Agnes Penney, the popular author of Your Labor of Love and Your Vocation of Love, is here to help you along the way. Your School of Love is not a homeschooling curriculum, or a how-to guide, but a spiritual companion that will help you and your children get the most out of homeschooling. Your School of Love is packed with short chapters, perfect for the always-busy homeschooling parent, offering tips and advice on a variety of topics, including: - Homeschooling girls, boys, large families, young children, and teenagers - How to keep up with Homeschooling during pregnancy or with a new baby in the house - How to involve fathrs - How to encourage and balance your children's social lives - How to Balance Confidence and Humility while teaching your children - Making Homeschooling a prayerful endeavor - How to deal with the emotional struggles of homeschooling - And so much more (like how to avoid burnout, how to foster vocations, how to teach a child to read and write) Your School of Love is lovingly written by a homeschooling mother, and will be your constant companion throughout your homeschooling years, both as a guide, a spiritual reference, and a helpful friend who knows what it's like to deal with the struggles of homeschooling, and also how to embrace the great joys. |
