In 19 years of homeschooling, we’ve used a lot of different homeschool curriculum. Some we have loved. Some we have not. And more likely than not, some of my students liked a certain resource while others did not like that particular book. What follows is a list of curricula that I have used with one or more of my children that I would recommend to others. Some programs were better for my mathy kids. Some were for my son with learning difficulties. Please feel free to ask questions about anything you see listed on this page.
This is currently a work in progress. I will be adding links to my reviews and affiliate links if applicable.
