Both programs share something important: a belief that classical Christian education is one of the best things you can give a child. After that, they take two distinct paths, and understanding those paths is what this guide is about. We’ll cover how each program works, who does the teaching, and how to figure out which…

Both of these programs give you an app and something printed. The difference is which one is the program. Hooked on Phonics describes its own design plainly: the Practice Packs are created in conjunction with the App, and they let a child review the skills they have gained in the App. The app teaches. The…

Of the programs families weigh against Phonics Museum, Logic of English is the closest relative. Both teach explicit, systematic phonics. Both are multisensory, scripted, and full of games. Both are built by people who think the structure of English is worth teaching properly rather than papering over. Two things separate them, and they are the…

Start with the question that settles most of this comparison: does your child already know the alphabet? Not recognizes a few letters. Knows all twenty-six, upper and lower, by name, and knows the sound each one makes. The Good and the Beautiful’s Level K course is built for the child who can. Their own course…

Teaching a child to read is the highest-stakes thing most homeschool parents do, and it usually comes first. Before the history cards, before the Latin, before any of it, there is a five-year-old and an alphabet and a parent hoping very much not to get this part wrong. So if you have been going back…

Veritas Press. Apologia.

Apologia makes excellent science curriculum, and we’ve recommended it to our families for…

Veritas Press. Classical Academic Press. We’d like to be up front with you: we’re fans of CAP at Veritas Press. Veritas chose CAP’s Latin for Children for our grammar-stage Latin long ago and still carries it today. CAP’s Latin history readers are designed to pair with the Veritas history card series. Some of our families…

Homeschooling families share a conviction: an education that forms both mind and character is worth pursuing. Where they differ is in how they want that education delivered, and more often than not, the answer isn’t one format for everything. Self-Paced courses exist for the subjects where a student is ready to own the learning. They…

Veritas Press. Memoria Press. Both programs share something important: a belief that classical Christian education is one of the best things you can give a child. Both have been doing it for over thirty years. Both teach Latin. Both care deeply about the great books of the Western tradition. After that, they take two distinct…

Choosing a curriculum is a real decision. Reading descriptions and looking at scope and sequence documents can only tell you so much. At some point, you want to see how it actually works and whether your child will connect with it. Self-Paced courses are built for students who can work independently, without a parent in…
