Homeschool Curriculum
Cozy English Video Courses on DVD
http://www.splashesfromtheriver.com
Multisensory
lessons on grammar, punctuation and essay writing by
Marie Rackham are carefully designed to target all
learning
styles. The student hears
the instructor give the lesson at the same time they
see
the rules appear in colorful print on the screen. After the
concepts are introduced through both visual and auditory
presentation on the DVD, they are reinforced tactilely through the written exercises in the workbook. In
addition, the
classical piano music playing softly in the background is
a selection of compositions that have been performed,
arranged, edited, and recorded specifically to facilitate learning.

they move on to the next concept which builds on the
previous concept.

Homeschool Organizations

http://www.nhen.org/
The National Home Education Network exists to encourage and facilitate
the vital grassroots work of state and local homeschooling
organizations and individuals by providing information, fostering
networking and promoting public relations on a national level. NHEN does not attempt to dictate to homeschoolers what they
should say or do and does not take "sides" when disagreements arise
among homeschoolers themselves, but, instead, provides information on
all sides.
