Christopherus Homeschool Curriculum Review

Structured guidance. Academics with practical skills. Christopherus homeschool curriculum offers a complete and customizable Waldorf-type education. My family has been very pleased with the Christopherus homeschool curriculum. We've used the preschool/kindergarten guides for three years and are now halfway through the first grade curriculum with my eldest child. I've liked all the materials thus far and am planning to use the second grade program next year. I like the curriculum because it's...

When did you begin home schooling? | Online colleges degrees

What age do you think is a good age to start home schooling?

You can start getting homeschooled in 7th grade highschool sounds better like 10th grade

Learning to socialize, share and play with other kids is a very crucial part of growing up. Homeschooling may hinder this growth in a child.

For all of you saying that homeschoolers have doctorates, I went to public school my whole life and have a post doc degree. The best part is I can socialize with my peers easily. Going to school is not just...

Homeschool Workbooks

Some families use homeschool workbooks and some do not. Those families that use workbooks can't imagine life without them. How do you know if you "get it all done" they might say.Although I would love to be the creative type that uses notebooking, lapbooks, or unit studies every day, I must confess that we have used some workbooks along the way. I always say that just because a child has filled in a workbook, doesn't always mean they understand or remember any of the material in the book.It's...

The Homeschool Mother's Journal | The Traveling Praters

In my life this week… I feel like I’m finally getting back on track after our surprise move. It has been one crazy month!  It has been really wonderful to catch up with family and friends here in Ohio but I have to admit that I really miss my Alabama friends. I also miss some of the “luxuries” that I’d become accustomed to in a larger city- like grocery stores that don’t close at 10:00pm or the amazing thrift stores that were minutes away. Getting used to small town living once...

Affordable Homeschooling

Homeschooling doesn't have to be expensive. Affordable homeschooling isn't very difficult if you know where to look. I have included many of the inexpensive homeschooling ideas that we have found useful and effective.When we first started homeschooling, my son was bored and was rapidly losing all his enthusiasm for learning before we pulled him out of Kindergarten. This turned out to be an advantage in that I didn't worry whether we were doing enough. We spend the rest of Kindergarten just...

Is my child being deprived of socialization because of home ...

some friends comments that i am depriving my 4 year old child of social interactions w/ other children… what do u think home schoolers?

i do not like the idea of home schooling because once they get out in the real world, they are inexperienced. consider sending your child into public school. plus, when he or she grows up, they’ll be missing out on tons such as friends, rebellion, and other things that go on in a regular teenager’s lives. you might think that doing this is the best, but...

Calvert Homeschool

Since 1905 Calvert School has been supplying homeschoolers a finish package- one year of curriculum covering all subjects. Previously I hadn’t even considered their company for two reasons: cost (one time fee of over $600) and my control over materials: a parent has no control over the selections for subjects.

This year Calvert started out supplying a payment plan which would cause it is cost to be similar to what we budget for now, when we deliberate and choose our texts. So with the cost...

Modern Day Ozzie and Harriet: Calvert School 8th Grade Review

I cook, I sew, I homeschool my youngest boy...my beloved and I run our business from home. After more than 30 years of marriage, life is just about perfect. This is our corner of the world.

My little Ryan starts High School tomorrow! *sob* Don't tell me a 14 year old who's 6'3" isn't little. You'll make me cry. *sob* Ryan finished eighth grade with Algebra I in June. There's no doubt that Algebra was the hardest thing to teach, made even harder by the fact that he really doesn't like math....
