Soma Tonga
In India, if you are walking through rural roads, you'll occasionally come across a post with a sturdy shelf about shoulder height. It is called ''Soma Tonga,'' which means ''resting place.'' When people are traveling with a heavy load, they place their heavy load on the shelf for relief. Once rested, they continue their journey.
What do you think Christians in India call Jesus? ''My Soma Tonga.''
''Cast your cares upon Him'' 1 Peter 5:7

When Selling Homeschool Books....
After several years of selling our used homeschool books, I have learned the following:
1) Make sure to keep all emails concerning a transaction.
2) Be sure to have a ''hard copy'' of a buyers name and address, just in case you have a computer problem.
3) When shipping, be sure to use media mail, the prices are lower than the standard rate.
4) Use delivery confirmation and email the tracking number to the buyer as soon as you ship. That way both parties know where the merchandise is at all times. | | boswifedeb |

Mailing Items with Paypal
Did you know that if you have a scale to weigh your package then you can go to
https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_ship-now
pay for, print out a shipping label, and place in your mailbox.
It appears cheaper than the post office. Also your package is automatically tracked for $.19 and you can add insurance if you like. | | valerie_jones |

Make Your Student Your Teacher
To solidify her learning, I am trying the following approach. After my daughter has learned a new concept in her curriculum, whether from a CD presentation, or a video, or from her own reading, I have her teach the concept to me, using a different example than the one presented in her lesson. If she can teach me what she just learned, she has gained in knowledge with experience, and is less likely to forget it. | | mom4ever |

Learning Together
Home schooled children frequently combine for many purposes - and they interact well. The growth of the home schooling movement means that more and more children are learning together, just not in a traditional classroom.

Chess Promotes Spiritual Growth
In addition to the improvement in spatial relations skills, visualization, mathematics, and so forth that you've already heard of, chess has some spiritual benefit. The game is very contemplative, much more consistent with the Christian worldview than, say, video games. | | jfulrich |

Don't Worry
Don't worry if you don't finish every book/text book you have. Most textbooks review the beginning of each year anyway. It's best to relax, do your best, and enjoy the learning experiences along the way. | | debhomeschool |
