About Me {Becky Spence}

First and foremost, I am a daughter of the King. I am also a homeschooling mama with four little blessings. My kids all have “code names” that I sometimes use on the blog. ALuv is 11, NJoy is 8, MBug is 6, and NSis is 5. {Yes, I need a new family picture!}

Before having children, I was a classroom teacher, both in the private and public school setting for 6 years. I got my M.Ed. in Elementary Reading and then had my first son. I began tutoring K-5 struggling readers privately out of my home until having NSis (2012).

I did not plan on homeschooling {I actually said I’d “never” homeschool, but the Lord called me to it in 2009}. Update 2015: My oldest son, is attending a private school near our house that caters specifically to children with learning differences.

Homeschooling was a bit lonelier than I expected. So in 2010, I started blogging as a way to share ideas with other parents, teachers, and tutors.

I never dreamed that God would use my blog in so many ways. I have been able to use it as a platform for writing curricula, authoring books, creating learning apps, and speaking at homeschooling conferences and MOPS groups. Through my blog, I have shared many articles, activities and free printables.
