Catholic Homeschool Curriculum: Catholic Heritage Curriculum

CHC is a very easy going Catholic homeschool curriculum. I love it because so many of the Catholic curriculum options out there are so overly focused on academics. CHC is a gentler approach that follows the Montessorri method. Its lessons plans are not a day-by-day type, but rather give suggestions on various subjects using its recommended books. My favorite book so far is Little Stories for Little Folks reading program. I have used other programs to teach my older children to read but LSLF is...  [more...]

Let's Talk About...Red Flags in Catholic Homeschool Catalogs

Homeschool conference season is upon us, leaving parents with bags of books and (hopefully) happy memories. But – ah! - a homeschool catalog is a horse of a different color. We can still peruse catalogs at our leisure, lingering over them in our favorite corner of the couch, gleaning ideas by scanning book lists and descriptions, and feel ourselves motivated merely by flipping through pages. A homeschool catalog, unlike a conference, is always waiting for us. A homeschool catalog holds a...  [more...]

Review of Catholic ABCs: A Catholic Preschool Curriculum

This book is not only great for homeschoolers (or those that are not planning to homeschool in the future, but just want a preschool curriculum for use at home), but it’s also perfect for teaching a preschool co-op class (or maybe a small class that is offered at your parish, for instance).  In order to make it even more accessible, I really loved that Lacy set up the teacher scripts in two different sections – one to use if you’re using it in your home and one to use if you’re using...  [more...]

This was great - and oh so very true! One of the very reasons I homeschool as well. We have such a rich and wonderful faith - all of it - would that all Catholics make the effort to truly learn the depth and riches (and yes, even the "hard" lessons) of the Catholic faith - and then pass these teachings on to their children! Blessings and peace to you! ~LuAnne

Southern Fried Catholics: Homeschooling Planners

So planners seem to be a big deal in the homeschooling community. Not only to keep us on track, but also to help show the work that has been done (our records). This morning, Angie over at Many Little Blessings wrote on how she creates her planner. I thought there were some great concepts in her book.

While at the IHM National Conference, I saw these From Family Centered Press:

I really liked that they would incorporate the Daily Planner and the Lesson Planner and the Menu in one book!! I...  [more...]

Margaret Mary Myers: Appendix of The Catholic Homeschool Companion

Back to the Appendix itself, it also includes listings of magazines and websites, as well as resources for...  [more...]
