A Little Bit About the Love at Home Education Curricula
•
I was initially inspired by the saying, ‘Create the things you wish existed.’ I had a vision for my brand that others have proven to agree with. The diversity, variety and abundance of curricula within Love at Home Education is produced with the customer in mind. When I like a brand in any industry, and I find they are lacking a product within that industry, I, like many others, dread the hunt for another shot in the dark at a product from a brand I don’t have experience with. And so, I hope Love at Home can provide my customers with the spice of life!
A few things that we want you to know:
- A .pdf link is automatically downloaded with every print purchase.
- We recommend doing Language Arts Daily, Science 2 times a week, and History 2 times a week (with the optional ‘tea time’ and art day on Friday); this is what our numbers are based off of.
- The majority of our Units are K-12 with the exception of our future math programs, and a few of our Language Arts programs.
- Our curriculum is grouped into Grade groups, rather than levels; so for each unit that is K-12; you will have the following Grade groups. K-3, 4-6, 7-8, and 9-12. And then preschool. As such, within each K-12 unit, the Language Arts portion will be divided up into these grade groups.
We have 4 main categories, and 1 category still in process. Please see a list of our categories, and the products included.
