Bible Based Homeschooling

When my children were 7,10 and 11 I removed them from Public School because of a lot of emotional abuse by teachers (my daughter)  and a school psychologist (my youngest son).  I always wanted to teach them with the Bible but in those days Homeschool wasn't what it is today.  We were the only people homeschooling where we lived then.  Everyone but 2 Public School teachers were totally against it.  But we saw what the Schools were becoming and we were also adamant that they were not going to be subjected to that. 
Since there was only ACE and Alpha Omega that we knew of we ended up using ACE because it was what we could afford.  I did find a Curriculum somewhere in New England that used only the Bible but could not afford it at that time.  When we did have the money I wrote for a catalog and received my letter back.  They were not longer where they had been.  I never did find out what happened to them. 
Fast forward 29 years and I have found a wonderful site that is offering a eBook  called " Bible Based Homeschooling: Our Experiment with Using the Bible as Our Main Textbook" by Karen Debus.  She has some freebies to download and a newsletter that you can sign up for so you can get new freebies as she offers them. 
I think this is a great site.  Check it out and you might just find yourself using the Bible as your main textbook.

I will try and send the Information on the Founders Bible in the next day or so.  This Bible is the Best book to use when Teaching American History from the Beginning of the United States up to about the Mid 1900's.  It has materials that you will wonder why you were not taught about all of the history it has between the covers along with the Bible.  The Bible translation it uses is the NASB and although I'm not particularly  trilled with this version I can always use my Geneva or 1611 KJV Bible for the Bible Reading itself for the verses that I don't agree with the translation.
