ChrisOR Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 The book that convinced me to homeschool was For the Children's Sake. After that, I read TWTM, Teaching the Trivium, and CM Companion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belacqua Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I'll second Rupp's Home Learning Year By Year. And while it isn't a book, I'll throw in this forum. I've learned a hundred times more here than from any book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanceXToo Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I like "The Unschooling Handbook, How To Use The Whole World As Your Child's Classroom" by Mary Griffith. I'm not actually an unschooler, but I am more of a relaxed homeschooler and I like some of the unschooling ideals :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heatherwith4 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I Saw The Angel In The Marble by Chris and Ellyn Davis I love this one, too! Also, it's not really a book, but the Rainbow Resource catalog is a must-have for me! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
