In this archive episode, Carole Joy Seid reflects on the remarkable wisdom of Dorothy Moore, wife of Dr. Raymond Moore, two pioneers often referred to as the grandparents of American homeschooling. Carole shares Dorothy’s practical strategies—like building a strong daily routine and focusing young learners on Bible, nature, and hands-on work—became the foundation to her own approach as a homeschool mentor. You will hear stories of Dorothy’s discipline, frugality, Christian faith, and quiet confidence. Book recommendations and fun stories are also included!
