Cool! A curriculum meme!

Got this one from Drew over at Running River Academy.

1) ONE HOMESCHOOLING BOOK YOU HAVE ENJOYED

I enjoyed The Latin Centered Curriculum this summer. I know there are others.
2) ONE RESOURCE YOU WOULDN’T BE WITHOUT

Favorite Poems Old and New

3) ONE RESOURCE YOU WISH YOU HAD NEVER BOUGHT

All of the many math programs I tried before I found Math-U-See. This works so well for both my kids and me, I wish I had found it when we first started, oh so many years ago.

4) ONE RESOURCE YOU ENJOYED LAST YEAR

Latin For Children I cannot believe how much the children love this curriculum, and how much easier it is to let Dr. Perrin teach them than if I had to! I also liked Poems That Build Character. (You can find it at Rainbow)


5) ONE RESOURCE YOU HOPE TO BE USING NEXT YEAR

Elementary Greek I. A quote from Drew: "Fabulous language, fabulous program!"

6) ONE RESOURCE YOU WOULD LIKE TO BUY

The snazzy new Famous Men of Rome from Memoria Press (the Boy wants it for the pictures alone), Rosetta Stone (several languages), Tons of Teaching Company tapes. Oh, you said one resource. Silly you. :P

7) ONE RESOURCE YOU WISH EXISTED

A logic program that was either secular, or at least didn't count the Bible as an absolute truth. Flame if you must, but I would love this!

8) ONE HOMESCHOOLING CATALOGUE YOU ENJOY READING

Rainbow Resource Center. From cover to cover. I know, I know, but it is a classic, has a myriad of good reviews, and the prices are good.

9) ONE HOMESCHOOLING WEBSITE YOU USE REGULARLY

The Well-Trained Mind Curriculum and High School Boards


10) TAG FIVE OTHER HOMESCHOOLERS

I was going to say Laney, but I see she has just posted this. How about Miz Booshay, Amy @ the Foil Hat, Mindy, Crissy, and anyone else who hasn't done it yet and wants to!
