Tried and True Homeschool Curriculum (grades 3-8)

In grades 3-8, I change things up a bit and use a more intensive, yet still eclectic, variety of curriculum. If I have a 2nd grader who is reading well, I will also use the following instead of my basic, no fluff style I blogged about here . All of these lean toward student-led rather than teacher intensive. When teaching many children at varying ages during the day, student-led is the way to go, not to mention the fact that it helps to develop leaders, initiative takers, and strong work ethic among your children.

These are not your run of the mill curriculum nor are they the most popular or well known. I like to think outside the box and choose what works best even if no one has ever heard of it AND most importantly what works best for my children. This is going to be a series of posts starting with Kindergarten through Second Grade. So, without further ado, here's my list: (PS.

There is no need to overload them with an overabundance of curriculum or even for that matter, extracurricular activities. Let them play in the mud, color, slide down the banister. Let them have fun. They're 5 and not meant to be little adults, they're mean
