FREE Thanksgiving Unit Study


This one is a little book about Giving Thanks. For the younger crowd - we will have our big Thanksgiving give-a-way on the 16th when the next issue fo the Simple Zine goes out. Look forward to some early Christmas stuff as well. Gotta get ready, right?

I'm planning on a reindeer unit, The 12 Days of Christmas, Thanksgiving (of course - and this one will be interactive!), and A Christmas Carol. Perhaps, loosely based, not sure yet. Perhaps interactive as well. Perhaps I won't even do Christmas Carol...who the heck knows...I make this stuff up as I go along. A fly by my seat type of person.

OH YEAH! - I am SO excited about my Christmas gift to all my loyal homeschool friends - I can't say too much right now - but look for the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT in the November 16th issue of the Newsletter. It is BIG. BIG. BIG!

The Death of Factory Education?


The Shifting Paradigm of Factory Education Part I
The Process of Societal Conditioning


Mention education reform to a crowd and you get any number of responses. One might say schools are failing kids, another that the nation's youth has been dumbed down. Still more might equate education reform with standardized testing. But there is a growing group of parents (and would-be parents) who feel that the American factory education has run its course and education reform simply means a new system. A paradigm shift.

For most people the factory education is the only thing they've ever known. It used to be, back when I was little, that children were born and then they stayed home with their mothers.
Mothers used to stay home too. Some children, for various reasons, went to a pre-school. Often this was in relation to the church that the family attended. At the pre-school the children would learn to sing, and count, and recite the alphabet. They'd make macaroni necklaces and paint at the easel.

Teach Your kids Ecology - Not Hyper-Environmentalism!

I know how hard it is. I get it.

You want to be "for" the planet, but you refuse to sign on board with the radical "green" movement of the fanatical left wing of our country. That's why I wrote this little mini-course on Ecology.

Not environmentalism. Ecology. It covers what ecology is and what it is not. It gives them good information about biomes and the biosphere, conservation, nutrient cycles, and sustainability...but this is not pushing the radical "green" agenda. There is no Al Gore here. No Global Warming, and no Communist Green Jobs Czar telling people that the system must be "re-made".

I don't even know what system he is talking about, but what I am talking about is science. The science of ecology. If you want your kids to start learning the truth about our environment without the hype and lies, then try my $10 mini-course.

75 pages of truth is a good start.

August Simple Days

Hi Homeschoolers!

I am have been very busy over the summer trying to make sure all the curriculum I had planned got out and ready for you guys to take advantage of. So far, all is well. Middle School Physics hit the store last month and American History went on sale August 1st. For anyone who hasn't made a history choice yet - this is the easiest program you'll come across. Loaded with information, worksheets, and a parent guide included - it is a print and plop winner! Enough stuff for a whole year is included - 60 units, 2 x a week? Sound good? Eh? No stress - zero prep. That's what we strive to do.

There are two grade levels - the upper school level is the 60 units 2x a week and it covers the Vikings to the Constitution - IN DEPTH! One entire year devoted to the Founding. The little kids versionis 40 unit studies that covers the Vikings to just after the Civil War. Add to them - or not. They come with what you need to get the job done.

Speaking of print and plop - the August Simple Days are out today. I know that getting back to school can be stressful, especially when you are teaching little ones and big ones at the same time! So I went ahead and made all 4 of the freebies for elementary kids. Keep them learning, interested, and busy while you help your teens get the hang of their new science, math, or history program.

This month's freebies are:



  • All About Autumn

  • Ocean Basics

  • The Gingerbread Man

  • The Solar System

Well, there's plenty more where that came from! As you probably know - we sell the freebies in the Store for 99 cents after the last day of the month and if you've missed some Simple Days in the past you can find them there. At the end of June we decided to compile them into age appropriate bundles to save file space over at E-Junkie and now you can get those compilations here:

Well ladies (and gentlemen!)...I wish you all the best in your homeschool year! Whether you are just starting out or going on year 8 like me - there's no place like home!

    Nursery University

    Have you heard of this show? Nursery University is a documentary that follows several Manhattan families as they make their way through the pre-school acceptance process. The New York Times says (and who reads that paper anyway -but ...) "If you thrill to the sight of a preschool teacher bringing an investment banker to his knees, then "Nursery University" is for you."

    Do people actually thrill to that site? Apparently the NYT thinks they do. Sorta sick and twisted in my book, but that's just me...

    Now, I don't live in Manhattan, so all me crazy but I thought this stuff was an urban legend. You know, kinda like Sasquatch or going on a date and ending up packed in ice, one kidney short. But apparently I am sadly ill informed.

    It's real.

    The promo for the film states "Set in New York City, NURSERY UNIVERSITY is a feature documentary that reveals the oddly competitive, yet often humorous, world of nursery school admissions."

    Hmmm...

    I DO realize I'm biased due to the homeschool thing - but seriously, at what cost? The Price of Perfection seems to be the ability to shamelessly demand your child to perform on cue, to fork over thousands of dollars for a hand print painted in primary colors so as to make yourself appear willing to go above and beyond the tens of thousands of dollars required for tuition, and to feel dejected and small when your child doesn't get in.

    I obviously, do not live in that world. I spend, Oh, about $1000 a year on homeschool, some years less, some years more, and I put in more quality time with my kid in one morning than the Manhattanites I am supposed to be jealous of, do in a month.

    Yet, this "documentary" is clearly supposed to make me loathe them and envy them at the same time.

    Uh, no.

    I came away feeling sorry for them. Even the mom who packed her stuff up and left Manhattan for Boston and the one who said her son was fine in a co-op preschool...until he got into an exclusive one.

    I guess I just don't get it. I don't understand anyone anymore who thinks that sending kids off to strangers (especially those "Young 3's") to be taught BASIC - I'm talkin' BASIC - stuff all the while taking out a fourth mortgage on their home to pay for it.

    It is crazy.

    But anyway - it did make me feel happy that I'm not part of their world and it did make me feel like a great mom, so I guess I did get something out of my afternoon spent watching investment bankers being brought to their knees by pre-school teachers.

    Vocabulary Software is a Hit!


    I just got the free demo for this vocabulary builder software and I'm impressed. It has a lot of great features. I was browsing for a new vocabulary program for my Little Moe and came across this site. At first I thought it was just for test prep, but after using it I think this will work for us as far as vocabulary goes next year.

    I have used a lot of vocabulary curriculums, some better than others, and anything that gets the job done using the computer is always my first choice! Gotta keep those kiddos on the path to self directed learning, right! Anywho, you can go check it out and tell me what you think of this vocabulary software.

    5 Easy Steps for FUN Summer Reading!

    Want to cultivate the book lover in your child? Just follow these five easy steps and they'll be book worms in no time!

    1. Let your child choose the book.
    2. Download or rent the audiobook for the same title (IMPORTANT - DO NOT SKIP this step!)
    3. Let them make themselves comfortable.
    4. Start the audiobook and have them read along with their hard copy.
    5. If the chosen book has a movie version too, rent that and have them watch it!

    They'll never forget this summer reading program!

    We've been doing this all year and I tell ya, it has completely changed my son's point of view on books. He's read classics and fluff with the exact same amount of excitement! Trust me - this WORKS! Last week I brought home the new Percy Jackson book and he told me he thinks he "is a book lover!"

    Music to my ears....


    Sometimes kids just need a little push to see that reading is fun so naturally if they can read-along and then watch a movie their interest increases. Of course, the book must be interesting to begin with. :)

    Happy Mother's Day!

    Now, I'm not trying to say that non-homeschool mothers love their kids any less - BUT let's face it; homeschool moms are amazing! We go so far beyond what most mothers do with our children because we choose to spend every single day with them. We take on the almost overwhelming responsibility of their complete education. We stay up late in the wee hours of the morning devising lesson plans and hunting down the perfect curriculum. We lovingly push and prod them in ways a "teacher by profession" could never imagine.

    And - we do it all for free. Because we want to. Because we love them.

    I've had quite a few, uh - let's say "defensive" - emails and comments over the years from non-homeschooling mothers who tell me that we homeschoolers try and make them feel inadequate. I want to laugh when I hear this - I really do, because seriously they have us all wrong if they think we spend our time devising ways to make them look bad - but I don't. I typically listen and say that they are missing the point.

    But they aren't missing the point are they? They DO get it don't they? We ARE making a sacrifice that they won't or can't. Should we feel bad for that? Should they feel bad for that?

    I always want to ask "them" why this topic hits a nerve so bad? Why do they care that in their minds we are a little self-righteous? Should we have to minimize our sacrifices so that "they" can feel good? Should we downplay our level of commitment to our children and pretend that we are all the same so we can all be "winners"?

    I have to admit I do those things - I try to avoid the homeschool conversation with non-homeschoolers because the defenses go up almost immediately with the "Oh, I could NEVER homeschool my kids" comment. Perhaps they should mull over the words self-righteous a bit before uttering that phrase.

    But at any rate - we homeschool mothers belong to a pretty cool club! It isn't exclusive or expensive to join and it isn't dependent on your heritage, nationality, skin color, culture, religion, music preference, or ability to draw.

    You simple have to love them.

    Happy Mother's Day Homeschool Moms! You really ARE the best of the best!

    April Showers....


    Well, we all know what they bring! But if you would like to get your kids ready for learning about next month's flowers, there are a few great (and CHEAP) unit studies over at The Simple Homeschool that will get them all geared up. If you didn't get these fabulous units free in The Simple Zine, then why not sign up? Next month we'll take a look at what April Showers bring and have all sorts of fun with flowers and plants.

    New Anatomy & Physiology Course from Simple Schooling

    I have FINALLY finished Human Anatomy and Physiology I and I have no idea why this particular course took me so long. I was sick twice, so maybe that had something to do with it. Plus I have been very busy obsessing over my hatching eggs and incubators that I tend to get side tracked over at the BackyardChickens forum. And really if you think about it - that makes perfect sense. Watching duck and goose eggs develop and writing about anatomy and physiology - sorta all related in a convoluted way, right?

    Right! Anyway, this course is fabulous! It has over 400 pages! And for the same low price of $25 you get the 250 page student textbook/workbook, a 110 page parent guide, and a 50 page exam booklet. Can't beat that. Seriously, you can't. No one else offers such a comprehensive package for the price. As the title of this course indicates, it has both anatomy and physiology, emphasis on physiology. So if you've got a science oriented kid and think they could use another class in high school, give us a try. This course is written in the same conversational tone of all other Simple Schooling products which enables your teen to progress in a self directed manner. A complete one semester science course, A&P I includes:

    • Cell Biology Review

    • The Integumentary System

    • The Skeletal System

    • The Endocrine System

    • The Nervous System

    Second Semester A&P II will be out May 15 and will contain:

    • The Muscular System

    • The Cardiovascular System

    • The Respiratory System

    • The Digestive System

    • The Renal System

    • The Immune System

    • The Reproductive System
    So if you're looking for a complete year of upper level biology before college - Give Simple Schooling Anatomy and Physiology a try!

    You won't be disappointed!

    Sunday, March 22, 2009

    Happy Spring!

    I've done quite a bit to the website in the past few weeks. for instance - I added a whole bunch of pages about Cell Biology in The Student Help Center. Those pages will give you and your highschoolers a pretty thorough introduction to the organelles contained inside an animal cell. Enough to get you started, anyway.

    If you would like more information I just gave out a unit study to Ezine Subscribers called The Cell. That little gem has a ton of info and if you aren't a subscriber you can get it for only 99 cents in the store.

    Have fun!

    Who has time to blog when you have to draw the hair follicle?


    I'm so busy with this anatomy project but it is fun revisiting all my old college notes. I remember this class really stressed me out - the amount of information was overwhelming and all the tests were multiple choice. Laugh if you want - those questions were hard! Give me a short answer or essay question anyday.

    Example of exam questions: (these were our "practice questions" for the test)

    The QRS complex of the ECG appears as the:
    a. atria depolarize
    b. ventricles depolarize
    c. ventricles re-polarize
    d. atria repolarize
    e. b and d


    The mechanism by which glucose is absorbed in the small intestine involves:
    a. breakdown of carbons and hydrogens, followed by diffiusion
    b. diffusion with water through the tight junctions between epithelial cells
    c. entry together with sodium through a single transporter molecule
    d. diffusion across the plasma membrane of the epithelial cells
    e. endocytosis into absorptive cells

    Simple Schooling Highschool Anatomy (First Semester) will be available next week sometime and that is why I am sequestering myself in front of the computer and trying to stay away form Twitter!

    How Fun is your Homeschool?

    Are ya feeling the mid-year slump yet? Are your kids asking when summer vacation starts? Why not inject some fun back into your year by doing something new? I have a whole page over at The Simple Homeschool dedicated to Keeping Learning Fun.

    One of the best ideas I had this year was to introduce what I am calling "Upper-Grade Read-A-Loud" ...except I don't do the reading aloud and neither does Little Moe. We have started using audiobooks to supplement our reading program. I never in a million years imagined that such a simple thing could turn my kid on to reading like it was an X-Box.

    We do it like this: (It's real simple)
    1. Open up audiobook (you can download them from all sorts of places but I get them from iTunes)
    2. Open up book
    3. Push play
    4. Read along

    He LOVES this! In fact he came in to my office last week and asked if he could do reading. We've slammed through Tom Sawyer, The Call of the Wild, Where the Red Fern Grows, and right now we are doing Percy Jackson. He's already begged for Huck Finn, so ya know - I guess I'll have to let him read yet another classic before the year is up.

    So if your kids are a clammerin' for something different go check it out.

    Yes, that's right, over at The Simple Homeschool we give stuff away FREE. That's just how we roll over there...free is good. Especially in these hard economic times.

    Let's face it - we're all hurting like crazy right now but when we started to homeschool we made a commitment, and that commitment was to give our children the best education we could.

    The Simple Homeschool wants to help by offering 5 free units studies every month.

    Here's how it works:

    1. Just go to www.the-simple-homeschool.com on the first of every month and download the Free-For -All freebie.
    2. Sign up for the Simple Zine at the same time and around the middle of each month you will get four MORE freebies delivered to your in box.

    That's it. Simple right?

    Well, that's what we're all about - getting things streamlined. There is nothing worse than complications.

    See ya soon,
