Preschool homeschooling?
|
Question:
Does anyone have any web links to homeschooling programs that offer
Christian preschool curriculums?
Answer: What are you looking for in a Christian curriculum? You have to be
careful when looking for such a curriculum, screen them very well.
Many (not all, I'm sure) of the Christian curriculums are extremely
fundamental. One of the problems with that is that if you compare, say,
a fundamental CoC curriculum with a fundamental Pentacostal curriculum,
you'll run into the same differences you run into when comparing the
differences in those denominations politics.
I'm not sure where A Beka lies on that spectrum, but I know I don't like
their curriculum. I used it for a year, when I was teaching in a
private, Christian, correctional facility. The math texts have no
logical sequence to the lessons. The science texts teach that humans
are not mammals. Based on those two things, I wouldn't ever use A Beka
books.
