I will have to say before I found
Cathy Duffy I was swimming along in all the choices of curriculum just going
with complete curriculum sets that “guaranteed” successful learning. I spent
thousands of dollars on these curriculum choices only to find that they were
not a fit for me or my children. Like most new homeschoolers I had a fear that
my children would be missing some valuable piece of education if I didn’t go
with what seemed to be the “traditional” school route. I also found myself at
loss of how to plan and organize curriculum that didn’t come in a complete set.
Then one day while visiting a used bookstore I stumbled upon Cathy Duffy’s “Top
101 picks for Homeschool Curriculum”. Out of desperation, I purchased the book
and immediately took it home and began to pour over the pages. I finally had
found what I had been looking for. When
someone asks me what I recommend for a new homeschoolers curriculum, I
automatically refer them to Cathy Duffy’s “102 Top Picks for Homeschool
Curriculum”.
Not just
curriculum reviews…
The great aspect about “102 Top Picks for Homeschool
Curriculum” is that it is not just a book of curriculum reviews. Cathy Duffy
has also included valuable information on how to find your approach to education,
along with your philosophy of education and your child’s learning style. All of
which play an important role in finding the right curriculum. Even if you’re a veteran
homeschooler this book is a valuable resource to have on hand. I refer to my
copy every year before choosing Sweet Pea and Tutti Frutti’s curriculum.
