it a pleasure for … [Read more...] about Primary Language Lessons Review
