Third grade is a critical time period in education. This is the pivotal year for kids as they slowly begin to leave childhood and to climb toward adolescence. Nine and ten-year-olds will move out of elementary school in just two or three short years. If you are homeschooling your 3rd grader, you probably want the best possible curriculum and program for them. Here’s what to look for in your 3rd-grade homeschool curriculum, whether you do it online or you use a book program.
A Strong, Christian-Based Program
Here in Tallahassee, FL, Christian influence is present in many school programs. It is present at home, and it helps to have a good homeschool program that continues the influence and honors a Christian family. Both workbooks and online programs from private online schools in the state of Florida offer curricula with Christian themes and lessons.
Fully-Accredited Programs Working at Your Child’s Levels
A big problem with in-person learning is that kids that are either behind or ahead of their 3rd-grade peers and are stuck struggling or are bored. A good accredited online program for 3rd graders meets your child at his/her level. He or she is never left behind or bored with the instruction because this 3rd-grade homeschool curriculum works to meet your child’s individual needs. At any time that your child catches up or moves beyond grade level, the online teachers can adjust their teaching methods and curricula to match those levels.
