Luke has been studying American History for the past year, and recently completed a unit on songs from the early 1800s. He enjoyed learning about the history of songs he's heard about frequently, and the lyrics so he can sing more than he hums. We jumped at the chance to review
Experience History Through Music by Diana Waring. Having heard about her work from other homeschoolers, I knew we wouldn't be disappointed. We dove right in when we received the books! Some are enjoying just reading the history and listening to the included CDs, while Celia and I have been picking out the songs on our violins. We can't wait to bring you our review at the end of June.
To celebrate the release of Experience History Through Music, I am joining members of the Diana Waring Launch Team for an amazing giveaway. Friends of Diana have joined in and as you can see, someone's homeschool is going to be greatly blessed!
