You're listening to Skalais Sisters, episode number 42.

Welcome to Skalais Sisters, the podcast for the classical homeschooling mama, who seeks to learn and grow while she's helping her children learn and grow.

Scalae Sisters is a casual conversation about topics that matter to those of us in the trenches

of classical homeschooling, who yearn for something more than just checking boxes and getting it

all done. I'm your host, Brandy Vensel. You can find me at Afterthoughts.

That's my main blog.

And also teaching reading with Bob Books, which is where I keep my line of printable phonics lessons.

You can hear more from me on my other podcast, Aftercast.

My co-hosts today are Pam Barnhill and Missy Winkler.

Pam is a speaker, podcaster, blogger

at Pam Barnhill.com, and author of the newly released book Better Together, Strengthen

Your Family, simplify your homeschool, and savor the subjects that matter most.

Misty is a second-generation homeschooler with five kids and too many projects.

She writes about practical classical homeschooling and organizing attitudes at Simply

Convivial.

This episode is sponsored by two new podcasts from the Close Reeds Podcast Network and the

Circe Institute.

We are very excited to introduce you to these.

So first, The Daily Poem, the brief podcast delivered every weekday morning,

featuring the best poems ever written.

Consider it an audio anthology perfect for morning time, the morning commute,

or while your toaster is doing its thing.
