An excellent resource for any family.--Educational Freedom Press [Jessie Wise and Susan Wise Bauer] are thorough and pragmatic, offering a detailed curriculum for kindergarten through grade 12, as well as opinions on everything from Latin (an indispensable language) to the Internet ('a mixed blessing').--The New Yorker An A for Home Schooling... a remarkable compendium of information designed to help home-schooling parents give their children a traditional liberal education.--City Journal This book would be entertaining simply as the story of how Jessie, then a schoolteacher, decided to teach Susan, who now teaches literature at the College of William & Mary, at home.... But it's so much more than a good yarn. It's a mind-stretching tome.--Robert Holland, Richmond Times Dispatch Has caused a revolution within the homeschool community.--The Old Schoolhouse Magazine Homeschooling parents on a mission to find the ultimate resource--or parents of traditionally-schooled children interested in an excellent supplement--are all well advised to peruse the pages of Wise and Wise Bauer's classy guide to classical education at home.--The Boox Review An invaluable road map.--The Daily Democrat

Synopsis
Discover a proven, time-tested pattern of education, updated for today. Learn how to teach your own child to read enthusiastically, to write fluently, and to enjoy math-no matter what your school situation may be. Lay the foundations for academic excellence in the elementary grades. Train the maturing mind of the middle-grade student. Free high school students to express themselves with clarity and pursue their own particular interests. Build a high school transcript and navigate the college admissions process with confidence. Explore options for online learning and identify the very best matches for your student. Gain the confidence to guide your child's education., "If you're a parent who has decided to educate your children yourself, this book is the first you should buy."-- ?Washington Times The Well-Trained Mind will instruct you, step by step, on how to give your child an academically rigorous, comprehensive education from preschool through high school--one that will train him or her to read, to think, to ?understand ?, to be well-rounded and curious about learning. Veteran home educators Jessie Wise and Susan Wise Bauer outline the classical pattern of education called the trivium, which organizes learning around the maturing capacity of the child's mind and comprises three stages: the elementary school "grammar stage," the middle school "logic stage," and the high school "rhetoric stage." Using this theory as your model, you'll be able to instruct your child in all levels of reading, writing, history, geography, mathematics, science, foreign languages, rhetoric, logic, art, and music, regardless of your own aptitude in those subjects. This newly revised edition contains completely updated ordering information for all curricula and books, new and expanded curricula recommendations, new material on using computers and distance-learning resources, answers to common questions about home education, information about educational support groups, and advice on practical matters such as working with your local school board, preparing a high school transcript, and applying to colleges.

However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.Catland by Hughes, Kathryn, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US (#356798982438)
