Discover the Joy of Language!
We are thrilled to share The Good & Beautiful curriculum with you and we are so grateful to Jenny Phillips for making this available to homeschool families!
The Good & the Beautiful language arts and literature curriculum is a resource designed for homeschool families or for parents wanting to supplement their children’s educations. The courses foster a true love of learning while teaching strong and advanced academics. The images and artwork, the exercises and assignments, and the literature used are all designed to connect children to the good and the beautiful: family, God, high moral character, wholesome literature, and the wonders and beauty of nature and human life. This one-of-a-kind, multi-denominational curriculum requires no prep time once printed and assembled. Each day, just open the book and follow the instructions, learning and exploring along with your child–there is no need to read ahead or spend hours preparing lessons.

We love the McGuffey Readers! These timeless readers may be used today as a read-a-loud book where children read to parents and teachers. While reading these stories, children learn about the values that made this country great. Discover how you can incorporate the McGuffey Readers into your Language Arts program at our new McGuffey Readers Reading Guide website. Whether you use the Original or Revised version of McGuffey Readers, you will find helpful resources on this site. http://mcguffeyreadersguide.weebly.com/
