From Carla : Thank you so much for
your website! I am currently raising and homeschooling my grandson.
He's 8 years old. He's a great reader, but he lacks in spelling.
He can memorize spelling words for a weekly test, but forgets them
the next week. I am going to use your program, because I want to
incorporate the bible studies into the spelling lesson.

following biographies in our material:
Helen Keller and Florence Nightingale.

English textbook for Grade 1 which will be published by REX Bookstore.
One of my lessons aims to answer the question, "Who is a leader?" In

Florence Nightingale in the book that I am writing. I think this is
perfect material for my lesson especially at this time in our lives.

bilingual children.
From a Library/Media Specialist: I used the biographies on your site
for a second grade class here in the media center.
From a homeschool mom: Thank you so much. This website is a homeschooling
mom's dream come true.
From a special education paraprofessional in Ohio: I have been working
with ****, a
6th grade ADDH student. He is disruptive, loud, and almost refused
to do any
reading until I found your Boxcar Children teaching plans, and oh my!
He wants to read now; he even comes and borrows the book during the day when
he is not with me. It has made us both extremely happy and proud of ourselves.
Everyone at the school had given up on him, but I could see the spirit he has.
He asked me to teach him to read better, and my prayers were answered.
From a teacher: I just wanted to let you know that we performed the Patriotic Play
this morning for our students and parents. It was really a huge success.
From a teacher: Our performance of the Patriotic Play was wonderful.
The children did great and the parents were amazed. We want to thank you again
for the play. It is the talk of the town. It was a lot of work, but just seeing
the children shine was incredible and worth every minute of my time.
From a homeschool mom: This is the best site I have ever seen!
Thank you for your work and making it available to homeschool moms like me.
You have made a difference in our school and life.
From a grandmother: My 7 year old grandson read his first "chapter" book
this summer and it was The Boxcar Children, and now he wants to read them all!
I wish all teachers were as creative in their classrooms. Thanks again.
From a teacher: Thank you so much for your Literature Units.
Yesterday one of my students asked for the web address so she could complete
the worksheets at home. She borrowed "The Titanic" from me so she could
complete the units independently. I was so thrilled!
From a college student: I am a K-8 Teacher Certification major and have used
some of the items on this website to develop lesson plans.
From Florida: To say that I'm "Bulletin Board challenged" is an understatement.
I cannot thank you enough for the many creative ideas!!!
