It’s a means of living life together, cultivating great thinkers, compassionate citizens, bold leaders, and laborers for the harvest. But it takes resourcefulness and creativity, encouragement and inspiration. And that’s exactly what the-homeschooling-experience.com wants to offer your home school.

From curriculum information and hands-on ideas for every subject to realistic ways to reclaim your dining room table in time for a healthy, well-balanced meal that didn’t take Julia Childs to prepare, the-homeschooling-experience.com wants to be the Swiss-Army knife in your homeschooling survival pack.

As we embark on 2011, we’ll spend the first half of the New Year filling in the pages of the site. Scroll down the navigation bar, and you’ll see what we have a lot planned for you. The site is divided into eight basic sections:

• Curriculum – Under this category you’ll find ideas, reviews, lesson plans, unit studies and links to resources for a wide range of curriculum needs.

• Homeschool Methods – In this section we’ll do our best to sort through the various homeschool methods and philosophies, helping you clearly understand each and choose the best for your family.

• Leadership Training – Homeschool families are raising strong moral people, but are they raising strong, moral leaders? Be inspired to train up people of influence and laborers for the harvest

• Record Keeping & Organization – Be a good steward of your job as a homeschool parent. Helpful tips for keeping excellent homeschool records, managing paper, decluttering, and building and maintaining an organized homeschool.

• High School – This is the time to launch your student into a powerful adulthood. Help them find their calling, prepare for higher education, ministry, business, and marriage. Help them find internships, apprenticeships, earn college credits and train to be independent people of strong character.

• Middle School – Prepare your student for high school. Give them a strong worldview foundation and polish their character. Bless them with a healthy perspective on friendships.

• Elementary School – Focus on building strong readers and early writing and math skills. Carry on obedience training that began in their earliest years, and begin to instill solid manners as you focus on the profound differences in raising boys and girls.

• Babies and Pre-K – Homeschooling begins at birth. Immerse your little ones in language and sensory experiences. Develop their gross and fine motor skills, expose them to the arts and begin obedience training.

Check back often; new pages will up every week, and in the meantime, go ahead and send us your questions. We’ll do our best to answer them as soon as possible.
