tHomeschool Curriculum Choices...what do you use

[tobin123]

I have always used an very eclectic/unschooling style of schooling with our son but now i am leaning towards using some other books since he is getting older.This will make it easier on the both of us.I am thinking of using Math U See,Gamma,and then I am stumped BC I haven't used any thing else HELP

I have been looking at LIFEPAC,I would be using fifth grade and fourth grade books BC he is not at the fifth grade level in certain areas.He likes to use workbooks and hates

Reading!

Any advice on other curriculums or any of you all use the ones listed??

THANKSe

Thanks for those links.I have looked into Teaching textbooks but the only issue wit it that I see is the computer,we have a very slow computer so i feel that might not work.Is it all online or do they send you disks to work with???

Math U See is nice but didn't work with my headstrong DD. If you don't mind A christian based series we are thinking about BJU Press this year. We are holding off till the Homeschool Convention in May to order though.

Tobin how far are you from Fort Wayne? If you would be interested the Fort Wayne Homeschool Expo is coming up May 19th and 20th. You can get a hands on look at the different curriculum and get an idea for what you like. There are also a ton of helpful parents around to ask questions. They also usually have sales on the books.
