April 10, 2009, Newsletter Issue #274: Curriculum Choices

Tip of the Week

If you're a beginning homeschool family, even the thought of creating a curriculum from scratch could make you change your mind. Sonlight offers a comprehensive homeschooling curriculum called their First Time Core Package that includes a Pre-K through Level 5 home schooling program.

Aside from the fact that it's an excellent curriculum, the best part of this is that it lets you concentrate on teaching instead of planning lessons. And, because it's so complete, you don't have to worry about leaving anything out during the course of a year. The whole year is laid out in easy to understand plans.

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).
