Homeschooling Downunder
Home Education Resources
for Australia and New Zealand
that save you time, money and stress.
When you are new to homeschooling it is often hard to filter through all the different options you have for homeschooling. Where should I begin? What homeschool curriculum should I use? What homeschool philosophy is right for me? There is so much to absorb!
I used to think the best option was to present new homeschooler with all their options so they could make an informed choice. Now my views have changed slightly. I still believe in giving choice but I also believe that new homeschoolers benefit when you give them a guideline to work from. They can then get "the show on the road". After their confidence builds then they can start to tweak it to suit them.
I've written these curriculum guides with an Australian or New Zealand homeschooler in mind. If you are a new homeschooler please use my scope and sequence as a place to begin your curriculum journey—a springboard for your own ideas and not as a strict curriculum. After some trial and error you will work out what is best for your children and family.
If you are a seasoned homeschooler I hope these suggestions will inspire you.
