Buy for YOUR Unique Family
We are homeschooling in a great time.
Thats great news because each homeschooling family is special, unique.
We all have a unique approach and our kid have their own unique learning style.
Embrace it and things will go more smoothly in your home!
So even though your best friends family justlovesa certain curriculum, doesnt mean yours will.
Because we all have different homeschooling philosophies.
One is an unschooler and the other is a very relaxed Charlotte Mason.
So is my homeschooling approach better than theirs?
We just have different methods based on the fact that we are different teachers, teaching different children.
The variety is what makes us special to offering our children a unique view of life.
You may like the idea of a curriculum, but you may not have the time.
Perhaps you have a new baby or have to work outside the home.
These factors all impact our homeschools.
Even if you really want to do this fieldtrip based curriculum,be realistic.
Do you have the time to go to all the places involved?
Do you have the finances to pay for all the admissions?
Do you have the energy and ability to drag your 5 children to these fieldtrips twice a week?
Whats YOUR Style?
I can always add extra review and writing opportunities, but we like the repetitive natures of these subjects.
It works for us.
But with a very active toddler in tow this year ourChristian Kids Explore Biologywas a better fit.
Pray about it
I am aChristianhomeschooler.
The decision to homeschooler was largely influenced by faith.
Pray for His blessing on your family, children, homeschool, and your discipling of your children.
