Good reference book

This is a good reference book for home schoolers, especially if you are nervous about covering all the topics. I used it a lot the first few years...not so much now.

Can't live with out this one

This book has served me for over 5 years now. I turn to it often and have recommended it to others more than I can count. The checklists for every grade are great to have on my shelf. The information in the beginning of the book is a great read and gives much encouragement to any home educator.

Mind-renewing read that leaves one focused on God, GREAT!

I feel I must share this and pass on what has been a blessing to me. After much contemplation and reasoning (excuses) children are older (5th & 7th), already have resources of this nature, do I really need another book like this, etc., I listened to my heart (and confessed again all the money I had wasted on curriculum out of fear) and bought this book The main reason it appealed to me was because of all the descriptions telling how it had been revised and expanded and included not so much what the state expects, but first and foremost what and how the Lord wants our families focused on and the biblical model of learning and the education of our children. This book is great!!! The bibliography is excellent-- I had already read some of the books and found more I would like to read, but Mrs. Scarlata has pulled all these resources together for a convicting, mind-renewing read that leaves one not only informed, but challenged and focused on the Lord for His perfect direction for our children-- their hearts and mind and education. If you've not yet been exposed to this kind of thinking, then this is an excellent resource to read. If you have already been exposed to this kind of thinking and the renewing and growing is ongoing, then this is an excellent book to read. I am blessed that I live in a state where achievement testing is not mandatory, but I still will have use and value for the evaluation lists. But even if you never use any of this information, the first half of the book which is what I have thus described is worth every cent. If you keep a list of items you either want to purchase or look at book fairs, etc., this is one to put on that list! If someone needs more information, I'll be glad to give it. Diane
