I started homeschooling my 11 year old daughter 3 months ago. She’s been setup at the dining room table this whole time. I am in the process of getting a homeschool workstation and command center setup. Your tips and ideas are going to be very helpful. Thank you!

In reply to Leslee Hoffman.

I use Tapestry of Grace / Story of the World for my history curriculum for all my kids. Tapestry of Grace schedules the chapters of Story of the World as alternative readings so it works really well for my kids.

As far as science, you can use nature study for the bulk of your science until the kids are in middle school. There’s also the option of Elemental Science, Real Science 4 Kids, Christian Kids Explore, and Apologia. My personal favorite is the classic Elemental Science curriculum. It’s designed off the recommendations in The Well-Trained Mind.

I hope that gives you a starting place, Leslee! 🙂

What curriculum do you recommend for Science and History? Grades 1-9 Began reading the book HIstories by Herodotus as part of the Classical Christian curriculum and was surprised by the content.
