about the book |
The Homeschool Diner's Guide to Glossary of Homeschooling Terms by Julie Shepherd Knapp, copyright, 2006 School-at-Home Curriculum School-at-Home Curriculum consists of a complete set of materials designed to teach all subjects at a specific grade level. This usually includes teacher's guide books, lessons, worksheets, tests, and other activities -- everything needed to teach one child for the entire school year. This is similar to the approach used in public school, so it is often called "School-at-Home" and is often based on state educational standards, so it can also be called "standards-aligned" curriculum. If you want to re-create the public school environment in your homeschool, then this is probably the kind of "formal" curriculum you are looking for. You may buy complete packaged sets from curriculum suppliers, or you may create or pull-together your own curriculum using textbooks and online resources. Many school-at-home curricula are described in School-at_Home |
