Homeschool Library Builder - TOS Review

A homeschooler? You must love books! . . . You must need books! ... At our house we do. We live in an apartment and the space is lacking to put up all the books we have between myself, the boys and Dad, as a pastor. I know books can be costly though, and that's why I actually do not buy many books for our homeshool, we just can't afford it. I am blessed to be able to borrow books from 2 public libraries, and that helps a lot.

That says,  I recently was asked to review an other kind of library. If you have never heard about it, it deserves for you to go and check it out. It is called The Homeschool Library Builder, and this is exactly what it is: a homeschool library, except it is online. It was created to help homeschoolers build their libraries at a low cost.

Put together by homeschool moms who have a love for good literature, the site is packed-full  with good books, going from classic fictions to well-loved and recommended non fictions.

You can search the site by fiction or non-fiction, age, activity books, science, seasonal, storybooks and more.

An added bonus to this library is that it tries to provide books you may encounter in curricula such as Tapestry of Grace, Sonlight, Beautiful Feet, Ambleside, Heart of Dakota, and Sonlight.

Every month the Homeschool Library Builder offers a very special deal. For the month of May everything is 15% off.

On top of their monthly deals, if you are  a member (totally free membership), every purchase gets you book points that can count towards free books. Who does not like free books? You also get book points for promoting the library on your blog, or for referrals.

So go on over and check this Homeschool Library out!

Reformation Day Giveaway

We are approaching October 31, which is an important date for all protestants. This date commemorates Martin Luther’s nailing of his ninety-five theses to a church door on October 31, 1517 in Wittenburg, Germany, which in turn provoked a debate that resulted in what we now call the Protestant Reformation. As the “Father of the Reformation”, Martin Luther is a vital figure in Church History. His sacrifice and willingness to wage battle against the spiritual, religious, and political powers of his medieval world allowed Christians throughout time to embrace the following truths: salvation by grace alone , through faith alone,  and in Christ alone, along with the supremacy of Scripture, referred to as  Scripture alone, and all of it for God's Glory Alone. These being commonly called the Five Solas of the Reformation.  Danika Cooley, author and creator of the Bible curriculum Bible Road Trip ,  has recently written a book for young people recounting Luther's story:   When

Visual Learning Systems - TOS Review

I have to admit I am in love with our first review product from the 2015 crew year. We received a full year subscription to Visual Learning Systems 's Digital Online Science Program Elementary edition and S econdary edition . Science has always been one those subjects I am having all sort of trouble deciding what to use and never being fully satisfied with what we are doing. Well my search is over. I am really hoping to stick with this one. What is Visual Learning Systems? Visual Learning Systems is an online science publisher that provides quality science educational material through videos. They offer Unit Studies for K-12 in DVD or digital format, as well as a Digital Online Subscription for both Primary/Elementary  (K-5) and Middle/High School  (6-12).
