Don't miss our Thanksgiving Sale!<\/p><\/div>\n

Welcome to this hundred-and-umpteenth Carnival of Homeschooling<\/strong>! Because November is National Novel Writing Month<\/a><\/strong> (also known as NaNoWriMo or nano), and I’m over 10,000 words into the writing process (and can’t think of anything but writing, writing, and more writing), I thought it would be appropriate to format this Carnival as sections of a book<\/strong>. I even consulted the Chicago Manual of Style<\/em><\/strong><\/a> for an authoritative list of book parts!<\/p>\n

Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n

For me, homeschooling is first and foremost a heart matter. In Mangled Schedules and Grateful Hearts<\/a><\/strong>, an article I wrote for Home School Enrichment<\/a> magazine, you can read how a father’s presence and influence can shape a family school. Enjoy! <\/p>\n

Chapter 1: Planning<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Homeschooling Families: Getting Ready for a New Baby<\/a>, Carletta at\u00a0 Successful Homeschooling<\/a> writes, “This is part 2 of my series on getting your home school ready for a new baby, and contains fun ideas for welcoming a new baby into the home.”<\/p>\n

Alex presents Free Printable Calendar 2010<\/a> posted at Home Life Weekly<\/a>. Use these free printable calendars to plan your home schooling for the next school year.<\/p>\n

Carol J. Alexander presents Tip of the Day #9<\/a> posted at Everything Home…with Carol<\/a>. \tThis tip discusses the importance of having a flexible schedule<\/strong>, and is a perfect companion to the “Mangled Schedules…” article above.<\/p>\n

Chapter 2: Things You Really Need to Know<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this “must read” article, Adam Faughn presents a list of 7 Things You Can Say to Harm a Child<\/a> posted at The Faughn Family of Four<\/a>. He has targeted the seven things parents (and others) need to avoid saying around children, and it’s a reminder that needs to be posted somewhere prominent!<\/p>\n

In a bow to life’s realities, blogger Angela Mills suggests compiling a Homeschool Mom’s Survival Kit<\/a> . You can read more at her blog, Angela Mills<\/a>. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Susan Anadale reminds you to encourage your kiddos to follow their dreams:-) in Homeschooling Hearts and Minds: Sometimes it pays to go back…<\/a> posted at Homeschooling Hearts and Minds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Yesterday was one of those days<\/a>, Janine Cate writes about a typical day of homeschooling and life on the Why Homeschool<\/a> blog.<\/p>\n

In a timely reminder of common courtesy, ChristineMM presents Homeschoolers and H1N1 Swine Flu<\/a> posted at The Thinking Mother<\/a>. She shares our federal government’s CDC guidelines for H1N1 Swine Flu and discuses the responsibility that homeschoolers have to take to implement these recommendations.
