The following lists our recommended
books for each grade. You will not be
buying every book or only the books listed. Students have a wide variety of
abilities and aptitudes; schooling--especially homeschooling--needs to be
adapted to different children in different ways. Your advisor will work with you
to (a) match each child’s strengths and weaknesses to specific materials; (b)
combine your students in texts and subjects; (c) choose a religion, history and
science focus for the family for the year; and (d) weave materials you may
already have or would prefer to use into your family’s course plan.
Books and materials are purchased by the family from various sources;
provider names and addresses, order codes and prices are included in the program
packet. Costs for materials per child can range from $200.00 to $500.00,
depending on the grades levels of your children and resources already available
to you. Many of the materials are used for two or more years and most are
non-consumable.
