The key to successful home education, homeschool veterans will tell you, is determining your educational philosophy and marrying it to your child’s learning style. Then you can make an informed decision in choosing the right educational curriculum for the child. This is the formula for success.

Cathy will give you her top choices from every subject area, approaching everything through a Christian worldview perspective. This book is a critical volume for the homeschooling community.

Summary: Great Book if you're starting to homeschool...
Comment: I read a lot of the reviews for this book. All of the negative reviews focus on the feeling of being misled and not realizing that the author is a Christian. She is. She focuses on Christian curriculum--BUT she is not as narrowly focused as many Christian curriculum books are. I appreciated reading her ideas about different subjects.

If you are not a Christian, Linda Dobson's books about homeschooling cover a much wider gamut of homeschooling approaches and curriculum choices. I would suggest looking her up, if this book is not for you. Linda Dobson, in particular, focuses a lot of unschooling methods and curriculum. Her books aren't for me, but they may be the right choice for you.

Homeschooling is so individual! I love this book and I recommend it to every friend who is thinking about homeschooling, because Cathy Duffy addresses your philosophy of education in the first section of this book. None of the reviews I read mentioned this. But, it is so important! It is the first thing someone has to put together when becoming a certified teacher and I think it is just as wise for every homeschooling parent--it will make curriculum choices so much easier!

Along with this book, I would recommend Help for the Harried Homeschooler, again a Christian book, for anyone considering homeschooling!

Summary: Couldn't be better
Comment: This book was just what I needed to think through the process of developing an educational philosophy and then choosing curriculum that fits with one's philosophy and family needs. While I don't have my own children whom I am educating, I am in the position of helping other families do just this, and was so thankful to be directed to this resource.
