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.

Our son has special needs – this was our determining factor in starting the Sonlight program. At the begining, I wasn't confident enough to stray from your program, so I stuck to it, frame by frame. As the year progressed, I began to feel more confident, understanding my boys' learning strengths and weaknesses. Your program gave me that! Last summer, as I began to order our curriculum, your web site made it so easy for me. I'm going to add more subjects. I wish I could convey how much Sonlight has blessed our family. Josiah (9) and Eli (8) are studying Core B+C.

I'm so thankful the Lord led us to Sonlight, where so much of the work is done for me. When I found out we were expecting our fourth child, I knew I would need a curriculm to help lighten the load. If it wasn't for Sonlight, homeschooling would feel like an overwhelming, impossible task. We love the material and the worldview so much. In their third Sonlight year, Ruby Mae (2), Dad, Aaron (3, P4/5 Multi-Subject) and Isaac (6, Core C) enjoy some world history with engaging illustrations.
