Homeschooling gives families the freedom to tailor education to fit their child’s needs. At Homeschool of 1, we share practical advice, real curriculum reviews, and day-to-day learning tips that have worked in our own home. Whether you’re just getting started or you’re deep into your homeschool journey, you’ll find ideas and encouragement here to support your family’s path.
Summer is coming and now is the perfect time to start planning out a few activities for the kids. I have the solution (well part of the solution!) for kids aged 12 and above. Carry on reading for our KiwiCo Eureka crate review and see why it is the answer. Think of the KiwiCo crate…
Despite being year-round homeschoolers, we tend to spend our summer homeschool months deciding on the next grade’s curriculum. The best way we have found to do this is to spend the summer having as many free trials as we can before we settle on our actual homeschool curriculum for the next year. This is exactly…
We absolutely love history in our homeschool. But bringing it to life can be hard. This history timeline for kids has been the one thing previously missing in our history studies. It is hard for kids to understand the concept of time, and in our house, it is still pretty much based on days to…
We love math in our homeschool, it just comes naturally. Despite just finishing 6th grade we have jumped straight into Algebra. I mean why wait? Carry on reading for our Teaching Textbooks review, and why we have chosen TT for our high school math curriculum. Unless you have been hiding under a giant rock (to…
We have finally found the best homeschool literature curriculum! We have struggled over the years to find something that actually works for us, but I can happily inform you we have found it. Learning Language Arts Through Literature is one of the best home school programs. I mean the name is in the title. How…
After not focussing on handwriting in our homeschool for the last few years I needed to find the best homeschool cursive curriculum. The main reason I chose to teach cursive handwriting was solely the fact that it is quicker to write. Of course, it looks nice but my main reason was to help my son…
We absolutely love history in our homeschool, and it is a close second behind our favorite subject math. Over the years we have studied the Middle Ages, and we have studied lots of English history, but now is the time for us to focus on American history. Carry on reading for our Sonlight review. We…
Mr D Math has only gone and written a book! I don’t hide the fact that we love Mr. D in our homeschool. So when I saw Teach by Dennis Dinoia on Amazon I had to grab a copy. We actually attended a homeschool convention last year and were lucky enough to attend one of…
We have taken multiple financial literacy courses over the last 2 years, which have all been excellent. So why was I on the hunt for a new financial literacy for teens course? The other courses were more theoretical, which I wanted, but Beyond Personal Finance talks about what to expect for the next 20 years….
I absolutely LOVE homeschooling! Do you know the main reason? We can be led by our child’s dreams and aspirations. We don’t need to do anything in order, and we can pick and choose the homeschool curriculum that works for us. Coding is a great example of this. We have been coding in our homeschool…
As we hit middle school this year I have been wanting to find the best homeschool typing curriculum. Typesy is absolutely what we were looking for. Typing, luckily for us, as handwriting is not my son’s superpower, is an absolute necessity in today’s society. So finding an actual homeschool typing program was equally important. When…
History is one of our favorite subjects in our homeschool, and we’ve enhanced our experience by incorporating History Odyssey from Pandia Press, as you’ll discover in this History Odyssey review. We now love it even more. Before I go on, I just want to let you know that History Odyssey is one of the best…
We have been huge fans of subscription boxes for years now. I have been on the lookout recently for the best stem subscription boxes when I came across OysterKit. OysterKit has created two stem subscription boxes for kids aged 3-9+ called the Professions box. Hands-on projects that introduce kids to different career paths. The Professions…
Check out why we think Great Bend Center for Music offers the best online music lessons. We only started adding music to our homeschool a couple of years ago, and it was the best thing we did. One of the reasons we delayed it was that we already had lots of things going on, with…
I am not exaggerating, not even a little when I tell you Mr. D Math is our NUMBER 1 homeschool resource. We have just taken the Mr D ASL 1 self paced course and we loved it. Carry on reading for our Mr. D ASL review. To meet the high school requirement we needed to…
