Just as homeschoolers are breathing a sigh of relief because
a year of hard work is almost over and summer vacation is about to begin, it’s
time to make plans for the next school year. Thankfully, most of us regard this
as an exciting time because we are happy to be able to educate our own
children, and we are grateful for the abundance of curricula choices due to the
popularity of homeschooling.
After doing this for more than 20 years, I’ve got planning
down to a science. I know exactly what we’re doing and when, and I already have
my favorite publishers and books. When we were just beginning, however, we
relied on product reviews from a few trusted sources: Cathy Duffy’s reviews
(visit http://cathyduffyreviews.com/),
Dean and Karen Andreola’s (visit http://www.homeschoolhighlights.com/)
and Rainbow Resource (visit www.rainbowresource.com).
We buy most of our materials from Rainbow Resource because they sell almost
everything you could ever need, at a discount, and offer free shipping for
purchases totaling $50 or more.
