This was THE BEST decision we have made! The kids are loving it, and Fionna, who pretty much hates school, told me last Friday that she loved school. WOW!
Let me share WHY we love it so much...
1. It is super simple.
There are no manipulatives. I use the Unifix Cubes for math if I think the kids could benefit from visuals. There is no set schedule or teacher's manual for the entire curriculum. There are individual subject manuals, but again, they are super simple, and you can do more or add on to them whenever you please.
2. The history and science subjects are simple and easy to listen to for kids.
It's a page or two of reading and then some coloring. A great introduction to history and science for small children. The coloring pages keep them involved and coloring what we have discussed in the class helps cement the subject into their minds.
3. It fits perfectly into our family lifestyle.
My husband works rotating shifts, and we also have several church activities throughout the week. This curriculum allows us so much flexibility! The reviews at the start are great, and we can do several of them in a day...not just what the "manual" says (because there is no set schedule). My kids can do more of their book work on their own, which allows me to be able to load the dishwasher, switch laundry loads, or deal with naughty toddlers or teething babies.
So, I would totally recommend Christian Liberty Press to any homeschoolers looking for a simple, flexible, easy-to-add-onto curriculum. I am SO glad we switched!
