Question for Home Schooling Kids
#4
Agree with what others have said ...
less expensive than private school, but more than public school
save $ by reusing for multiple kids and reselling
lots of free/inexpensive resources out there, especially for the younger years

Another option we have used is book-sharing with another family. We each have some materials that we've traded back and forth over the years. It has worked well for us because our kids are staggered.

A great website to check out is:
Cathy Duffy Homeschool Curriculum Reviews

She reviews a lot of curriculum. She does a good job describing the curriculum as well as explaining what types of learners and teachers it might work well for.

When I am looking for new curriculum, Cathy Duffy's site is my go-to. Then, when I have narrowed down my choices, I will go to a convention to view the material in person to make my final decision. IMO the problem with going to a convention unprepared is that EVERYTHING looks so good. That's when people spend a boatload of cash unnecessarily.

Have fun as you research the opportunities!
