Good Literature

This first post will be short. My 3-year-old is hanging off my arm and giving me the not-so-subtle signal that I have spent too much time on the computer and now need to pay attention to more important things. Like getting dressed and out of the house.

Most ideas in teaching are not new. We borrow from each other. We exchange information. The most important lesson I learned as a teacher was that you can't do it alone. You need mentors and friends to bounce ideas off of. So if you are new to teaching or homeschooling, please find a mentor!

So, here's no exception to the rule. One of my fellow playdate moms shared this website with me via email. Here it is: www.bfbooks.com. Beautiful Feet books. They have an online catalog where you can search for individual books or actual literature units. The great thing is that all the books on this website are GOOD books. Good for teaching, character training, social studies, science, etc... They list many award winning books on their website. I poked around and had to restrain myself from buying books my daughter won't need for another 5 years.

You gotta love a good literature website. Thanks, Katie, for sharing.
