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].

The daily, intricate interaction between student and growing plants has absolutely exploded Leah's interest! She even made her own scale to weigh and chart the plant throughout its life cycle.The detail and depth of exploration is incredible – more than could ever be possible in a large class setting. She went on to dig a little vegetable garden in our backyard to plant her sprouts. They've been growing all summer as the unscripted learning continues! Here, Leah (10) weighs water-soaked bean seeds before being planted to see how much they've absorbed. In her first year of Sonlight study, she is using Core B+C and Science D.

Joy H of Lehigh Acres, FL writes: "We started Sonlight after trying a workbook type curriculum that was leaving us all frustrated. Sonlight's Readers and Read-Alouds capture the Graham's attention despite his ADHD diagnosis. When prompted to write a paragraph about a favorite character or book, he has a difficult time choosing just one!" Here, Graham (9) and his dad enjoy a funny poem from Cornstalks in Sonlight C. Now that he likes his homeschool, Graham particularly looks forward to this book every week.
