His Treasure Seekers

At the Back-to-School picnic with our homeschool support group on Sunday, one of the dads asked Eli about his favorite subject.  It only took a second for him to decide.

“History!”

We are now starting our third year using a Veritas Press Self-Paced History Course (we’ve made it to the 1815-the Present course!), and the boys still enjoy it as much as they did when we first discovered these fantastic programs.  They love the review games that make it feel like they’re playing video games for school, and I love how much they are learning in process.  Win-win!

If you’re looking for something your kids can do independently for history, I highly recommend these Veritas Press courses. They even have recommended literature to along with the online portion, with the books broken down into daily assignments to help students know what they should be reading that after they complete their lesson. (We like to do these as family read-alouds.)

We’ve also done two of the Bible courses and they were equally well done. All the self-paced online course are on sale right now, so it’s a great time to check them out!
