Reader Reviews
This book is a magnificent Bible centered approach that is much needed in today's academic minded homeschool community. It will provide you with the methods, program, and resources for a course of study where students focus half the school day studying God's Word and the other half studying God's world (academics). Easy, entertaining and actually fun! Students study history chronologically and science in the order of the days of creation. This book will instruct you, step by step, how to give your child a Bible focused, comprehensive education from preschool through high school; one that will train him or her to read, to study, to understand, to LOVE TO LEARN and most importantly to desire and seek true wisdom. This approach can be used for all grade levels. Sampson gives an excellent Bible focused alternative to classical education by encouraging students to study snippets of the classics from a Biblical worldview without immersing them in the pagan writings. The "Rethinking Education" section explains the historical and cultural background of my recipes. Here you will learn how it is necessary to look at education through history. This section includes the origins and development of our traditional educational methods, from ancient times until today, with an appeal to return to biblical methods. The Heart of Wisdom Methods include the most popular homeschool teaching philosophies: Bible First, Delight Directed, Discipleship, approaches outlined by Charlotte Mason and Ruth Beechick, Hebrew methods, learning styles, and more! You will learn about the Heart of Wisdom four-year plan and philosophies for teaching each subject, as well as how to create your own unit studies (or use the lessons from Heart of Wisdom) The Resources section includes book lists included in the Heart of Wisdom four-year plan. This section explains books that should be in every homeschool library and provides hundreds of books by grade level to teach the unit studies. Sample pages are available from the author's site.
