Home Schooling Curriculum – It's Your Choice – Be Sure To Choose Well
Finding the Right Curriculum
When choosing a curriculum, you need to keep in mind your teaching style and the learning style of your child. Some children work best with a lot of structure – others don’t. Some parents will find that a specific method works across all subjects – others won’t. In the beginning, you may not find “the” right answer for your child. You will have to pick something to start, based on your understanding of you and your child, and then you will have to experiment a bit.
Keep in mind that you ALWAYS have the option of making a change. If something you are doing is not working – then stop and do something else. Unlike a public school, you do not need to go through a committee and have it approved! You simply see that it is not working and make a change. Sometimes the change can be quite small, like allowing more freedom of choice for daily activities, and sometimes it can be quite large, like a decision to quit using a particular curriculum. Either way, the choice is yours!
There are three main curriculum choices available to you as a homeschooler.
