We were saddened to learn of Ruth Beechick's death in late 2013. Ruth was a lifelong teacher, both in the classroom and as a curriculum writer. She was a mentor to the late Debbie Strayer, author of our Trail Guide to Learning series. Ruth's teaching philosophies heavily influenced Debbie's and helped shape the Trail Guide to Learning series. Ruth will be greatly missed. To honor Ruth and her contributions to homeschooling, we are giving away a copy of three of her books: The Three R's, You Can Teach Your Child Successfully, and Dr. Beechick's Homeschool Answer Book.

Be sure to use the Rafflecopter widget below to let us know that you’ve commented. Contest ends at 11:59 PM on Wednesday, February 5 and is open to U.S. residents only.

    I don’t know that I have read any of her books, though they have always been on my list to read.

    I have never read her books, but have heard bits and pieces of some of her philosophies from a homeschool group I frequent. I think the biggest thing I took is it is OK just to focus on the three R’s in the early years.

    I’d love a copy of the Three R’s book!

    I haven’t read any of her books, so would love to win this.

    We have been going through her Genesis book and I love how in depth she goes into a very important part of our history. I am not familiar with her other books or teaching philosophy.
