September 8, 2006, Newsletter Issue #143: Choosing a Curriculum
1
Tip of the Week
1 - Set your educational goals. Decide what you want to accomplish this school year.
2 - Make a careful homeschool curriculum match. Not only to your child's needs, but also to your goals.
3 - Feel free to customize your curriculum. Your child doesn't have to fill out every page in every book. Supplement and strengthen your purchased curriculum.
4 - Evaluate your curriculum carefully. Make sure that it has those components needed to reach your goals. If it doesn't, see #3.
5 - Get a clue from your kids. Kids crying at the kitchen table are a great indicator of the need for a change.
6 - Don't write your lesson plans in ink. Schedules can change abruptly because of illness or other distractions.

Thanks so much for reading the the Homeschool Tips Newsletter.
The new 2006-2007 Sonlight catalog is hot off the presses! In addition to new educational resources, we've also made some significant improvements to our curriculum, such as expanded flexibility in Reader choices for Levels K through 2.
The catalog also provides several articles with helpful homeschool tips. For example, check out the "Top Ten Goals" article (pp. 146-147) which can help you think through your personal philosophy when it comes to homeschooling. And "Why we use certain books that some homeschoolers won't touch" (pp. 144-145), that gets into some pretty important issues about the content of books. And you won’t want to miss “27 Reasons NOT to Buy Sonlight”—a perennial favorite (beginning on page 148).
