Morning friends!
I hope you enjoyed your Christmas break and your first week back to school has gone smoothly. Getting into rhythm is sometimes hard but keep going with grace and enjoy this homeschool journey. You may have switched up a few subjects or even purchased some new curriculum and that’s okay! Each year I revaluate what is working or not working over Christmas break and make the switch if needed. One of my favorite places to look for curriculum is at the Ultimate PreK-12 Annual Membership from SchoolhouseTeachers.com.
If you are new to homeschooling, let me tell you that The Old Schoolhouse Company began almost 20 years ago when founder, Genz Suarez, started to sell used curriculum. It evolved quickly and now The Old Schoolhouse sells a best-selling magazine all about encouraging you along on your homeschooling journey. If you haven’t read one of the magazines, be sure to get a copy of the next issue!
SchoolhouseTeachers offers a wealth of curriculum including School Boxes, which are full curruiculum boxes per grade level, individual courses, lesson plans, and a vast video library. There is also a huge resource section that has a literacy center and areas for those with special needs. For the low price of $139/year or $16/mo (use code: START139 or START16) your whole family can partake in all the curriculum SchoolhouseTearchers.com offers. This pricing is only good until January 31st so be sure to check them out soon.
There are literally hundreds of courses and resources available on the site so you’ll be sure to find one that fits the bill for you. Not only does SchoolhouseTeacher.com offer all these great classes you also get access to:
~ Curriculum written from a Christian Worldview
~ Complete Scope & Sequences for PreK-12th grade
~ Customer schedule builder
~ A fully customizable yearly planner
~ Videos, eBooks, and printables plus a special parent eBook library
~ Literacy center
~ Printable certificates for your records
~ Grade reports, report cards, portfolios, transcripts and more!
We have been taking advantange of the science curriculum offered through SchoolhouseTeachers at each level for my children. Currently my Senior is using the lecture course for Apologia Advanced Biology from Red Wagon Tutorials while my 8th grader is also using the Red Wagon Tutorials lecture course for Apologia Physical Science. My elementary kids are using the science portion from the 5th and 1st grade curriculum boxes.
Navigating the site and using each of these courses is so easy! I love the flexibility that it gives for our family to have the material right at our fingertips especially since we are starting to travel for gymnastic season right now. My older two can navigate the course site on their own and know just what is expected of them with the lessons plans listed out. We are all pleased with everything that this membership site has to offer our family! I love the flexibility it gives us.
I don’t know about you, but I have already started thinking about next year’s courses for my kids. I will be down to my final three students and embarking on our 4th round of high school and SchoolhouseTeachers.com will be the first place I search for courses. Since the courses offered are full curriculum I can rest assured that the children are getting quality coursework for the year. But don’t just take my word for it! The entire group from The Old Schoolhouse Homeschool Review Crew is sharing their thoughts. Click on the banner below to see what they think of the Ultimate PreK-12 Annual Membership. I know you’ll be glad you did!
