How To Make Memoria Press Work For You: Homeschool Grade Levels

Jennifer · June 23, 2021 · 3 Comments

Homeschool books from various grade levels

Boxed curriculums are a mixed blessing. Those pre-assembled packages and lesson plans make it so easy to choose each year’s materials. But they also bring out the grade level monster. If a book is in the 4th grade package, and we use it in 6th grade, we assume our child is behind.
