Curriculum is not too big a deal, especially for young children. <br /><br />Bob and I have five--16, 19, 21, 25, 28--and four grandchildren. We have homeschooled for 28 years and have helped homeschoolers all over the country most of that time.<br /><br />Here are a couple of my favorite quotes from Dr. Ruth Beechick, who has been a friend and mentor to me.<br /><br /><br />"Some educators question whether textbooks, even at their best, could ever do the job. ‘The very nature of textbooks is to present information that is predigested, prethought, preanalyzed and presynthesized’ says a school learning specialist. A steady diet of such books deprives children of the joy of original thought. It turns them off to learning." ~ Dr. Ruth Beechick<br /><br />"For some children and for some time, certain books will happen to be just right. But if you find yourself struggling to mold your child to a book, try reversing priorities. It’s the child you are teaching, not the book. Bend the book or find another; make the studies fit the child." ~ Dr. Ruth Beechick, You Can Teach Your Child Successfully<br /><br />Here is one of her articles to get you started.<br />“Simplify the Curriculum”<br />www.tinyurl.com/Beechick-SimplifyCurric<br /><br /><br />I look forward to hearing from you!<br /><br />God bless you and yours,<br /><br />Tina Farewell<br />www.BobandTinaFarewell.comTina Farewellhttp://www.bobandtinafarewell.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7617870828092319688.post-48564440492846399892011-10-04T21:44:31.095-07:002011-10-04T21:44:31.095-07:00Thank you Lyndsey!
