Curriculum

When it comes to curriculum, you literally have hundreds of options to choose from.  This can be quite overwhelming, especially when you are starting out.  So, my hope is that the below categories can help you navigate the myriad of choices and find what works well for you and your kiddos! 

Remember, there is no perfect curriculum, so don’t let perfect get in the way of better.

Cathy Duffy This is a well known curriculum review site.  Anything with an apple by it is a top pick.
Rainbow Resource These charts are a great tool to narrow down which cirriculum options to consider based on grade level and parental involvement.
Rainbow ResourceOne of the biggest homeschool curriculum sites around. 
I recommend ordering hard copies of their catalogues. 
They also offer free shipping on orders over a certain amount of $.
Christianbook.comHave sales regularly and competitive prices.
Easy Peasy This is a completely FREE curriculum, created by a Christian Homeschooling Mom.  It’s a bit convoluted to use at times, but hey it’s free! For $15/year/child you can use their tracker to know where each child is in each subject, your older kids can use it independently.
