What’s subject integration? This: while you’re studying the history of each period, you’re also naturally weaving in its science, art, and music . . . and using the same books to teach language arts.

And integrating subjects, rather than artificially separating each subject, aligns better with the way our kids’ brains naturally learn. Consequently, children learn better when we integrate subjects naturally along with using different senses as a part of the learning.

So, no more paying for a separate curriculum for each subject!

 And everyone can study the same thing at the same time, each at his or her own level!

While learning about the Middle Ages, your children will be studying maps (geography) and dramatizing what they’re learning about (fine arts) . . .

(Ask me about the time water leaked through the ceiling light fixtures while my kids were ‘playing rainforest’ in the shower upstairs!)

Narrations (language arts) don’t always have to be out loud – drawing, painting, and making models are all valid ways of expressing what your kids are learning…

Instead of just memorizing isolated ho hum textbook facts, your kids will be gobbling up exciting stories. They’ll be immersing themselves in cultures often far different from their own (language arts/history)…

And they’ll be writing and talking about what they’re learning (language arts), as well as sharing their knowledge with their siblings . . . and parents!
