Hip Homeschool Moms. A Vibrant Community for Homeschooling Families.
Trish is the owner of Hip Homeschool Moms. She also owns Weird, Unsocialized Homeschoolers, Homeschool Travel Adventures, Only Passionate Curiosity and Love These Recipes! She has been married to her best friend, David, for 25 years and they have three sons (ages 23, 22 and 18). Trish is from the coast of North Carolina, but they now live in rural West Tennessee on a 40+ acre farm. She has been homeschooling since 2009 and her homeschool style leans towards a Montessori approach with a heavy emphasis on hands-on learning. Trish’s family is Messianic and they love studying the Scriptures, learning Hebrew and growing in their faith and walk daily. In her spare time, Trish loves to travel, write, work in their garden and can regularly be found trying to learn something new, modeling that learning is indeed a life-long endeavor!
Jesus taught with hands-on lessons and illustrations. The Hands-On Bible uses the same experience-based learning to communicate God’s Word in an active, understandable way. This new edition features updated tip-ins, a more portable size for kids, an attractive cover, and online parenting helps. With hundreds of fun, memorable activities (A “Do-It” activity in EVERY feature!) and the full New Living Translation text, the Hands-On Bible is packed with activities and experiences that invite kids to crawl inside the Scriptures and “do” God’s Word!
Powerful Printing & Conquering Cursive are student-guided, multi-sensory, fun-to-use computer software programs. All students can learn to write fluently and legibly. Using a computer mouse – the modern-day equivalent to writing in the air or on the chalkboard – students learn correct letter patterns. Writing letters the same way every time builds the motor memory needed to reproduce letters using the finer coordination required with a pencil. Kids learn to write so they can write to learn! Instruction is customized for right-handed and left-handed kids!
Available in print (Powerful Printing) or cursive (Conquering Cursive) versions as a printed product, pdf, software, or app.
