I cannot say enough good about the US Constitution and Government course. In fact, it may just be my *favorite* course we’ve ever done from The Good and the Beautiful. I truly loved it. It was engaging for Jacob (and me!), the depth of information was excellent, AND, most importantly, it left me with so …
{REVIEW} The Good and the Beautiful Language Arts Level 5
It shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that I am still in catch up mode when it comes to documenting our schoolhouse happenings. But in May, Jacob finished the Level 5 Language Arts course from The Good and the Beautiful. He loved it and I would definitely recommend it! So here is all the …

{REVIEW} The Good and the Beautiful Science: Reptiles, Amphibians, and Fish
This last spring, we completed the REPTILES, AMPHIBIANS, AND FISH science unit from The Good and the Beautiful. This was a new unit for each of us and we really loved it! I will say, when it comes to the animal kingdom, this is probably at the bottom of my interest level – but all …
Winter 2023 Schoolhouse
Thoughts this Winter Was it just me or did this winter FLY by?! I think it probably was just me. I know this winter was brutal for a lot of people weather wise – but it was pretty good to us academically! I felt like we finally got into our groove after months and months …

Letters were just not clicking for him – BUT I have spent a lot of time researching preschool curriculums …
Autumn 2022 Schoolhouse
Thoughts this Autumn It has been almost a year since I have done a schoolhouse review and I am, honestly, really bummed about it. 2022 has been filled with so many blessings. And I hope to write more on that when I get to our New Year’s post. But one thing that has been a …
{REVIEW} The Good and the Beautiful Science: Paleontology
This last summer, The Good and the Beautiful changed their science curriculum. We have been using The Good and the Beautiful for our science curriculum for the last five years – and we LOVE it – so I was very unsure about the change. It was one of those situations where “if it’s not broke …
{REVIEW} The Good and the Beautiful Science: Birds
A new science unit for us was BIRDS from The Good and the Beautiful. I am not a bird person. I’ve never really be interested in birds or wanted to learn more about them. This unit made me a bird LOVER! They are fascinating. My kids have also become passionate bird lovers and want to …
{REVIEW} The Good and the Beautiful Science: Geology
All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful, The Lord God made them all. Each little flower that opens, Each little bird that sings, He made their glowing colours, He made their tiny wings. The purple-headed mountain, The river running by, The sunset and the morning, That brightens …
