Welcome to Finishing Strong ~ a weekly link-up dedicated to families homeschooling middle & high school kids. Each Wednesday, moms just like you share their best tips, encouragement, advice, and more for teaching older kids at home.
I am delighted that families homeschooling middle and high school age students are coming together and finding inspiration in one another. That’s has been the goal of Finishing Strong since its inception. Thank you!!
Finishing Strong is hosted by me here at EvaVarga along with my friends – Heather from Blog She Wrote, Megan and Susan from Education Possible, and Heidi from Starts at Eight.
This past week, I have been been reminiscing about our trip to Italy a year ago in a series of posts, Falling in Love with Italy. It saddens me that in the midst of my week-long hopscotch, Italy was struck with a severe earthquake taking the lives over over 120 people. My heart goes out to the victims and their families.
I know you will find the posts that have been shared with us inspiring! Grab a cup of tea, kick back, and take some time to check out the wonderful posts shared below. What are your favorites?
Last week’s most visited post was 2016-2017 9th Grade Curriculum Choices by Hydrangeas and Harmony
I now know I am not alone in my curiosity to know what curriculum others have chosen. 🙂
I loved 5 Books that Inspired Walt Disney Movies by Megan at Education Possible
What a great way to encourage our tweens and teens to read.
Another post I enjoyed was 5 Reasons Why Cyber Schooling is Not Homeschooling at There’s No Place Like Home
A friend of mine from high school has recently started homeschooling. After a year of cyber schooling, she was feeling overwhelmed and reached out to me. This post helped me to clarify a number of myths about homeschooling and partnering with an online school.
Lastly, I selected Tara’s post How to Prepare for a Homeschool Field Trip at Embark on the Journey
With her tips, you’ll be planning field trips for every month of the school year, if not more. 🙂
