"When I opened my first box of Sonlight, there was a slight moment of panic ... until I opened the Instructor's Guide," writes Lorelei K of The Woodlands, TX. "The IG laid out our first day of homeschool. Neatly outlined and with helpful suggestions along the way, the IG sat beside me like an old friend helping me on my journey. Two years and thousands of memories later, we love Sonlight!" Here, Christopher (9, Sonlight C) eagerly reads ahead in McBroom's Wonderful One-Acre Farm.

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!

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.
