from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $27.17

Customer Review:
My wife and I experimented with this method in homeschooling one of our children. There is much to appreciate in Bauer's approach. I like the idea of tying everything to history: scientific advances make more sense when viewed within their historic context. However I would caution against following... more info

from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $16.95

Customer Review:
Susan Wise Bauer's WELL-TRAINED MIND (abbreviated WTM) is my primary reference as an "eclectic" homeschooler. It is a clear & detailed guide to Ms. Bauer's classical schooling regimen. We immediately purchased THE STORY OF THE WORLD (abbreviated SOTW), and its companion activity guide, when they... more info

We bought this to use with our daughter who just started fourth grade. We used the third grade version this summer and were pleased enough with it to give this one a try.

from Delta Trade Paperbacks
Price: $10.36

Customer Review:
Good for someone who wishes to have information in one place, but not a reasonable expectation of what every stereotypical fifth grader would learn in a given year.

Customer Review:
This book has completely educated me on what my eleven-year old son needs to know for his 6th year. I have read the book and can say that if everyone in the country knew everything in this book we would all be better off. As a matter of fact, I know very few adults that know one quarter of what is... more info

When I borrowed this book from the library I actually read it cover to cover. It is more than just a list of books. Rebecca Rupp has done exhaustive research.

from Grove Publishing
Price: $22.95

Customer Review:
This book is helpful to a certain degree, but I much prefer Mary Pride's books.
I appreciate Cathy Duffy's section on learning styles, but got frustrated at the layout of the book. It's not very easy to read. Not very user-friendly and the whole book is rather dull. Also, what I truly wish is... more info

from Three Rivers Press
Price: $15.37

Customer Review:
Montessori school can be unbelieveably expensive (approx. 500 dollars per 8 week sessions, and that's just half days!), and your child has to be "approved" in most institutions. Based on the teaching of Maria Montessori, it is designed to help toddlers and young children learn in five simple steps:... more info

For our two children, we have been using Core Knowledge Curriculum Textbooks. They are great a supplement to the learning they get at their school.
