School
Are you stumped about which curriculum to choose? Feeling like you need direction? Bored or frustrated with what you’re currently using? I am not an educational specialist who can give you great insight into what you should be using with your children. I can, however, tell you what we’ve used and loved. Maybe our choices can be a springboard for your own.
First and foremost, I should tell you that we employ the classical method, teaching according to what has been known for hundreds of years as the Trivium. Interested? The links below should be of great help to you:
Trivium Pursuit
Classical Homeschooling
The Well-Trainded Mind
Secondly, there are curriculum providers who carry exemplary classical materials. These are our favorites:
Area 127, with one of the nicest owners we know! If you can’t find what you’re looking for, call Jeannie and she will help you sort through all the great materials that are available to home educators.
Latin for Children – our favorite Latin curriculum
Veritas Press- complete Classical providers
Tanglewood School- complete Classical providers
Dick Blick- great art lesson plans and excellent prices as well
Cheap Joe’s- Another good resource for art and supplies online
My Lil’ Picasso- Craft Kits for Little Ones
Rod and Staff Preschool Workbooks
Picture Book Preschool- Simple, uncluttered, great books, a sweet nurturing time with your preschooler
Timberdoodle- General GREAT stuff! We’ve never bought a “loser” from them
Mystery of History- The most complete, chronological, Biblical history curriculum we’ve found. My kids love the Mystery of History and I have learned so very much about world history, Biblical history, and the history of the church and our faith
Apologia is a great science curriculum for the older student (junior high and up)
We have also liked Considering God’s Creation
