Research has shown that there are no curriculum that produces better results than another. Parents should choose a curriculum which facilitates learning within a specific child. Every child has a preferred learning style and parents can choose material which will be most suitable for their unique child. Homeschooling consultants offers seminars and personal consultations for guidance in choosing a curriculum.
Parents can join a support group in their area and asks the moms who have been homeschooling for a few years what they are using. They can also organize a visit to look at their homeschool material.The annual homeschooling expos offers a wide variety of educational products.
Parents who decide to start off with a structured curriculum are advised not to buy a complete package for grade 1 to 12 as the needs of the family and child changes over time. Just the grade they need at that stage to see if the curriculum is going to work for them.
Homeschool ABC on this website has an article on how to choose a curriculum.
