Choosing a Curriculum

school-books.JPGIt is that time of year when homeschool families are searching and planning for the curriculum they use this next school year. In my case, it will be a revamping as we will focus on what worked for us this past year, and make changes to what didn’t work as well.

I am going to take a more eclectic approach this next school year. I am going to be taking the best of several different curriculums and meshing them into one solid plan. By doing this, I am ensuring that the boy will get what he needs. I have at my disposal, the best of the best. I have been searching and planning for this all during this past year. My hope is that he will progress even more than we did this past year, which was a lot.

Over the next several days, I will be discussing the many different curriculum choices that are available to us as homeschool families. I want to give the pros and cons of these as I see them. My hope is that we can learn about the many options together and make informed decisions about what is available for our own homeschools.

What is your favorite curriculum? Why did you choose it? What are the pros and cons, if any, of using it? Leave me a comment and let me know what you think or want to know more about.
