Unveiling MathMath has long been shrouded in facts and mathematical nomenclature. But math does not have to be mysterious. Nor do we as Christians have to teach math the same way the world does. Come take a look at how various math concepts-from basic counting to algebra and geometry-are really useful, exciting tools that point us to our great Creator. You will discover that when approached in light of biblical principles, math takes on new meaning and becomes a refreshing reminder to trust God. Whether you like math or not, you will be inspired to begin "unveiling" math with your children. |
The Need for Socialization: The Myths and the FactsDo I need to worry about getting my children around other children? Does homeschooling prepare children to socialize in the real-world? If so, how?

Bob Loop, a homeschool father, and Katherine Loop, a homeschool graduate, will share some of the myths about socialization they struggled with over the years and the things the Lord has taught them.
