How else does it differ from a curriculum package?
Each subject book covers either Kindergarten through grade 8 or through grade 12 rather than requiring you to buy materials each year. Also, since kids work on their own paper, you can use the books with every child, every year. While there are activity ideas and teaching suggestions for using each book, daily lessons plans are not included. This is deliberate. It’s important to work with students at a pace suited to their particular needs. Teaching Tips & Techniques offers suggestions about lesson plans and schedules which includes consideration of a child’s age and learning style.
