Don't
let self-doubt, or lack of experience, rob you of the best first year
possible!
All you need are a few basic "how-to's" and your
homeschool can be up and running in 48 hours
or less. Plus I'll send you weekly assignment for the next six
months that will help you step-by-step
to turn this first year of homeschooling into the best year ever!
Date: September 2, 2009
From:
Todd and Terri Johnson
All around the country, parents are pulling their kids out of school
because of the liberal agenda, worldly curriculum, low academic standards,
overcrowded classrooms, lack of individualized attention, problems on the
playground, harmful peer-pressure, etc.
And private school isn't necessarily the best solution either. With
skyrocketing tuition fees, more over-crowding and the influx of expelled
students from the public school system, parents are realizing that private
school doesn't always solve the problems created by public school
shortcomings. This leaves homeschooling as the best, and perhaps only,
acceptable solution for many families.
But can I let you in on something that nobody is
talking about?
Removing your children from the public school system is the easy part.
Creating and maintaining a healthy, well-rounded, academically superior and
God honoring learning environment at home requires some intentional planning
and execution. It doesn't happen automatically.
In fact, most homeschooling parents would agree that it often takes
two full years to feel as though they have finally entered their stride
and are fostering the home learning environment that they are striving for.
But what about those first two years? We want them to be great, right?
Wouldn't it be nice if this learning curve could be shortened?
I have good news for you! Now, it can.
Join our Homeschooling ABCs class and get 26 weeks of
step-by-step instruction - all the basics of homeschooling from A to Z -
delivered straight to your email box!
Our course will help you to start with confidence and make this year a wonderfully memorable event for your family! Homeschooling is a great educational choice for your children, but if you are just getting started, you may have more questions than you have answers. And perhaps alot of enthusiasm, but not alot
of direction. But that can change starting today..
You are about to embark on an amazing adventure!
So who are we anyway and why would you
want for us to walk along-side you on this exciting new adventure?
Todd and I have been married 20 years, home teaching our children
for 12 years and operating a publishing business (www.knowledgequestmaps.com)
that specializes in history and geography curricula for the homeschool
marketplace for the last 8 years.
We didn't "plan" to homeschool our firstborn daughter but we did choose this
path when she was in kindergarten. We have taught our other five
children at home as well. The first two years were full of trial and
error. There was so much that we didn't know. There were gnawing
questions that we didn't have answers to, such as... "Am I
doing enough?" "Will my child do well on her test?" "Will he be
able to succeed in the outside world" "Am I forgetting to teach
something important?"
And yet, uncertainties and all, we loved the result of teaching our
children at home and each year made the decision to continue along this
journey. Now, in hindsight, we realize that we have something to offer
you, the brand new homeschool parent - something that we wished that we had
had! Because of our experience over the past 11 years, we are ready to provide
you with weekly, step-by-step coaching to help you navigate your way through
that important first year of homeschooling.
That is why we are here today offering this Homeschooling ABCs class for beginning homeschool parents. So that you can benefit from the wisdom and experience of those who have traveled this way before you.
In our class, you will... -
Determine YOUR philosophy of education -
By understanding what you believe about education, you will be able to impart that education more strategically to your children. And stay more focused and on-track!
- Understand your children's learning styles - We all learn differently, there is no doubt about that. When we understand how our child learns best, we can cater his education specifically
to him.
-
Learn the ins and outs of buying & selling curriculum - Let's face it, if we need to buy curriculum to successful teach our children,
we might as well learn to buy it right!

I was sold on the first mini class and
started the 26 week course after that! Thanks for showing us how to start
and stay going. We are excited with Homeschooling ABCs and feel
comfortable knowing someone cares about our homeschooling experience being
a success. All the planning is already done for us and we really like the
freebies and weekly schedule that make each lesson personal and fun!
Please tell us this will never end,
lol, no really I mean it ! ! ! Thanks Homeschooling ABCs!

Find out how to get and stay organized -
You and your children will function
better when your school day, school area and school work are well organized.
- Learn how to teach multiple ages at the same time - Most of us do not just have 1 child and so it helps to learn how to teach more than one child at more than one grade level. You CAN
excel at this!
- Make the most of field trips - Field trips can take school from good to great. Find out how to optimize learning while still having fun.
| Oh, I am so glad I found you and this class! I was excited and nervous about this first year of homeschooling, but now... I'm just excited. Thank you! Jennifer |

How to handle the "S" question - Socialization -
People will constantly ask you how you are socializing your children. Have an answer and a plan.
- How to start each day WELL and keep it going that way - Keep your children motivated, stay cheerful in their attitudes and quick to finish their schoolwork.
-
Get hundreds of dollars of free curriculum - Many wonderful companies are partnering with us to bring you the best possible first year experience. They will be giving you substantial portions of their curriculum to get you started right!
Why walk this road alone when you can have someone hold your hand and help guide the way. Homeschooling is a wonderful endeavor, but if you have never taught your child at home before, there are alot of uncertainties. In fact, you can get downright overwhelmed when you do a
Google search on "homeschooling" in order to get more information. There is so much information out there, but none of it is organized for the beginning homeschool parent who needs step-by-step information delivered in bite-sized chunks.
That is exactly what this Homeschooling ABCs class is about - step-by-step information delivered to you once a week via email that will include bite-sized chunks of wisdom
and advice as well as action steps for that week. The following lessons will build
upon that knowledge, but will not overwhelm you because you will have had a week to digest the previous week's lesson and put it into practice.

When you join our Homeschooling ABCs class, you will receive an email each week for 26 weeks that will discuss an important area of homeschooling, give you food for thought and action steps to complete. You will also receive valuable curricula
from our partnering companies each month that you can begin using right away. Over
$275 worth of curricula will be given to you over the course of the next 6 months for your family to use and enjoy. And enjoy you will, as this stuff is amazing!

Thanks so much for sharing everything you know
about homeschooling from A to Z.. I am more than equipped now to start
our homeschooling. By God's grace, I hope that I'll be able to educate my
children in accordance to what and how God wants me to teach them. I know
that He'll provide everything - physically, mentally, financially and
spiritually.
You have been a channel of encouragement to me.
May God bless you, your family and your company.
