mystika1 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Well today I feel like I hit the jackpot! My local homeschool resale shop is giving away everything that was left on the shelf. They are closing down. For the most part, we prefer unit studies. I came home with the following curriculum and I can't decide what to use::confused: Weaver Volume 1 and 2 Volume 1 Grade 7-12 supplement Greenleaf Guide to Ancient Egypt(my oldest loves Egypt) Adventures in My Father's world Manual with schedule. Moving Beyond the Page concept 3 Culture(TM and Student Pages) Moving beyond the Page concept 2 Measurement(TM and Student Pages) I am currently using Konos but really don't like the layout at all. I don't mind planning. I have heard good things about all of these curriculum. Given my kids ages..what do yoiu all suggest? Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessieC Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I am enjoying MBTP with my almost-7yo. What ages did you get--look like 6-8? Your 9yo might like the Culture unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessieC Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Yes, it was the 6-8 Penny There are some trade books that go along with the MBTP units, but some you should be able to get at the library--and others can be replaced with the ones the library does have--like the books about different countries. I think the material would be too much for a 4yo, but you can edit it for a 9yo and I think she will like it. There is a Cinderella unit in the Culture book that goes through different "Cinderella" stories from around the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewingmama Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I'm jealous that you got MBTP - if you like Unit studies you should definately try that. We like Unit studies to and I'm just about to purchase MBTP for us for next term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystika1 Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 I have other TM's for MBTP but will have to purchase the Student Pages to go along. Honestly, I am so sorry that this place is closing, but I will be forever thankful for the wonderful free items I received today.
