The wonderful world of poetry is fun to explore, and most of us have many good memories relating to poetry in some way or another. Remember The Cat in the Hat, The Highwayman, The Raven, The Ants Go Marching, Paul Revere’s Ride, Jabberwocky, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Trees?
We’ve spruced up the looks of the site and re-organized some of the navigation, on our way to publishing the complete archives of Home Education Magazine online – that’s twenty-six years of published content – while we continue to broadcast timely news, great homeschooling resources, and plenty of valuable information from the HEM blogs.
