Sonlight lessons are all planned out for me and they include all kinds of fun activities. This was our first year homeschooling. I've been terribly busy and sleep-deprived with a new baby and three young children. Using Sonlight's Science A program was the best decision I could have made. Although the program is laid out in a weekly schedule, I've found it easy to adjust according to our needs. Some weeks we do a bit each day. Other times we have a 'Science Day' and do a week's worth of lessons and activities all at once. I simply pick up where we left off. Here, Gideon (2), Miriam (5) and Tabitha (6) make "hot lava" while studying volcanoes.

After a stressful year, I knew I needed a curriculum I could count on – one that would literally tell me what to do. I sure found it with Sonlight! I tried the eclectic route the year before and it was mayhem. With Sonlight, each day tells me what and how much to do, and it's simple to follow. The incredible books brought the love of learning to all of us and my children thrived. Sonlight made me a confident homeschooler. On their first Box Day, Liliana 7 and Talia 4 (Core B) are engrossed in books and delighted to learn they'll be reading every one!

Sonlight's instructor guide's give us the extra time to relax and read together.   I'm glad I chose sonlight for my 3rd grader's first year.  This year I will supplement it with another grammar  program.  And will use a different science & math for my 4th grader.  But Will continue to use Sonlights literature & history.  However, I was not happy with the Sonlight K readers & phonics program.  I found it more appropriate for a preschool program than Kindergarten.  My son learned the alphabet sounds but the program lacked strenght in teaching words & blends.  Thanks Sonlight for all your amazing curriculum!
