Teaching your children doesn’t have to be complicated. With so many different curriculum choices and various teaching approaches, it can get a little overwhelming for parents, especially new homeschooling parents! That’s why homeschool curriculum packages are a popular option. They provide what you need to teach your children in every subject and do the planning and organizing for you so you can just follow along and guide your children in their educational life.
SchoolhouseTeachers.com has recently added virtual homeschool curriculum packages for grades K–12, which they call School Boxes. Each package provides everything your child needs for an engaging year of learning:
What makes these curriculum packages unique is that they are a part of an extensive curriculum site with hundreds of additional courses and tools, including the interactive Schoolhouse SmartMamaTM Planner and a Just for Parents section, to help you in your home education journey. You pay one membership price (monthly or yearly) for the whole family, and you have access to all the site has to offer.
While each School Box has covered all the courses for your child’s age, you can use what most appeals to you and have several other options available for additional courses at different grade levels and on a wide range of subjects. The image below is a screenshot of the SchoolhouseTeachers.com home page to show the variety of subjects covered with membership.
The Scope and Sequence Charts go into more detail about what skills are being taught for each subject, but here is a list of general topics for the fourth grade School Box:
School Boxes are a set of online materials, including downloadable pdf files, streaming videos, and other resources that are available immediately upon purchase of a SchoolhouseTeachers.com membership. There is no physical box of materials to store, no shipping cost, and no delay while waiting for materials to arrive.
All you have to do is choose the grade level, choose the subjects, open, click, and go. There are checklists to keep you and your child on track, and everything is always right at your fingertips. Virtual School Boxes are just one more of the many options available to you as part of the SchoolhouseTeachers.com family. Always one low all-inclusive family rate to access everything—including a huge streaming video library, World Book Online, and special needs resources.
See the video interview with the Curriculum Specialist that helped develop the SchoolhouseTeachers.com School Boxes to learn more about these simple, self-paced virtual homeschool curriculum packages and more of what you can get from a membership.
