Discipling Young Men

Although the process of Raising Real Men is not always “fun”, reading the book was a delight. As a mother of 4 sons (and 6 daughters), I was encouraged as over and over I caught myself saying, Yes!, to both the description of the behavior and wiring of boys and the proper biblical response and direction they need.  In our Resources & Recommendations Online Catalog on our Beyond Babies page. ~ Me

A Practical Guide to Equipping the Hearts and Minds of Boys without Losing or Breaking Your Own
If this is God’s chosen gift to us, then why does it seem so hard? How can we prepare these boys to serve God when we can barely make it through the day? Isn’t there a better way?

The answer is yes.

“Just what the doctor ordered…” – Parenting columnist John Rosemond, author of Parenting by the Book

It’s About Time ~ Freedom & Simplicity™ Timelines

 

HisStory is about Time. It’s about God working throughout time, to reveal His plan. Time shapes each event on earth into what it is. Being able to place events, ideas and lives into their correct time brings much understanding to His (God’s) Story. A timeline is a tool that helps us place those happenings.

In addition to great reasons for utilizing a timeline in your studies, there are many types of timelines, and ways you can design a timeline. In this Guidebook, I share both with you. But most of all I share with you how we have come to Freedom & Simplicity™ with Timelines. There are so many choices out there (and I show you several.) But what can be done in Simplicity, and what is going to bring the Freedom of understanding into our studies? That is the main question we answer in this Freedom & Simplicity™ Learning Guide. What tools are going to be the most effective and easiest to use for the task at hand, understanding the flow of all of HisStory? And how to we make them and use them?

In It’s About Time, we look at 13 different types of timelines, and directions for making and using them, and provide you with several options for timeline figures—many of them free!

This Freedom & Simplicity™ guide covers:

  • The Purpose and Framework of Timelines
  • The Pictorial Framework Timeline
  • Timeline Figures
  • The Timeline in a Book
  • Journal (Notebook) Timeline Pages
  • Timeline on a Board
  • Timeline in a Box
  • Other Timeline Formats
  • Beyond the Timeline – the P.I.P.E. Book of Remembrance Journal

 

The SEVEN winners of this drawing will receive It’s About Time ~ Freedom & Simplicity™ Timelines. You can enter this drawing several ways. Increase your chances of winning by doing all of them! Each must be a separate comment to this post (below.)

Exercise

Many times the only thing people dislike more than exercises their bodies is exercising their brains. It’s hard work. But the more you do it the easier it becomes. And the Christian Logic books from Trivium Pursuit help make it painless – perhaps even fun. ~ Me  

The Fallacy Detective

What is a fallacy? A fallacy is an error in logic – a place where someone has made a mistake in his thinking.

These are fallacies:

“A cloud is 90% water. A watermelon is 90% water. Therefore, since a plane can fly through a cloud, a plane can fly through a watermelon.”

“This new book, The Fallacy Detective, must do a good job teaching logic. It has been on the bestseller list for months.”

We wrote this book to meet the needs of Christian parents who want a do-able text for introducing logic and critical thinking to their children.

  • Fun to use – not dry like a math textbook.
  • Self-teaching – not intimidating, starts students with skills they can use right away.
  • Each lesson has exercises for students, with an answer key at the back.
  • Covers logical fallacies and propaganda techniques. We divided the most common fallacies and propaganda techniques into thirty-eight lessons. We explain how you can spot fallacies, and we give exercises to stretch your abilities for detecting fallacies.
  • Geared for ages twelve and older – we suggest using The Fallacy Detective before advancing onto more difficult logic programs.
  • Includes The Fallacy Detective Game, giving you and your friends an entertaining way to spot and make up your own examples of fallacies.
  • Christian view of logic. Many critical thinking texts introduce political correctness. This book does not.
  • Can be used before or after The Thinking Toolbox
  • Cartoons to illustrate the logical fallacies discussed, including Peanuts, Dilbert, Calvin and Hobbes, and several original cartoons

This book is for fallacy detectives. We’ve designed this book to be a handy-dandy text for learning to spot the errors in thinking that you meet everyday on the street, in the newspaper, or on television – or errors you make yourself.

The Heavens Declare

I haven’t gotten to review this book yet, but have enjoyed getting to know the author through publishing lists we’re on together and Facebook. Being Biblically based (and published by Apologia) and CM methods it should be a good fit for those using L.E.D. In our Resource & Recommendations Online Catalog on our Creation: Design-Space page  ~ Me 

 

 Exploring Creation with Astronomy
AND the NEW – Astronomy Junior Notebooking Journal

 

A journey through space that you’ll never forget. Your child will learn more about space than other children their age, and will be able to hold their own in conversations with knowledgeable adults.

One of my favorite things about this book is the conversational style in which it is written. It reads more like a mutual discussion about astronomy, rather than a science textbook. Very in-depth information is conveyed, but with words and expressions to which a child can relate. This doesn’t mean it is dumbed down, for the course itself has enough information to qualify for a high school astronomy course.

Another thing I love about Exploring Creation with Astronomy is that each child essentially makes his own astronomy book utilizing notebooking activities and assignments. These assignments are designed to replace workbooks, which do not draw from the child’s heart and mind what was learned. Creating a notebook page truly draws the most out of the child. There is a saying, “Tell me, and I’ll forget. Show me, and I may not remember. Involve me, and I’ll understand.” Notebooking is the act of involving the child in his learning.

Tonight, Me & My House ministries (that’s us) is giving a  Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting Combo , a $20 value, to one blessed attender of the Lifestyle Education through Discipleship™ Facebook Party

Here’s the L.E.D. resource one blessed attender is going to win!
Keep reading for instructions to enter the drawing.

 

Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting Combo
Includes: Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting,
Bonus Handwriting Journal Pages,
and Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting ~ Practice Pages.

 

A Biblical way to teach Handwriting? Really? Really! God and His Word are the Source of All we learn – even Handwriting. Not only does this book give complete instruction for learning Handwriting, both Manuscript and Cursive, it also teaches you the Biblical foundations for Handwriting.

Learning and Teaching Handwriting Biblically doesn’t mean you just use Scriptures for your Copywork. This L.E.D. Freedom & Simplicity™ Guide will help you find the Biblical foundation, principles and rudiments of Handwriting and even lead you through the application with instruction in both Manuscript and Cursive. Find Freedom & Simplicity™ in why we teach it, what we teach, and how we teach it!

From the introduction:“Who would have ever thought that there is a principled way to teach Handwriting? Not I. Oh, I know that everything comes from God, and should be taught based upon this, but I never thought I would delve into what principled teaching of Handwriting looks like. Perhaps you haven’t either. Then this study is for you. This guide does not cover the broader details relating to writing and English in general, only as applied to Handwriting.”

The ONLY book you need to teach ALL ages – includes the foundations of Handwriting, and instruction in Manuscript and Cursive.

Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting ~ Practice Pages

Copywork pertaining to our current studies is our general method of practicing handwriting, but sometimes extra, focused practice is needed for some children. These Practice Pages fill that need. Plenty of practice, (along with reminders to observe the Rudiments,) in 2 sizes of manuscript and 1 of cursive, for the alphabet and sentences using every letter of the alphabet. Suggestions for use for a full year for all your students using Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting, or any other italic handwriting program.

This is not meant to be a handwriting “curriculum” but rather fun, extra, basic practice, for those that have already learned letter formation and just need a little extra work on the Rudiments. Use it alongside Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting (or other italic program) and Copywork, as needed. The introduction gives you suggestions for use.

Help for Child Training

The responsibility to train the little ones God has entrusted into our care is a weighty one. Doing it for His glory, with Grace & Truth, is humanly impossible. But thankfully He is with us to help us, and He’s given us wisdom in His Word for us to follow. It seems much of that parenting wisdom held by previous generations has been lost. I am thankful for teachers like Dennis who seek to help us return to those old paths. I love the Grace & Truth bookstore (and all the books I’ve gotten from them) and this CD set sounds awesome. Wish I could win it. 🙂 ~ Me

 

 Training Children with Grace and Truth

6-CD album by Dennis Gundersen, Senior Pastor of Grace Bible Church, Tulsa and founder of Grace & Truth Books. Includes our most popular seminars presented at many churches, retreats, and home education conventions, covering:
~ Character training
~ Building the conscience
~ Right views of “self”
~ Moral training by fathers
~ Courtship and dating contrasted
~ The joyful fruit of righteous training

Importance of a Biblical Perspective in Life & Learning

I love this book. You wouldn’t believe how much highlighting my copy has! It’s a good introduction to a Biblical worldview in education, throughout all the subjects. Shows the “other views” also. In our Resources & Recommendations Online Catalog on our Home Ed Why and How page . ~ Me

 

 Homeschooling for a Biblical Worldview

 

Every subject area teaches us something about the nature and character of God. In homeschooling, we must begin with proper Biblical presuppositions which will enable us to make sense of the world around us. As we piece together the mysteries of God’s law and creation, we will discover more and more about the God Who is. Seeing the world through God’s eyes is the essence of a Biblical worldview. Learn how to think Biblically, and transmit a Biblical worldview to your children.

Chapters include “Keeping an Eternal Perspective,” “The Importance of Reason,” “Multiculturalism,” and more.
