I'm wondering about something and hope to communicate it as best I can:tongue_smilie:
In comparing popular curriculum with various workbooks from Barnes and Noble I've noticed there is not a huge difference(if any at all). For example, we had been using Spelling Workout. We purchased Harcourt Flash Kids Spelling Skills workbooks and they seemed to have the same format and similar content. After not loving various grammar curriculums I purchased a Harcourt Language Arts workbook. My dc like it, I like it and it seems to cover all the content they need to know.
Is there something I am not noticing? Do the workbooks(Harcourt, Sylvan, Kumon) not cover enough?
