Concerned
homeschooling parents are always asking "Am I doing
enough?" This book answers this question and much,
much more! It includes the checklists for academic evaluation
for each grade K-8 and much more. Our children need
to obtain academic knowledge, but, more importantly,
they need to acquire the wisdom to know how to use the
knowledge! Academic standards should not be separated
from spiritual standards! We need to teach the whole
child according to the child's individual God-given
gifts. True wisdom progresses beyond intellectual pursuit;
it is practical. The goals outlined in this book will
help you prepare, teach, and evaluate your children
from a Biblical world view. It will also advise you
in helping them become self-motivated, lifelong learners.

I just love the Clarksons' writings.
Their writings are strongly Bibilcal and balanced. The
goal in Educating the WholeHearted Child is to give
Christian parents who desire to homeschool a detailed
and trustworthy map that will enable them to confidently
and joyfully follow the path of biblical home education
from beginning to end. The "Home-Centered Learning"
model of home education presented in this book is a
comprehensive, uncomplicated approach that integrates
all required areas of study for children aged 4-14.
It shows you how to use real books and real life to
liberate learning in your home from the tyranny of textbooks,
the grip of curriculum, and the rigid rule of school.

here are reprints from a Homeschool magazine, and others
came from conferences. One chapter answershigh school
questions. Special education and testing are included
