What is Easy Peasy All-in-One Homeschool?

We be to help families homeschool. We enable families to homeschool who thought they couldn't because of a lack of finances, a lack of fourth dimension, or a lack of know-how. Others join EP merely considering it's easy and fun and they're confident of the quality of pedagogy. EP seeks to complimentary families from the brunt of pursuing the "perfect" and encourages them to let it be "enough." Each family unit and each child is different and nosotros seek to provide the resources to enable your family to be who you were created to exist.

In 2011, I (Lee Giles) began putting my children's assignments online then that they could work independently and and so that I had the assignments saved for their younger siblings. I also wrote information technology from the beginning to be able to be used by other families. EP grade levels and individual courses include 180 days of homeschool lessons and assignments. It covers reading, writing, grammar, spelling, vocabulary, math, history/social studies/geography, scientific discipline, Castilian, Bible, computer, music, art, PE/health, and logic. It uses but free materials found on the net.

This site holds preschool, kindergarten, and start through eighth. We have a separate high schoolhouse site. Choosing a level (on My EP) will set reading, language arts, math, computer and logic, any of which can be switched to a more appropriate level without affecting the others. Choosing a theme enables all of your children to report the aforementioned topic at the same time. The themes are based around the history courses of ancient history, early American history, geography and cultures, and mod history. Music and art are role of these themes and science is set to what would typically exist studied at the same time.

You choose the courses. Set it and forget it. Then your child just clicks on the assignment box for each class (found on My EP) and starts their assignments. It will track what lesson they are on and their days. Information technology does not relieve any other information. We practise non rails your students. It's simply an aid for you.

And aye, it's all free. Y'all'll need paper, pencil, etc. and some minor supplies if yous cull to do the experiments and fine art projects, but all of the reading materials, etc. are all free and online. We do offer offline courses for math, reading, and linguistic communication arts, which you can find in our store. In the store y'all can as well discover workbooks of Printables, the worksheets used in the online courses and so that you don't accept to print. There is a suggested donation for using My EP if you so choose.

My hope is to enable families to continue homeschooling no matter their life circumstances. A sis site, All-in-One Loftier School, holds the loftier school courses.

You can read my responses to the questions "Is it enough?" and "How can this be costless?".

You can read more than virtually the curriculum on the About and Overview pages. You tin besides see if your questions have been answered on the FAQ page.

Note: EP is non an online schoolhouse. We are a homeschool resources. Your habitation is the school! You lot are the ambassador. We're simply here to help y'all on your way.

Homeschooling is not the answer. Now, to be clear, school is definitely non the reply! Like shooting fish in a barrel Peasy's curriculum is not the reply. Neither is any other. This book, that method, this resource, that game, this strategy, that set-up. None of it is the answer to whatever the situations are that your family unit is facing.

We all love an easy-to-implement program. Can nosotros all say Easy Peasy? We don't know how to ready our problems, so we rely on people who seem to have fixed theirs. The bad news is that no other person tin figure it out for you and solve your issues. The smashing news is there is Someone who has all the answers.

Jesus is the respond. He's the answer to everything. Aye, everything! Why do we plow to blogs and friends and online searches and effort this and that and the other for our dilemma of the hour when we have the perfect source for all wisdom and knowledge? Information technology must mean we either don't have a relationship with Him or we don't know Him well enough to believe He will hear and respond our prayers.

How can you get a relationship with the source of all wisdom and noesis?

God is the perfect everything. That'south man's trouble. We got ourselves separated from this perfect source past our sin, our selfishness, this dumb idea humans have that we know what's best for ourselves and that we should do as we please. It leads to every mess of a situation life brings to united states.

To come to God, we have to apprehensive ourselves and admit that nosotros aren't God. Understatement of the century! Nosotros confess that nosotros no longer want to try and control our lives, and we give our lives over to Him. We ask Him to forgive us for all our sin, all those things nosotros do that hurt ourselves and others, and ask Him to come into our lives to be our Father, to teach us, take intendance of united states of america, and show us the fashion to live.

He can forgive us considering Jesus took the punishment for sin, which is death. Jesus, as God come down to us in the flesh, was the merely sinless, perfect person ever; He was the only ane who didn't have to die for His sin in guild for justice to be done. That made Him able to have our death penalty for us, since He didn't need to die Himself. He sacrificed Himself for us. When nosotros are forgiven, we can receive His life in us. He comes to us past the Holy Spirit. The Spirit makes His home in us, and nosotros let Him alive His life through us.

With His ever-presence, nosotros have the source of not just wisdom and knowledge, just the source of all true love, joy, peace, faithfulness, and and then much more goodness than you can imagine.

If you have made this stride or find yourself in the other category of merely not knowing God well enough to trust Him to exist your help in everything, consider reaching out. I have tons of Bible teaching on the site. The study calledThis Is Eternal Life might be a good place for you to start.

This yr's September Study will be released at the end of August. It's calledThe Suffering Servant. Observe purpose and joy in the trials and tribulations! For September, we're all getting a free month of Mr. Phil TV, from Phil Vischer, creator ofVeggie Tales. More on that when I release the September Report.

Good Morning, Lord! These are ii-infinitesimal teachings going direct through the Bible that you can read or mind to. There are more than than 400 then far. You tin can find this on My EP.

That's the hardest office of doing videos.

I know I'thousand belatedly with my life update this yr. Information technology'south already February! I didn't know what to say or how to say it. As for my kids, as of December 31st, they are ix, eleven, 13, sixteen, 20, 21. The oldest is a senior in college. The next in line is building a computer 3D modeling business. In 2021 he worked on contract with companies from Brazil and Korea. He besides sells avails and tools that he's created and has big plans for this yr, which I gauge you'll hear nigh next year!

Here are maybe my two favorite pictures from the year.

Hither my hubby and I are pictured with one of my quondam campsite kids. We "randomly" ran into him in September. When I was in college, I ran a summer plan for kids through CityTeam Ministries in Chester, PA. Information technology was a full mean solar day camp for the whole summer. We had the same kids year after twelvemonth, and I was fully invested, so I got to know, especially some of the kids, very well. I went to visit their homes in the projects and took them on excursions. They all had turns coming to my parents' house to work on a camp newsletter. Brennan remembers my mom serving him fried eggplant. He had thought information technology was breaded craven. Must have traumatized him since he remembers 25 years later. :0 He told me of how he got baptized and how I inverse his life. Nifty memory for me. These kids had families that used the services of the drug-rehab and homeless shelter. They all had tough stories. He was the kind of kid that I sometimes prayed the Lord would merely keep him alive. He did and abundantly so. This was a big care for for me last twelvemonth.

Homeschooling looks different in different places. This flick is from Republic of uganda. My married man has a friend, who is a refugee at that place himself, though in college. The kids in the refugee camp take had limited access to education, especially since COVID requirements close down all meetings, including schools. He wanted to exercise something for them and started talking with my husband nearly homeschooling and it developed into a plan. He started a non-turn a profit and got together some laptops and teachers. The teachers take the laptops to homes 2 hours at a time. They get in three homes before the bombardment dies. There is limited electricity in the camp, just the teachers charge the laptops overnight. The only focus is literacy and computer literacy. Many of these kids accept never touched a calculator earlier. The academy student, our friend, is taking our EP coding class and has plans to teach the kids coding to try and work towards getting them into jobs. There are way more kids wanting to accept function than can at this bespeak, so I am sure this idea of his will keep growing.

My hubby finished the Biblical Hebrew grade which you lot run into on the site, and is planning to add to it as he is able. He is yet working on the Romani Bible translation, a big undertaking, just they have fabricated tons of progress. He meets weekly (online) with Roma families and they read the Bible together in Romani and pray together.  I am working on some more phenomenon stories for our 153love.net site equally well. I will hopefully be getting those up over the adjacent several weeks. I also am working on getting together more of the Skillful Morning time, Lord! lessons edited into books and then getting those edited versions onto our EP site and the videos uploaded to YouTube. I have written over 300 at this point.

The residuum of the piece of work we're officially doing you probably know well-nigh from the site. Thank you for partnering with u.s. and being function of our EP family unit. I know many of yous are too my dear brothers and sisters in Christ. I'1000 thankful He's brought u.s.a. together for such a time as this.

UPDATE: The books and courses have been released. Here's the new web log post with all the info.

Update: The last math books are being published this week. I volition start working on getting all the new links on the site this calendar week. Once everything is ready, I'll have a new post here with more info specific to each course then yous can be confident about the changes and what they mean to you. All the new math books take a big NEW bluecoat on them. The new courses when they appear in My EP will all also say NEW on them. You lot'll be able to know for sure you are using the new update!

Below is the data I released before on the new Math one, 2, and 3 courses. Here's the new info. Nosotros're releasing updates to Math 4 and Math five also. Math 4 is getting daily fraction practice for a good office of the year, and the answer key has word problems worked out as much equally we could. Math 5 is getting more examples in the lessons and parent guide likewise as existence reworked a fiddling in a few places. Other niggling updates in the books include replacing all the problems pictures. For the bug lovers out at that place, there are still some, but drawing images this time. I had as well asked in the Preschool and Kindergarten facebook group for your children's names. I used that listing and worked to include lots of new names into the new math courses. 🙂

In high schoolhouse, Literature and Composition 2 is getting a whole new course. There will exist books for a complete offline grade besides. Geometry is in the works, but we couldn't become that done for this year.

The new grade links volition starting time to appear on the site in Apr so you tin can begin with the new courses if you are ready. You'll exist able to add them to My EP with Parent Add-Ons, and we'll be making more announcements every bit they are added officially into the course blocks on My EP.

I've been working to update several of our math courses. Some other courses are getting updates, simply levels one, 2, and 3 are getting whole new courses. We typically switch in new courses around the 4th of July. By then about people are finished their school yr only not starting the new year however.

The former courses volition exist available for y'all to finish if you will observe yourselves in the heart of ane of those courses when summer rolls effectually. You should just terminate out the class you are in.

The alter volition mostly simply affect those in Level 1 Math currently. The other levels are not really introducing new content. Things are just moved effectually to go far some more do with multidigit improver and subtraction in Level ii and multiplication and sectionalisation facts practice in Level 3. The merely existent content modify takes place in Level 1 Math. In the new grade, they piece of work on all their math facts upwardly to nine plus 9 and eighteen minus 9. That means in the new Level 2 Math they volition be expected to know those.

The current online course and offline parent guide both make mention of that and ask you to practice those facts over your summer pause.

We volition programme on releasing all the new books to match these new courses in April. In April we will likewise release all the updates to the other books.

I was thinking how no 1 was going to find all the little things I did to get ready for Christmas morning. No one is going to recognize my thoughtfulness in wrapping the silly little things in their stockings so they take things to unwrap while they look for grandparents to go far and settle in on Christmas morning. They won't appreciate the organization and lists to brand sure everyone has the same number of gifts so no i feels left out every bit we go round and open the gifts on Christmas morning. No one is going to say thanks for making sure Christmas Eve dinner is all planned so nosotros can become to the Christmas Eve service. No one is going to stop and realize that everyone got their ain favorite treats in their stocking, just that they are happy to get what was in their ain. I doubt anyone will thank me for organizing the gifts then everyone can notice theirs or that I planned the order of gifts for optimal happiness. 😊 They will just be happy. And that was the point, to make them happy, non to get the give thanks y'all.

I may not be wiping down the counters or the mirrors for the millionth time for their happiness, but just because it needs to be done, and I can do it. It makes me happy to keep the home in guild and moving along, fifty-fifty if no one notices the multitude of trivial things that us moms (and dads) constantly practise to go along life happy for our families. No one says thank you lot when groceries need to exist put away. No one says thanks for getting the bills paid. Our kids live in a flake of ignorance when information technology comes to the many blessings they receive from having y'all as their mother or begetter or grandparent to take intendance of them.

I know it's easy to sigh and wonder why they can't proceed their fingers off the mirrors, but it's also a joy to do information technology with a heart of gratitude. In that location's a poetry in Proverbs that goes something similar this: The stable is clean where there are no oxen. I'grand thankful my domicile is full, even if that means there is ever something to be wiped from the counters.

And information technology's a glimpse at the Father'southward heart. He sends the rain on the righteous and the unrighteous, meeting their basic needs. The sunday rises to give united states of america all lite and heat each 24-hour interval. It sets to give us rest. Jesus healed even the ungrateful ones. Information technology pleases the Father to care for His children. It pleases the Father to intendance for His creation, fifty-fifty when they don't recognize information technology. And I wonder how many "little things" I miss that my good Begetter is doing for me.

You lot know how good it feels when someone does observe and stops to say thanks. We should give that gift to our good Begetter. And when the bad stuff happens, when the problems pile upward, instead of lament as if God is laying down on the job, it should remind us of all the things we've neglected being thankful for, and we should rejoice. It should wake us up to thanksgiving and praise. Problems are temporary, but the dearest of our Father is for all eternity.
