I am a Christian but I wonder is it really necessary to purchase a Christian based elementary curriculum

Spiritual Growth in the Elementary Years

If your family is shopping for a Christian-based homeschool curriculum, it is important to research the different companies available and ensure you get a program that fits into your family's faith structure, academic goals and personal learning style.

Textbooks, workbooks, quality manipulatives, educational games and other academic materials need to be top-notch to enhance your child's education. Ones with a world view will prepare your children to be good citizens and care for people of all racial and cultural backgrounds.

Since most young children are unable to grasp abstract concepts, trying to explain to a young child that people all over the world live very different lives from the ones we enjoy here can be very difficult. Look for a curriculum that extends each child's awareness of his or her own place in the world.
