>>15465306I've been homeschooling for two years, one in New York and one in California. Very different processes and requirements. I spent about $150 on materials each year and probably could have done it for less. If you think I can help reply and I'll try to blather about it for a while before the thread dies. Short version, stick to "standards focused" sources including some common core workbooks, and say so. In California they are pretty hands off but I needed to file an affidavit declaring myself a private school. NY is very strict and will want detailed explanations of materials and progress. Best math books are AlgoPrep but they have mistakes in them. Spectrum makes good science books, and I use Mark Twain for history, social studies, PE. Crash Course on YouTube is awesome, use
Code.org for comp sci, and don't bother with homeschool groups or other parents unless you have a good scene in your area. Kids are fucking weird these days and parents useless. The need to socialize with other kids is a myth. Take your child everywhere you go and encourage them to talk to anyone you talk to. Store clerks, cafe people, playgrounds (maybe), flea markets, other errands. Work friends. OneNote is good for keeping records with embedded links and no fuss.
