In this extra-length episode of the Homeschool Journal, Carrie sits down with Cheryl Swope, author of Simply Classical and mother to two incredible special needs homeschoolers. Join us as we hear Cheryl's incredible story and dive into her experience as a mother of special needs kids. You'll learn how homeschooling, and the flexibility and confidence it can bring, allowed Cheryl to navigate the world of raising and teaching her kids, and provide her the experience to craft one of the most effective books on homeschooling children ever written. Check out Simply Classical: The second edition of this revolutionary book guides parents, teachers, and schools in implementing the beauty of a classical education with all children. Cheryl is an advocate of classical Christian education for students with special needs. The love of history, music, literature, and Latin instilled in her own children has created in Cheryl the desire to share her message that classical education offers benefits to any child.
