In the busyness of being a pastor's family, the challenge of schooling five children has been wonderfully simplified by Sonlight's well-organized Instructor's Guides and the gripping literature. After 10 years of homeschooling trial-and-error, our family has found a home. Having tried so many other options, I recognize the incredible quality and value of the Sonlight curriculum. I love the camaraderie the children have, and the atmosphere in our home has become quite peaceful. A flame has been kindled for learning that we haven't experienced before. I wish we had discovered Sonlight sooner! Here, Luke (14) and Mark (7) share a shady spot and a story. Now in their second Sonlight year, the H family studies Cores B, E, G and 300.
Thank you, Sonlight, for providing a rich and gentle introduction to learning through literature. Sonlight allowed me to teach my older daughters while meeting my new baby's needs with tender flexibility. That same flexibility led us to read on blankets in the yard, curled up by the fire with cups of cocoa or even in our red wagon. Reading together has provided so many cozy moments for our growing family, stirred our imaginations, shaped our character and invited us into a culture of shared stories we'll never forget. Elise (7) and Sadie (5) are studying Core B, as Raina (3) and Hope (11 mos.) come along for the ride on the first-year Sonlight adventure.
One of the things I love most about Sonlight has been how it has encouraged family learning. What could be more wonderful than watching big sisters and brothers reading and teaching the younger ones? When I'm reading from one of the many fabulous Sonlight books, it's magnetic. I may start reading to one child, but pretty soon, the room is quiet and several are listening and snuggling up on the couch! I just can't say enough about how the incredible literature has enhanced our togetherness. We've been using Sonlight for 13 wonderful years and are going to have our first graduate this year! Our youngest is just beginning her Sonlight adventure. Angelina (5) and Isabella (11) are using Cores A and H.
