Arrow pointing right

Our story began with the idea of bringing homeschooled students together online to read and discuss literature. We wanted to launch a business, but it turned into something more.

We created a thriving community of like-minded home-educating families filled with real kids with an alphabet of diagnoses between them.

We teach the curricula: Exploring the World through Story. It is a secular world literature curriculum for grades K-8+, integrating expository writing, literary analysis, and memory work.

Maybe you’ve tried online classes, and your neurodiverse student couldn’t sit still or was bored by the lecture format.

We Are:

Reader response-centered

  • Guided primarily by student insights and questions

  • Structured for student independence, responsibility, and ownership

  • Flexible and fluid; never look the same twice

  • Part of a balanced literacy program

We Aren’t:

Teacher- and text-centered

  • Guided primarily by teacher- or curriculum-based questions

  • Unstructured, uncontrolled “talk time” without accountability

  • Tied to a prescriptive “recipe”

  • The entire ELA curriculum
