It is what it is and we just […]

Read Alouds

Reading aloud has been the cornerstone of our homeschool from the beginning.  Reading to my children has been a natural extension of my own love of reading.  For a long time we spent the bulk of our time reading picture books, if you’ve been a reader of our blog for long you know that I […]
