5.0 out of 5 stars How could this much information be squeezed into 388 pages?, August 6, 2001

By	"houseofanne@hotmail.com" (Colorado Springs, CO) - See all my reviews

I have been searching and searching to find just the right curriculum for my 3 girls, ages 3-9. I picked up this book and my problem about curriculum was solved! Ruth Beechick is sensible beyond measure by offering ways in which to homeschool in a very cost-effective way, while following Charlotte Mason's gentle methods of learning. I highly recommend this book to every homeschooling family who feels like they are a slave to their curriculum.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent in conjuntion with public school curriculum., November 6, 1999

By A Customer

We like the helpful and supportive attitudes of the author and feel like we have more control over our daughter's 6th grade public education. As a mother of a child with an auditory processing problem, this book addresses all modalities of learning and acceptance of different learning ways. All parents should read the section about math early on to learn how to help their children earlier. You will feel more hopeful for your child's education after reading this book although you won't ever really be "done" with this book! Also check out the books Learning to Learn by Carolyn Oliver and Rosemary F. Bowler and Every Child Can Succeed by Cynthia Ulrich Tobias

5.0 out of 5 stars No-Nonsense Approach, February 19, 2000

By	P. Gardner "Penny Gardner" (American Fork, UT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Ruth Beechick presents easy-to-implement ideas for the home educator. Her thoughts on living books, copywork, dictation, and writing merge effectively with the Charlotte Mason approach. (You will need to modify Beechick's approach to dictation slightly and let the child study the paragraph before proceeding with the dictation.)

This book will help you gain confidence in your abilities as a home educator.
