I’m answering your homeschool curriculum questions in this video. I start with more general curriculum questions and move to ones that are specific to particular curriculums.
Homeschool Curriculum Questions
Here is a list of questions that I tackle in this video. They are listed in the order that I answer them.
- Curriculum choices are overwhelming. Tips for how to narrow down choices and choose the best for my family.
- Do you have any go-to places to research curriculum choices?
- I watched several videos where you talked about how much you like SWR. Why did you stop using it?
- Lots of posts about BJU math. Do you like it better than MUS now?
- Why aren’t you using Veritas Press self-paced courses anymore?
- We are new to homeschooling. Should I go with a boxed curriculum for our first year?
- If a curriculum isn’t working for my family, should we switch in the middle of the year or wait until the new school year?
- Family style Bible curriculum recommendations? (for mom, dad, and kids)
- What are your favorite phonics, spelling, and vocabulary curriculums?
- Looking into DVD options for high school. Any tips/tricks or advice?
- How much time does IEW’s Structure and Style video course take each day? Is it teacher intensive? I saw from someone that it takes up a lot of time watching the video and the parent usually has to be there to watch also. I was also considering EIW instead for that reason.
- BJU math. I read a review that their math is rigorous and takes their child a long time. I like the conceptual understanding of BJU math, but I was wondering if it would be a difficult jump from MUS to that.
- Does BJU Press math lessons take a lot of the teacher’s time or is it about the same as Math U See?
- Thoughts on the Good and the Beautiful curriculum?
