I'm so thankful for Sonlight's Language Arts guidance. We kept plugging away and I took faith in the tips and pointers (and Ruth Beechick's book). I won't forget the week everything seemed to brighten and I wasn't 'making' Zeke read anymore. He now says reading is his favorite! Here, Zeke (7, Core C) and Amelia (4, Pre-Kindergarten Multi-Subject) think little sister Isabella's hair looks like Ping from Little Pear [Core B].
"We keep choosing Sonlight because reading together has fostered a culture of learning in our family," writes Mary H of Harrisonburg, VA. "We are learning to talk about ideas and apply the wisdom we learn from our books to the whole of our lives as a family. These books have become part of our family conversation and our family culture. I've learned as much as my children have, maybe more.
"Books like Sticks Across the Chimney (HBL C) create images in the minds of my children that serve as a sticking point for the facts of history."
Here, Anna (6), Sarah (8), and Silas (2), enjoy each other's company as they read books from HBL C.
In the beginning, I pulled from different places to teach and always felt like I was missing something. Sonlight has everything laid out, so I can spend more time enjoying the learning process with my girls instead of stressing that they're not getting the whole story. We especially love the Read-Alouds, the highlight of our day. It's not uncommon for me to start reading while they lounge about, before they're drawn in and fully focused on the story, asking questions and discussing. 'I wonder what will happen to Charlotte?', my youngest pondered as we read Charlotte's Web [from Core B]. I'm so glad we found you! Emily (8) and Katie (6) are studying Core B in their second year of Sonlight.
