Like a lot of homeschool families, we have tried quite a few math programs trying to find the “just right” fit. For the past few years, I’ve used Rod and Staff Math for my elementary-age students, and it has been a great curriculum match for my girls. I like many aspects of Rod and Staff …

I appreciate the different perspectives and feel like that makes me a better homeschool teacher. …
In Our Homeschool is (mostly) a weekly series here at Mama’s Learning Corner. I’ll write about what we’re learning, helpful homeschool ideas, field trips, or books we’re reading. I hope you enjoy! After we complete our morning Bible time together, my children and I get busy with our Latin studies. That looks different for each …
Are you studying the life of Saint Patrick with your children this year? If so, make sure you download these Saint Patrick Worksheets! Saint Patrick was a missionary to the people of Ireland, leaving a rich legacy. It’s fascinating to learn about St. Patrick teaching the Trinity using a shamrock as an object lesson! I’ve …
One of the many joys of having multiple children is the opportunity to read books over and over. Wild About Books is one of those delightful reads that never grows old. My oldest boy – now 15 – received this book from my parents when he was 3 years old. If I had to estimate, …
It has been quite awhile since I published a set of Bible coloring pages – almost a year in fact! These types of purposeful coloring pages are a great fit if you are a Sunday School teacher, work in a Christian classroom, or want to use these pages in your own homeschool. They clearly are …
