Free Civil Rights Packet: Timeline of Events Leading to the Civil Rights Movement

I created a photo timeline of events to help my kids review (and/or understand) the events leading to the Civil...

Elementary, Middle School, High School Tips

Welcome!  I’m Liesl, the homeschool Mom of three wonderful kids. We have homeschooled right from the start and we decided to homeschool all the way through high school. This was a discussion we had regularly along the way; at times the kids considered going to public schools but the benefits (for our family) seemed to outweigh the public school option (especially with the Pandemic and so forth).  A little side...
