Coffee was my pass word if not for coffee today I would be asleep. I am so tired lately it has just been amazing. I started a new medication that is just like a sedative. I’ll begin taking it at night tomorrow. That should help. Sorry I have been so absent. You have a wonderful heart Kalani. I hope your having a GREAT day!

I LOVE being able to homeschool and try to appreciate each day! I think the resource section of the magazine would be very beneficial to us!

Also, I voted for your photo! That is one CUTE kid!

Gina’s last blog post..The Old Schoolhouse

I am new to homeschooling and I just love the fact that there is a magazine for support and the section on blogging with other families to network is awesome

we’ve homeschooled for 12 years now (my oldest will be a senior next year)!

I think it’s neat how they have their publication on every continent
I’ve never subscribed to their magazine.

Laura @ Laura Williams’ Musings’s last blog post..STD Awareness Month: HPV and it’s link to cervical cancer

the fact that its out there.

nice contest

I never knew this existed but I know the kids always feel mail is special so that in itself should help the kids be interested.

I homeschool my kids, actually we just completed our first year. I’m not sure if the magazine would be right for me but it might!!
I did see a free section, where free things are offered on Friday, I’m all about free things lOL!
I’m also going to vote for your photo entry.

I love their contests and freebies!

Charmed’s last blog post..The answer for Zelda is?

We’re still thinking of homeschooling our kids, so I’d like to read it.

Arizona’s last blog post..News Flash! Yet Another Crafting Blog!

We are thinking of homeschool one of our children and would love to learn more! THANKS

thanks!!

I have been homeschooling for 10 years now and have subscribed to TOS in the past, or have picked copies up at the bookstore. For the magazine itself, one of my favourite parts is the advertisements. It sounds crazy, I know, but I have found some great resources or books by leafing through the ads, that I wouldn’t otherwise have heard about. Oftentimes, some of the advertisers will donate prizes as well, for giveaways.

At the website, I refer quite often to the product reveiws and I do subscribe to their weekly Freebie Friday email newsletter and their Homeschool Minute newsletter, where great writers, like Todd Wilson from The Familyman Ministries, offer encouragement and practical ideas to help you on your journey.

I’m a teacher and I wish I could have homeschooled my children. many of them come out of homeschooling lightyears ahead of where we as teachers seem to be able to take them. Trust me the reason is not lack of money but I can’t go on about that now. I think this is a great magazine and I can’t help but steal some of your great ideas.

Show and tell- It sounds interesting to learn how others are homeschooling there children and get ideas on homeschooling your own.

I am considering homeschooling my son and starting in about a year or so. This would give me a wonderful introduction to the area of homeschooling and perhaps help me in my product choices. I found the “international” area of particular interest as it provided Canadian homeschooling links that I had been unaware of. The product review section would also be of use to me. Great giveaway.

I subscribe to their newsletter already and have wanted their magazine for a while. I love that their online store offers free shipping all the time. That influences my likelihood to buy!! Thanks for the giveaway!

THANK YOU GOD BLESS

I will be starting to homeschool my son in the fall and I noticed this wonderful magazine at a friend’s house who is homeschooling both her kids. I was impressed by the great articles and resources it contained. Would love to win a subscribtion. Thanks for the chance.

I started homeschooling my 5yo daughter at the beginning of the school year….I must say I’m hooked and so is she! But the best part is that we belong to a school district/school that has classes just for homeschooled children. My daughter goes to school once a week and I spend 1 hour a day homeschooling. We have the best of both worlds, Perfect!
I really like the Road Map to Success.

We are a homeschooling family of four. This is our third year of homeschooling. Thanks for posting the link. I have never seen it before but I have seen the homeschool blogger site.

I like that it has the news across the nation. Good to keep up on those sort of things.

My favorite part of The Old Schoolhouse Magazine is the Homeschool Lab section. It is always good to get others opinions on new tools.

The mag looks really good… I’ve been looking for reviews for curriculum etc. They’ve got em! YEA!

P. S. I am subscribing to your feed too! Thanks!

Since I am getting geared up to start homeschooling my children, the fact that there are resources for this is a great plus, in my book! If I win the subscription, it would be put to great, and constant use in my house.

I’d love this!

As a former teacher I would love this for my daughter and her daughter,Bella.

I like the individual product reviews. I’d love to win this!

Blessed’s last blog post..Safety for the Waterfowler

I would so enjoy reading product reviews offered in this magazine, we will be beginning our homeschool adventure this fall, and I could use all the resources I can!

What I like about the magazine? is that it actually exists, homeschooler used to get soo shunned.

We are actually planning on teaching our own 2 children at home, I was homeschooled since 5 yrs of age and loved it!

Kristinia’s last blog post..5 Month Doc Appt, or considered 20 weeks..

You’ve been blogged at http://threedifferentdirections.blogspot.com/2008/05/island-life-and-old-schoolhouse.html

I appreciate the product reviews. There’s so much out there to choose from, so a review really helps to narrow my choices down and keeps me from making some mistakes. Thanks! Jane

I love the concept of the Resource Room. This would help me tremendously!! I have a child with dyslexia and other LD’s and who is ADD, and I have a gifted child. Homeschool is great for these kind of children (if you can do it), but there is not a whole lot of help out there and you just kind of feel your way through. I would love to have this resource handy. Enter me please. I’m totally interested!!

Peculiar’s last blog post..FRIDAY FUN DAY WITH “40 WORDS OR LESS PHOTO CHALLENGE”

I think the resources section is the most important!

[...] An Island Life - Subscription to the Old Schoolhouse Magazine (May 6th) [...]

I think I would enjoy, the show and tell, and homeschool lab

Wow! There is too much great info in the sample to choose one favorite. I really like the areas of the Resource Room, Real Science & Contests for Readers. Thanks for the contest.

I think the most interesting thing is simply the community it provides you with other homeschooling families. I looked at an article on their website and found it very interesting that some legislators and other authorities are starting to push “mental screening”… How awful! I’d love a subscription to this. Thanks!

lesson ideas and show & tell..already working with the grands!!!
thank you and enter me please..got you blogged on site…

I really like the show and tell! This would be a wonderful thing to win, especially considering I’ve been wanting to subscribe for so long. Not in our budget just yet!

I’ve posted about your contest on my homeschooling blog! Hope it sends some interest your way. I have a homeschooling giveaway on my blog too… if anyone is interested.

They have some great items in their store like the Latin learning series. They also have great resources like the college directory. Their newsletter is a great resource

i want to win

I love this mag! I used to get used copies from a lady at my church. No matter how old they get, the stuff in them is ALWAYS relevant. You can keep them for years and always look back at this for useful stuff. I hope I win!

Thanks!

learning is awesome

I have never really looked into TOS until now. They have some amazing features. I love the fact that they offer so many resources for homeschoolers. I just started this past Jan and can use all the help I can get.

I find it interesting on how to homeschool.

As a homeschooling mom of 3 under the age of 11, I love the resource section, the encouragement and inspiration, and knowing I am not alone!!! Helpful advice too. Great giveaway!

I am a homeschool mom of 4 wonderful kids and I love the resource pagesand testimonials. I would love a subscription to this wonderful magazine!

I like the contests

I was really interested by the figure of 33,000 of TOS published quarterly. That’s really respectable!

You say that you really respect homeschooling, but you couldn’t do it yourself. One of my friends is a mom to twin girls, and she says that people tell her the same thing all the time, they really respect her but they couldn’t do it. She replies, “Sure you could, if you had to.” There are few people who HAVE to homeschool, but for anyone who feels that it is the best option for their family, I hope that they can find the info and support they need to make it a reality. I do HAVE to homeschool all my kids from kindergarten through graduation unless we move out of state (my kids are non-vaccinated, and we live in one of two states without an optional exemption, so I can’t enroll my kids in any public or private school), and even though it seems daunting, I know I’ll do it. My oldest begins kindergarten this fall, and I also have a 3 3/4 y.o., 2 y.o. and am 14 wks pregnant.

Thanks for the chance to win this mag. It would really be a blessing to me to win it. It looks like a great resource.

Please remember that The Old Schoolhouse magazine in not necessary the methodogies for home schooling but also has strategies that would enhance a student’s education development even for those that are not home schooled. Many Thanks!!! Best of Luck and Happy Mother’s Day to ALL!

It is my favorite homeschooling magazine. It is full of useful tips and ideas about how to teach

as the parent of 2 autistics, I am expesially interested in the Resource Room.

The Teachers’ Lounge looks very interesting. I subscribed to your feed.
