Sonlight was the turning point for our son, a reluctant reader, to learn to enjoy reading, and the jumping-off point for our daughter, a voracious reader. For us it's the best of both worlds for two very different learners. After homeschooling for three years we took a year off and went to a traditional school. Our daughter asked if we could get the 'big box of books' anyway. We lasted one year and went back to Sonlight. The kids feel like they're really learning again. In the family's third Sonlight year, Paco the dog (9) happily hangs out with Alex (12) and Emma (11), who are using Core D+E.
"I'm heading off to college for the first time and can't help but feel a little jealous of my siblings, because they'll be doing Sonlight again this year," writes Kailey H of Marshfield, WI. "My family has loved learning so much since we started using Sonlight. History became my favorite subject, and I consumed all the books in each Core. I'm grateful for the in-depth Student Guides that forced me to think critically and caused me to formulate my own values. I feel well-prepared, and the thought of writing a college-level essay doesn't frighten me. I know I have the tools to be successful. Pictured are siblings Luke (15, Core 200), Abigail (13, Core H), Hope (10, Core G), and Mark (8, Core D).
"Due to health problems, my husband became a stay-at-home dad. Sonlight Instructor's Guides provided a detailed schedule, with questions, answers and resources for him to follow," writes Floriane S of Jacksonville, FL. "While reading about WWII, he enjoyed sharing family stories with our boys: how Grandma had to flee from the Russians in the middle of the night at age 5; how Great-Grandpa survived the German army and later served as a guard at the Nuremberg Trials. It has been a lot of heart work, and Sonlight has created some treasured male-bonding memories. Already planning our next year, Dad has added an extra section on how to be a man of God." Now sharing Core E, Samuel (10) and David (9) have been studying with Sonlight since the age of 3.
