If you missed Amanda Bennet's interview in August - don't miss this week's encore interview! Amanda has written over sixty homeschool curriculums and is perhaps busier than even I am. (Is that possible?) Plus she's a total hoot! Hear how she got started homeschooling, how she made it her business and learn a little about the woman behind the whirlwind
who is Amanda Bennett! Join us on Thursday at 3:00pm Central.About Amanda: Amanda Bennett is the author of more than 60 books, popular conference speaker, wife and homeschooling mom of three. She has had quite an interesting journey in life so far, from receiving her degree in engineering, to working as an engineer and professional researcher, to eventually going home to raise their three children. She has learned about parenting the hard way – practicing on their children and remembering that a sense of humor is an important survival skill. Her story is full of ups and downs, just like yours.
With more than seventeen years of homeschooling experience, Amanda has a wealth of tips and ideas to share and encourage homeschooling parents. Two of their children have finished college, one is a veterinarian and one helps manage their family tree farm. Their youngest child is still being homeschooled through high school, and life at their house is never boring.
Her groundbreaking unit studies have become very popular with homeschool families around the world. Amanda’s new Download N Go unit study/lapbook series, published by The Old Schoolhouse, has been a huge hit with the K – 4th grade crowd. As a result of her unique and effective unit studies, Amanda travels to speak at conferences and retreats, sharing tips, ideas and encouragement to help others along the way.

“While I have learned so much about teaching children in these years of homeschooling and writing, I have also stayed busy trying to learn how to live, love, and be the parent that the Lord had in mind. Writing these studies is a labor of love – one that I can’t believe that I get to do day after day. I write to help children discover His creation and sense the wonder and excitement that learning offers. I write so that children can know what it is to anticipate days of learning adventures!” Amanda Bennett

“I had researched styles and decided we wanted to try a unit study approach but I had just thought along the lines of studying one particular 'topic' at a time and incorporating different academic subjects.Using the Download N Go has given me a better insight into how different unit studies are from text books. My boys did not do a huge amount of 'book work' learning but discovered and learnt sooo much!” ~Tracey Wickland, England
