    Meet the Savvy Homeschool Moms (Ep 1, 5/5/12) May 21, 2012
    Show notes

    Tina and Beckie, Savvy Homeschool Moms, episode 1Meet the Savvy Homeschool Moms! Tina and I are so proud of our first podcast. Recording it was an adventure, and we look forward to sharing it with you, our listeners! Going forward our show notes will include links and contact information for all the resources we share with you. For this first show, the notes were a little more difficult, but here we go!

    This show covered why we decided to make this podcast, who we are, and why we homeschool and what to look forward to on future episodes of the Savvy Homeschool Moms Podcast!

    We mentioned one of our favorite websites, Khan Academy! An excellent resource not only for math (where it is a LIVESAVER!) but also for other subjects and topics of interest to the homeschool family!

    Another link from the show: Secular Homeschooling Magazine (Sadly, this magazine and it’s website, no longer exist, so we’ve removed the link.)

    Also we talked about where we can be reached on the internet, for your questions, and comments!
