Home Education Guide

For a simple approach to homeschooling that addresses all the critical issues, Hewitt's HOME EDUCATION GUIDE is the key. It guides parents through the maze of how to get started - from philosophical foundations for homeschooling through time management & scheduling. Teaching strategies such as using learning modalities, unit methods, multi-grade teaching, & research skills are provided as well as suggestions for each subject. Division titles include "Home as School," "Scheduling," "Teaching Strategies," "Subject by Subject," "Special Needs," "High Achievers," "Secondary Education," & "Learning Objectives." A most valuable feature of this manual is its scope & sequence for kindergarten through grade eight. Core subjects (Language Arts, Math, History/Geography, & Science/Health) are listed with the goals & objectives for each grade. User-friendly, printed on 5 1/2 by 8 1/2-inch pages in tabbed divisions, this notebook brings together 260 pages of wisdom Hewitt's staff has collected during its 13 years of counseling home-schooling parents. We revised & added up-to-date information in this Third Edition in 1995.
