When you open your homeschool, one of the best things you can do is familiarize yourself with the methods used for teaching before choosing a curriculum.
One of the core teaching methodologies is the Classical Method. This one book will teach you all you need to know about how to implement it.
In The Well Trained Mind, Susan Wise lays a foundation for teaching your child how to think instead of what to think. She explains what the trivium is and how it follows the maturity of your child’s mind as he grows. You’ll find curricula and book lists, as well as advice for things that will come up in your homeschooling such as testing, preparing a transcript, and more.
