What Your Child Needs To Know When: According to the Bible, According to the State

What Your Child Needs To Know When by Robin Sampson

Concerned homeschooling parents are always asking "Am I doing enough?" This book answers this question and includes the checklists for academic evaluation for each grade K-8 and much more. Author Robin Sampson explains our children need to obtain academic knowledge, but, more importantly, they need to acquire the wisdom to know how to use the knowledge! "You may be interested in this book because it includes the state standards but you will come away from it inspired to rely on God's standards!" The goals outlined in this book will help you prepare, teach, and evaluate your children from a Biblical world view. It will also advise you in helping them become self-motivated, lifelong learners.

Academic standards should not be separated from spiritual standards! We need to teach the whole child according to the child's individual God-given gifts.  True wisdom progresses beyond intellectual pursuit; it is practical.
