When I was told that one of the products that we would be reviewing was basically a ‘how-to’ guide for first time homeschoolers, I was a little concerned that I wouldn’t be able to ‘get into’ this review. I mean, I’ve been homeschooling now for 7yrs, what more can I learn about homeschooling? I was pleasantly surprised by how well thought out this product is....Terri Johnson really packed a lot of information into these lessons, but in bite sized chunks. Some of the topics they cover are:
1) The basics of homeschooling
2) Finding your philosophy of education
3) Organizing your space and schedule
4) Finding your child’s learning style and how to implement it into your home school
Some things that they also offer are:
1) Free samples of curriculums; downloadable forms, and organizational tools
2) Resources for other books that will help you to delve deeper into a specific topic
3) Website links
4) Ideas and suggestions from well-known homeschoolers and publishers
And so much more!
As a homeschooling mom to six children, I really don’t have a ton of time to be reading ‘how-to’ books. With Knowledge Quests’ Homeschooling ABC’s I didn’t have a problem with reading through the lessons because each lesson was short, but meaty in content.
There are 26 lessons and each lesson comes once a week, directly to your email. So you have a whole week to read and apply what you are learning to your homeschool. Along with the lessons, Terri has assignments for the parent to do, which really helps to reinforce what was discussed in that week’s lesson. The cost to join Knowledge Quest's Homeschooling ABCs class is only $10 a month for 6 months. That's only $2.30 per class session. That's a pretty good deal.
The creators of Homeschooling ABC’s have really thought these lessons through….there are so many tips packed into this product that even I have learned something from them (see you can still teach an old dog new tricks LOL). So, I would say that this product would be good for any homeschooler no matter how long you have been homeschooling.
