Need Help Finding Resources?

At the present time I have no plans to evaluate specific home school programs. There are many websites and blogs far more qualified to handle that task than I. From time I will discuss specific curriculum materials and you will see advertisement for products. However, if you have specific questions or interests in curriculum materials or strategies that you can not find answers to please feel free to leave a comment in the curriculum section you are searching or on this blog entry and I will do my best to help you find answers.

I make the same offer to teachers and parents who do not home school. If you do not find the materials you are searching for please leave me a note in the comment section describing what you are looking to find. I make no promises but I will do my best to help.

In conjunction with my other writing projects I am continuing to find new resources and material for articles. You will see this in updated links on the curriculum pages and new articles that appear. It is always helpful to know what people want and need as well.
