Discovery, that's what our journey of homeschooling is. I am learning that at the very beginning of homeschooling, a family tries and finds what fits your child's learning style. I am finding that N doesn't mind paper work every now and then. But then he really enjoys hands on learning, also.
Then I learned about another curriculum Robinson Curriculum. Robinson Curriculum is literature base learning, except for math, and is for K-12 levels. In my research of this, found A Squared Curriculum, http://www.accelerated-achievement.com/800books.htm#literature very similar to Robinson's Curriculum with some of the same books but more books, and these books are old fashioned books, books I've never heard of, probably seen them on some store bookshelf but didn't pay attention to them. So I decided to go around to the local used book stores today to search for some of these books: Bobbsey Twins, Tom Swift, the Rover Boys, none of the stores had them. Well, I found Tom Sawyer and bought it. I thought I would peak to see what the wording is like. Now, I am into the story. So anyways with this curriculum, one would need to be creative, also.
Have any of you used this curriculum? |
