The Homeschool Minute newsletter

Posted in Homeschooling

I want to share with you all an awesome resource for homeschool moms - The Homeschool Minute.  It is a weekly newsletter put out by The Old Schoolhouse Magazine folks and every issue is jam packed with great information and encouragement.  The articles that are included are short - which I like - because I tend to skip and email newsletter if it is too long.  They usually have a contest and a homeschool freebies section.  Each newsletter is centered around a theme with articles and links reinforcing the theme.
I have subscribed to a lot of email newsletters, but in my opinion, this is one of the best.  Short and sweet - just the way I like it!

Happy Weblink Wednesday! Thanks for participating today. My hand is real sore after my crazy trouble with it on Monday, so I'm taking my time and copy/paste all the links provided today and looking at them a little later. In fact, I copied/pasted this greeting to those who have participated in Weblink Wednesday today. Sorry about that. Anyway, I am always appreciative of new links shared - thank you! I will add them to Weblinkeducation.com this coming week... THanks for mentioning OSH - I love the homeschool minute.

Great link! Congrats on the adoption finallization!!!! I love it when a child truly gets his forever family. ( I was in 13 foster homes and never adopted so it is very near and dear to my heart)

We are a homeschooling family raising 4 boys in Virginia. This blog is mostly about anything relevant to raising boys or homeschooling in general - but every once in a while I can't help but add some nonsense from our daily life.

Quotes from the Boys

Josh: "Would you rather die or eat pizza for a year?" Um, let me think about that one!


Joseph: "Once I burped, sneezed, coughed, hiccupped, and farted all at the same time!" Now, only a boy could think that one up and think it is cool!
