    Why The Rise In African American Homeschooling, Part 1 (Replay)

    The Rise of African American Homeschooling Last month, Fletch read an interesting article in The Washington Post called, Racism in Schools is Pushing More Black Families to Homeschool Their Children. The title alone was enough to get him interested, but in the article the writer discussed why there has been such a sharp rise in African American Homeschooling. We thought this was a good discussion to have with our listeners, so we pursued the author for an interview. Thanks to our sponsor! NowPrograms.com – visit the website for more information. Dr. Ama Mazama, professor of African American Studies at Temple University and homeschooling parent, joins us for an important discussion. In our interview, Professor Mazama discusses her research and shares with us why she believes there has been a distinct rise in homeschooling among black families. You will want to listen to this interview and join us as we explore the questions and challenges that this discussion creates.

    HomeschoolingIRL Episode 3: Homeschooling, Halloween and Harry Potter

    Homeschooling, Halloween, and Harry Potter Homeschooling, Halloween, and Harry Potter? Are we nuts? Well, yes, but that didn’t stop us from tackling two hot-potato topics that homeschoolers traditionally love to argue over. You, too? In this episode, replayed in honor of the Ultimate Homeschool Podcast's 11th Birthday and sponsor,  Fletch and Kendra talk about Halloween and the opportunity to love the places where God has put our families. We discuss fear and the life of the believer, and then Fletch elaborates about a character in the Harry Potter series that taught him a valuable lesson. We promise if you listen, you won’t turn into a newt. You won’t be made fun of or persuaded to change your mind (unless the Holy Spirit does that), and we won’t send you out into the neighborhood looking for the scariest costume this year. We just thought we’d put it all out on the table, with a big bowl of candy corn just to make sure we keep it sweet. Join us?   Show Notes for Episode #3 70 Vintage Halloween Costumes That Were Really Creepy, from Stuff You Should Know From Christians and Halloween, Grace to You: Evil spirits are no more active and sinister on Halloween than they are on any other day of the year; in fact, any day is a good day for Satan to prowl about seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). But "greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world" (1 John 4:4). God has forever "disarmed principalities and powers" through the cross Christ and "made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them through [Christ]" (Colossians 2:15). Dolores Umbridge Speech (YouTube clip) from Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix   For more information about this podcast or to connect with Fletch and Kendra directly you can follow HomeschoolingIRL  on Facebook and Twitter.

    Special Replay! Homeschooling Will Save Your Kids, HIRL

    Homeschooling Will Save Your Kids? Most of us won’t say outright that we think homeschooling will save our kids, but many of us pack this idea in the back of our minds: if we only do it right, our kids will turn out to be good, godly adults. Is that true? Can we trust that homeschooling will save your kids? On this episode, we share our own homeschool journey. Where we think we got it right, where we know we got it wrong, and then we'll bring some levity to the whole show by recommending some things we love and a new segment called "Q and A with K and A."  Join us for Homeschooling IRL Episode #4 Where we peel back the layers of our own hearts and expose the areas where we may be relying on our own good works to deliver our kids to the finish line.

    I Love Homeschooling But I Hate Teaching Math – HIRL Episode 31

    Hate math? And I hate teaching science. And writing. Or . . . Let's get real homeschoolers. Most of us have at least one subject we don't enjoy teaching. What? That is difficult to justify when we are the ones in charge of teaching all the subjects. So what is a homeschooling parent supposed to do when there are core subjects that must be covered, but there is no motivation by mom or dad to get that subject done every week, or they feel unqualified to teach it? In this episode of HomeschoolingIRL, Fletch and Kendra discuss the reality of teaching multiple subjects to multiple grade levels and resources for getting some help. Join them as they encourage their listeners to think a little bit outside of the proverbial box.

What is our response? What should it be? Join us as we interview homeschooling mom and blogger Linda Difino, who shares her story of homeschooling through multiple hard times. For complete show notes and links to what we discussed on this episode, go to our website: HomeschoolingIRL.com Thanks to NOW Programs, this evidence-based program helps students learn differences.
