On the same note….
I’d also love to hear homeschool book recommendations. Name and author would be great, some info on it’s focus would be wonderful, personal review would be spectacular.
Honestly, I haven’t picked up a homeschooling book in a while and there’s always new ones out there. Please let me know what’s good.
BTW, the talk is on the 18th of Sept.
TIA,

Home Learning Year by Year: How to Design a Homeschool Curriculum from Preschool Through High School
by Rebecca Rupp — hands down, my favorite homeschooling book
Year by year lists of what should be covered in every subject. Excellent book recommendations.
The Complete Home Learning Source Book: The Essential Resource Guide for Homeschoolers, Parents, and Educators Covering Every Subject from Arithmetic to Zoology by Rebecca Rupp
hands down, my second favorite homeschooling resource
Lists of books, videos, computer games, magazines, you name it under each *specific* subject. It’s one thick book and an invaluable resource to me.
The Well Trained Mind
No review on this one except to say she chooses quality stuff.
Rainbow Resource Catalog.
As for websites, I haven’t read anything other than blogs and/or TWM site so I’m not up to date except…http://homeschooling.about.com/ Lots of info there. (My classroom photos are posted there) Tons of links, ideas, helps.
