Got my new Veritas Press catalog in the mail today,
now I know what everyone is excited about!
This is a self-paced history/Bible class in one! It starts history from creation, (which would qualify it -for me- to be
Bible), and then goes on from there to present time. It's all online, and the kids watched a video of a sample lesson and really enjoyed it. It does cost a little much, so I am going to have them take it together. The course is very thourough, having quizes and tests and such. It even has a book list where they can read books that go alon with the topics they will be studying.

To complete all history (and get to present day), it will take 5 years! My oldest will be in grade 8 by then-wow!! It is that complete, full of a bunch of needless facts and such to memorize, that get reviewed over and over! ;)-DH will like that, lol..can you tell???-don't care for history at all!!
Which makes the program even more exciting, as they don't have to see my negative attitudes toward history, they'll have a lot more fun doing their history lesson online (complete with quizes and games and fun!)
So this is exciting, and I am eagar to get them on it.
This is the latest news.
Happy Homeschooling!
