Thanks to Sonlight's training, my daughter Rachel is in the habit of integrating everything she learns into the 'big picture' of time and place. Before she can read anything, she looks at her timeline to understand where the story takes place in the context of history. She'll also find the story's location on the map. She loves to peruse The Timeline Book [RR120] from beginning to end. I feel she has a great grasp on the big picture. In her fourth year of Sonlight, Rachel (7) uses Google to locate where Little Pear (from Core B) took place.

"We are about to finish our 11th year using Sonlight," writes Tracy P. of Lakeside, CA. "We initially fell in love with Sonlight for the rich literature and global outlook. We have laughed, cried, and learned so much together. This year, the kids have spent all year looking forward to the dissection portion of Biology! They love learning about God's creation."
