I have worked to make my website a clearing house of resources, gathered to help those with one student on their homeschooling journey, as well as for the new homeschooler.
I have written a bit about my family on my Bio page; photos are on the Family page. You can catch up with me on my Blog, although I can be remiss in updating it. I also have pages that show some of my various Artwork & Murals.
The Homeschooling Methods & Links page has the various homeschooling methods listed with corresponding links to help you in your research no matter how many students you have.
The Products page is about the book I wrote, as well as other resources that I have available for you.
I created the Homeschool Only One (affectionately called “HOOville”) message board so those on this journey with one student could network with others. Please feel free to join and start posting! I would love to talk to you! There will never be any pop-up advertisements as I see this message board as a ministry for you.
The HOO E-Groups page has a listing for email lists I have found that cater to the HOO'er. Some are specific to a locale, homeschooling or spiritual philosophy, and not open for anyone joining. Others are open to all and ask that spiritual/controversial discussions not take place on the list. There are even ones just for grandparents who are home educating grandchildren. Be sure to read over each one's rules and be courteous to heed them. HOO Links is a list of sites that I have found for those homeschooling only one with articles or pertinent information. If any of the links turn up bad, please send me an email with "HOO website issues" in the subject line. And likewise, if you know of a place on the web that supports those HOO, and I don't have it listed, please email me with the link! Thanks!
The Press Room page contains images for you to use to link to my website, as well as press releases. I am currently working on reviewing some homeschool books/materials and on the My Reviews page will be thouse. the page entitled Christianity has an essay I wrote pertaining to my own feelings aobut the Christian faith.
I moderate a homeschool support group called Homeschooling Life, which is open to all homeschoolers. The link will take you to the Facebook Page for this group. (It is set up under LifeChurch.tv's organization, but you don't have to be a member of LIfeChurch.tv to join it.) The Facebook page will give you all the particulars.
A message board for those who homeschool only one.
I am currently in process of tweaking and checking everything on my website, Most things should be working, but please give me a bit of grace as I finish the process. Thank you!
My Café Press store is open for business, so feel free to browse and see some of the designs I have for you! There are a few other designs waiting to be uploaded, so be sure to check back! If you would like a particular item, let me know and I will set it up so you can order that item with the design of your choice on the item.
I write a weekly Friday column for the site: Homeschool Blogger.com (The Old Schoolhouse magazine's folks). You’ll find my column posted On the Company Porch webpage, along with other Monday through Friday columns. They're all informative and fun, so check it out! Or you can read my archived columns on their own, as it's a separate link on the drop-down menu.
Eclectic Homeschool Online Reviews posts Larrisa McKay’s extensive review list. This link is a drop-down window also: it gives you the site where a lot of material over the years have been reviewed, as well as a link to the review that was posted on my own book.
Message boards can be a great place to connect and network with others. I have a few that I like and can recommend. And lastly, Security Tango is a great site to help you keep your computer safe.
If you scroll on down this page, you'll find other links that I've thought were helpful for others. (I'll be adding those in within the coming weeks, as I need to get the website up and functional as soon as possible.)
I hope you find information useful to you as you home educate your child(ren). Most of the links do have to do with "homeschooling only one," but several of the pages/sites can be helpful if you have more than one child or if you are a new homeschooler.
I'm glad to help you along the way here. Contact me if you have problems or questions, and I'll help if I can.
