MFW Takes the Stress out of Homeschooling

by Suzy

I had 5 older children plus an almost kindergartener and decided I needed a unit study that had most of the planning done for me.

I bought kindergarten and the Geography curriculum from My Father's World. It was the best year I had ever had homeschooling!

Three of the children were in Geography together. The lesson plans were well laid out, but easy to adapt to my children's different ages. The children loved it! I loved it! Suddenly school was something they begged to do. (What a pleasant change!) The most important thing was that they were actually learning while they were having fun.

We have continued with the MFW program of studying history chronologically this year. It's a little more challenging in content. Still the information is presented in such a way as to challenge my 7th grader, and fascinate my 3rd grader. The only down side to this program is that access to a printer and a local library is very helpful to use it effectively.

Kindergarten was clearly spelled out, easy to use, and the only down side was that my kindergartener was so eager she never wanted to stop. She learned quickly and is in their first grade program now.

My Father's World K

We just began using My Father's World K program, and we are loving it. It is very doable, i.e. a short school day and easy prep. But, the short lessons seem to teach the same things that used to take me 4 hours a day to teach last year with another curriculum. We have time to take field trips and study a foreign language. My 2 year old tags along, so it is family friendly.

The best part of MFW is not even the curriculum. It is people who use it. They have such a sweet Christ-like spirit on the message board. It is like you become part of a family, where you honestly can get constant support when you need it.

I look forward to future years when the students will read the bible through using MFW. In a time when academics can make bible study go on the back burner for many homeschoolers, it is exciting to know the bible will be an integral part of our school day.

Oh yah- and my kids like all the fun- get your hands dirty- hands on projects too! Ok- and Mommmy even likes them too. :)

My Fathers World

I have used My Father's World for the past five years and we just love it! My kindergartener learns alot while listening to me teach my 5th grader and I think I have learned more as a teacher than I ever learned in school. The bible based lessons are amazing. One of the best parts about the program is that most of the prep work is already done! More time to enjoy teaching and less time creating lesson plans.

I very highly recommend this program- especially if your child enjoys history. This is by far the best history curriculum I have ever seen.
