    Great video! I wanted to add my thoughts. We have used TGTB for 2 years now, level K, and Level 1 and we will be using Level 2 this coming year. I don’t use this curriculum to teach my child the Bible. I use the Bible to teach the Bible. We also love The Answers books for kids by Ken Ham. I will say that there are plenty of references of the New Testament throughout TGTB curriculum, whether it’s LA or Handwriting. TGTB has worked very well for us and my daughter loves it! It is affordable and it is easy for me to teach! We have used BJU Press for Spelling and it is great! I love that they incorporate the Bible in their workbooks no matter what subject, however buying an entire grade level for our family on one income would be very hard! It is a solid company though and I never rule anything out! Thank you for insight!!

    Thirty years ago I used Abeka. As I got futher along I did a lot of mixing of different things. We never did online anything. The best things we ever did was teaching typing, music lessons, team sports, and speech lessons.

    BJU does cost for accreditation. Since they are not a physical school but more of a printing press, they go through a third party for accreditation.

    We use the good and the beautiful for math, language arts and science and we love it. It is written by a Mormon, but she keeps it vague on purpose in the curriculum which I appreciate. I don't need my math and language arts curriculum to teach my kid theology! We have a separate curriculum for that where we can go in depth and I can teach them truth.

    To dip my feet in for preschool, I think I'll be dabbling with G+C and TGTB. And then once I get a feel for how he likes to learn and how I prefer to teach, I'll be doing even more research. Lol BJU press does look nice. And especially for math, the video lessons could be great! Haha

    What do you think about Christian Light Education? I’m currently full Abeka, but looking at other options and I’ve heard a little about CLE. Not sure how it stacks up though!

    • @killuaxkillua2384
      @killuaxkillua2384 26 дней назад +1

      I’m using Christian light for kindergarten and it is very simple, the subject aren’t really separated they’re combined into a single lesson being used together. I haven’t used it for any other grade levels and this is my first year but I like how it’s not hard to complete a lesson with a 5 year old boy who doesn’t want to sit still haha. I do find at least at first it could almost be used for a pre schooler. We’re several booklets in and my son already can count to 12 easily but this is very slowly and repeatedly introducing 1-10 so far. But if gentle, slow, and simple to teach us the goal with lots of simple activities and little stories with questions that have to do with God then I really do like that about it.

      Yes. My 4 year old is about to start thier K4 and my 6 year old is almost completley reading with his Grade 1 curriculum. You don't need to do much to set them up. Super easy. Just make sure they do the work :)

    Abeka also offers DVD options and you mention that you can use the BJU DVD’s over and over again. This is not quite true. When you choose the DVD option with BJU the DVD’s aren’t yours to keep. You are only renting the DVD’s and must be returned.
    It is also worth noting that Abeka also allows you to not have to sit down and teach your children. The quality of the information taught is excellent.

    • @howtohomeschool
      @howtohomeschool  15 дней назад

      Thank you so much for your comment. I didn't realize it was a rental situation. I'll definitely put that in my video. Really appreciate you catching that one and telling me. Someone else made the same comment. I'm actually a bit dissapointed you can't keep the DVDs. It seems strange. Can you keep them with Abeka? or is it a rental too?

    Oh man. This is my first year and I chose My Father's World. Now I'm nervous because you didn't even mention it in this video. Any recommendations for the Math and LA to add to go with it? My daughter is 11, was in AIG classes, and had ADHD.

    • @howtohomeschool
      @howtohomeschool  27 дней назад +1

      No, don't be nervous. There were plenty of good ones that didn't make the list. I think MFW is a good choice too. There are just so many good picks to go with these days that you can't pick them all. I think you can pick any of the ones on this list and just do their Math and LA. I use BJU for LA and Math and we like them. Masterbooks is great if they want to take it a bit easier too.

      MFW is a fantastic Christian choice. I noticed she didn’t include Memoria Press either, which is another fantastic Christian program. She probably had certain standards and too many to choose from is all.

      Yes, both decent options. I had MFW on my 2023 video...just went with slightly different choices this year. Having said that I'm put off all the craft with MFW, and prefer something with a video option. Also Sonlight is on the fence with creation/evolution issues which I don't like but others don't mind.

    I believe the good and the beautiful Math only goes up to 6th grade. I would say they talk about God enough, they sprinkle a few Bible verses here and there.

    • @howtohomeschool
