Anyone use Abeka?
Posted: Wed Jul 19, 2006 12:27 pm
This is our first year of homeschooling. Our boys have been in a private Christian school in the past. We are using Abeka and I am in the process of buying everything. My oldest son will be in 6th grade and my twins will be in 2nd.
I am wondering if anyone has used Abeka before and what your thoughts are on the Parent/Teacher Lesson Plan/Curriculum guides.
Did you purchase them? did you use them?
Were the guides helpful in planning your lessons or was it just as easy to just work lesson by lesson through the student texts?
Did you find they were geared more for a classroom teacher?
If you didn't purchase or use them, do you wish you had?
Just wanting some feedback and input before I go out and buy all the teacher/parent guides. I'm finding most of them at the local used curriculum store and on ebay, so they aren't that spendy, just don't want to buy a bunch of stuff I won't end up using.
Thanks in advance!
