How Do You Pick The Best Home School Curriculum?
With public school looking more and more like a battle field and less like a place of higher learning, parents are turning to alternative methods of education. Home schooling has become a very popular option. One of the hardest decisions a home schooling parent can face is what curriculum to use for their children. There are literally thousands of choices out there not to mention making up your own. So, what is a parent to do? Here is a little help. Get the book. One of the best pieces of advice I received when I first started homeschooling, was to pick up a book called “100 Top Picks for Homeschool Curriculum” by Cathy Duffy. This book is an invaluable resource that every home shooling parent should have at their fingertips. It really helps you hammer out what kind of homeschool YOU want to run. Each child is different and each parent is different. What works for one parent might not work for another and what works for one child, much to our dismay, does not always work for the other.
