    We are reading SOTW3 for history this year. I want to add Canadian historical fiction, biographies, etc. Has anyone else done this? I would LOVE to see your lists. I find it slow going..hard to find appropriate books. I have found Dear Canada and Our Canadian Girl series. Any thoughts on these series?

    We use L'Art de Lire for French by Norma Allen. http://www.nallenart.on.ca We use How Great Thou Art by Berry Stebbing for art. We have tried the I Can Do All Things book in this series. We have Drawing Textbook by Bruce McIntyre for pencil drawing. http://www.AVDP.com

    Curious...will you read them from the computer or print them into a "book" format? Will you read aloud or get child to read from computer screen? This is all new to me..a rather low-tech gal. :)

    Thanks for showing me how to get started on my own personalized philosophy of education. I describe our homeschool style as eclectic so I really liked the idea of listing what I use from each homeschool method..even if they are polar opposites (ie. classical and unschool).

    I wanted to put my "educational philosophy" in my binder for next year. But, I'm not quite sure what it is or how to state it!!

    We have used Pathway readers and workbooks, too. So far we have used level "preprimer" to grade 5. I have been very pleased with them.
