America's Freedom -
Michael Farris
It
would give me great encouragement if every parent in America would read
aloud to his or her children the book “Why America is Free,” published
by the Mount Vernon Ladies Association. Many today have confused ideas
about our freedom, and how we became a free people. This book could help
straighten out the political confusion of our times. GO>

What Constitutes Success in the Teaching of History -
Rob & Cyndy Shearer
As homeschoolers, we
practice outcome-based education. We won’t consider our task to have
been successfully accomplished just because the students survive the year
and finish reading (most of) the textbook. In history, we don’t consider
scoring above the 50th percentile on the social studies section of the
standardized achievement test to be success either..
