For those who care, we have added a few new emojis to the end of the list.  The last one is not resizing properly and I can't figure out why, so for now I'm just leaving it too large.



This change was requested by our AO Teens (AO Students) here on the forum.

Hello, I am wondering if anyone has prepared a very user friendly, readable, printable master booklist? 

I am a person who uses my phone to access the internet, no computer with internet access at home. Using this website on my phone is very challenging for me, as I am an admittedly notorious bad technology user. I have a difficult time trying to figure out where a particular book might fit into the curriculum (or whether it does at all). 

For instance, if I were to try and figure out which year my copy of D’Aulaire’s Greek Myths would fit, I’d try typing it into the search bar, and follow the duck duck go link to a whole lot of nothing. 

I have a printout of the OLD master booklist to help me keep track of our books. So for instance, let’s say I want to see where The Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich goes, I open my binder and start reading line upon line in minuscule print until I find it. 

There’s got to be an easier way! It seems like some computer savvy Ambleside user might have created a nice, intended for print, readable, PDF list (??? PLEASE???) 

Thank you!

How can I get access to working and single parents forum? Thanks, Friederike

Under science biography, the book Talking Wire by OJ Stevenson has a link to Amazon to purchase, but the book is out of print and unavailable. It is very hard to find. I thought were were going to have to miss out on it until I did an internet search and found out Living Books Press reprinted it. Is it possible to get a link to the reprint included on the booklist?

Thanks!

If you have a gmail account, I want to know if you are receiving emails from the forum.  Do you receive the subscription emails (if you turned that on in your User CP)?  Do you receive password reset emails (if you requested a reset)?

If you have a gmail account, it might help for you to add aoforum@amblesideonline.org to your address book.

Hi, 

I’m very new to CM and even homeschooling. AO website and this forum have been a huge help. However when I try to access the FB group, it always leads to an error: [font=system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif]This content isn't available right now[/font]
[font=system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif]Is the FB group down or I have not find the right link? I used the one in Resource/schedule. Or can someone just post the link to FB group? Thank you![/font]

On Thursday, December 21st, an episode of The New Mason Jar will drop that is all about the AmblesideOnline Advisory and the writing of the book "Six Voices, One Story: The Heart of AmblesideOnline." It was my great privilege (and weighty responsibility!) to represent all of us for this topic. We hope you enjoy it!

   

Our moderators will be taking a restful Christmas break from the forum from December 17 through January 1 (Charlotte Mason's birthday).  Our Facebook and MeWe groups will be closed from December 17 through January 7.  

You will be able to view posts but not make posts or comments during this time.

We hope that you will enjoy this time with family!  May God bless your home and your heart.

Hi, I can't seem to find how to edit my profile name, only email, is this possible to do? Thanks

I've noticed that when I hit 'like' on a post, the like turns blue, but when I come back to that thread later, it looks like I didn't hit 'like' (no longer blue, number of 'likes' is 0). Is that a glitch or am I doing something wrong? I'm using tapatalk but I believe I've noticed the same on the website.

I noticed that the NT readings scheduled in week 9 don’t seem to align with the weeks around them, and was wondering if this is an error in the schedule. Perhaps a holdover from before the Bible reading update that took place this year?

If there is a better place to submit this, please forgive me! I couldn’t find an email link so settled on the Forum.

Thanks so much for your help.

It's here!

We are thrilled to announce that our book, "Six Voices, One Story: The Heart of AmblesideOnline" is available at Amazon.com in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle (audible yet to come). This book is written by the AmblesideOnline Advisory: Donna-Jean Breckenridge, Lynn Bruce, Wendi Capehart, Karen Glass, Leslie Laurio, and Anne White. It's the story of how we created AmblesideOnline and how God nurtured our friendship and continues to sustain us through over twenty years of working together.

The AmblesideOnline Advisory began as a band of mothers who followed God and the vitalizing ideas of Charlotte Mason, and who along the way were blessed with an enduring and extraordinary friendship. Six Voices, One Story: The Heart of AmblesideOnline tells how this free curriculum was created, and shares our heart for "education for all."

We pray that this will be a blessing in your life. Thank you for being on this journey with us.

Hello, 
When I try to join a forum I get a msg that says I am not authorized to view this content. Do I need a separate registration for the AO Forums? 
Thanks,
Karl

Did you know that AO has a YouTube channel?  We host a few videos of our own there, and on the Community page we link to other videos that we think would be helpful.

I recieved a message on here from someone and when I try ro respond it says she has her private messages disabled. I don't want her to think I am rude and just ignoring her. Maybe she doesn't know her messages are disabled. Is there a way to reach her?

Hello!

I have been on the forum since its inception. I needing to unsubscribe to many of the posts. Is there a way to unsubscribe to everything all at once, and then be able to go back in and find the subforums that I want? And even the few posts that I still want to follow.

I am also planning to be much more careful about which posts I choose to follow.

Thank you!

Hi there,
I know there is an affiliate link to Amazon.com at the top of the forum. There are many Canadian users here, and I am one of them, who use Amazon.ca quite often but never Amazon.com. I'm wondering if it might be possible to set up an affiliate link to Amazon.ca also? I personally would use it faithfully and I'm sure I'm not the only one. It would be great to be able to give a little back to contribute to the running of the forum.

Just an idea! 

I would really like for my kids to get started with this coursework. I am not seeing any links to get started. What are the steps to get the students set up and started with the curriculum?

Thanks

AO is offered as a gift; we don't charge any money to use it, or require anything from our users, but sometimes people want to know -- "Is there something I can do to give back to the AO community?"

You can type vintage Parents' Review articles!

These are magazine articles that Charlotte Mason edited and sent out to parents who were using her methods back in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many articles have been uploaded as page images at archive.org, thanks to Redeemer College, who has given us permission to post these articles in printable, searchable text for the benefit of the CM community at large.

Basically, you claim an article that Cathleen has posted at the top of this page. Unfortunately, you do need to be a member of the forum to access the page.

Pick whatever article sounds interesting to you. Cathleen has linked to page images of the article. Respond in that article's thread to let Cathleen know you're "claiming" that article so nobody is re-typing what's already typed.

Type your article into a plain text file (like Notepad). When you're done, paste the typed text right into the thread as a response, and I'll format it into html and post it to the AO website. I do go back and proofread all the articles . . . eventually.

If you'd like more specific guidelines, there are Formatting Instructions, but if you'd rather not get too detailed, typing is enough. I'm too slow a typist to make any progress by typing myself, but I can work with typed text pretty quickly and add any formatting or make adjustments.

We are currently working on Volume 15 (1904) and we hope to fill in all the volumes up to Volume 17.

You can view or read all of the Parents' Review articles that have been typed over the years by AO volunteers at our Table of Contents listing on the AO website.
