A revised and updated edition of the perennial
bestseller that sparked a home school movement.
Since its original publication, this
now-classic guide to taking charge of your child’s education has been the
number-one resource for parents and students who home-school―or want to
supplement a classroom education. Veteran home educators Jessie Wise and Susan
Wise Bauer organize learning around the maturing capacity of a child’s mind and
define the three stages of learning: the elementary school “grammar stage,” the
middle school “logic stage,” and the high school “rhetoric stage.” Using the
book’s detailed recommendations, any parent can instruct a student in reading,
writing, history, geography, mathematics, science, foreign languages, rhetoric,
logic, art, and music―from kindergarten through high school.
This newly revised edition contains expanded curricula recommendations, gives access to a new supplemental website with additional resources, answers questions about home education, and provides advice on vital practical matters such as working with your local school board, preparing a high school transcript, and applying to colleges.
