This book, The Well-Trained Mind: A Guide to Classical Education at Home, is a giant resource book for the classical education home schooling approach. I LOVE it. It's support, it's smart, it has guidelines for curriculum, it has lists of recommended methods and books. It was written by a woman and her grown daughter (whom she home schooled) and both (I believe) are qualified educators. It talks methods first, amazing, and then it is broken into three sections: Grades 1-4, Grades 5-8, and Grades 9-12. They also go over some things to do pre-grade 1. It's been a couple of months since I looked through it. Maybe I need to revisit that section because Carter is there:) Seriously, WOW, if you are thinking about home schooling, you like the classical approach and you want a find-it-all resource book this is it!
So the highlighted text is linked to the book's website if you want to find out more.
