And it can be customized to work within any state requirements. There is a great RC yahoo group that offers tons of help to each other.

You could try to look for infant's books and bibles with tons of pictures; children like that! You can also check the curriculum for a local Christian school for pre-schoolers and get some great ideas. There are also projects you can find in oriental trading catalogues centered on Christianity that you can do with your daughter. She may not understand ALL of it, but believe me, she will absorb everything over time and learn to love God and love learning. Great idea! :) I don’t think it’s ever to early to develop a child’s mind! You could try to look for infant’s books and bibles with tons of pictures; children like that!

I have had a horrible experince at public school, and me and mother think it would be best to remove me from the school. It would really help if I had some kinda help with finding a good, cheap (VERY LOW BUDGET) homeschooling system that goes along with our states guidelines: Homeschoolers in Tennessee may choose one of three options. (1). Register with the Local Education Agency (LEA) as independent homeschoolers. Parents must have a high school diploma or a GED; if homeschooling a high school student, a baccalaureate degree or a waiver is required. The LEA does not provide curriculum, does not have the authority to inspect the home or approve the curriculum or schoolwork, and only requires some basic information. Attendance and instruction is required for 4 hours per day for 180 days. Testing is required in 5th, 7th, and 9th grades. Certain subjects are required in high school. 2. Register with a Church Related School (CRS). Under this option, parents report only high school students to the LEA, must have a high school diploma. A baccalaureate degree to teach high school is not required. There must be 180 days of teaching but curriculum, hours and testing are determined by the CRS. The child in this option is considered a homeschooler. 3. Register with a CRS as a "satellite" of their campus and the child can be educated at home by the parent. Parents do not need a baccalaureate degree to teach their high schooler. Curriculum, tests, and hours of instruction are determined by the CRS, but 180 days of instruction is required. The child in this option is considered "privately educated." What is the best and preferably cheap Christian Homeschooling plan?

It's a great Computer based curriculum. No books required. Buy the subjects/grades you need, install, and after initial set up, the program creates your lesson plans, grades most of your work and maintains your grades for you. Just log in each day and complete your assignments. You can check it out by signing up for a free webinar. http://www.aophomeschooling.com/switched-on-schoolhouse/webinars.php?s=15&target=1 Wanna do the work online instead of purchasing the CDs, then look into Monarch. It's the same curriculum done online. http://www.aophomeschooling.com/monarch/webinars.php My boys ages 10-19 have used the curriculum since grade 3. My oldest graduated in June and is now in college. If you like the computer look into Switched on Schoolhouse.
