I talk to so many people that are in their 40's and 50's and their children are all grown and are brainwashed. They put them in the public school system to be indoctrinated.
Not only that, but the Common Core curriculum public schools use is SHAMEFUL. My sister's kids are in 8th and 6th grade. They don't know their multiplication tables, and they can barely read and write. Look into the spiral method of learning vs. the building method. It's horrendous. They are purposely making our children stupid so they will be easier to brainwash.
YOU are responsible for the education of your children. Not the state. Not the government. It is time for parents to step up and do what's best for their children. Get socialization through church, playdates, etc. My husband was homeschooled all the way up. He has an MBA and is doing excellent in life. School took 2 hours a day when he was little and 4 hours a day when he was older. My sister spends longer helping her kids with their homework than my husband's mom spent homeschooling all of her kids.
He had tons of time to be a kid and play and be a kid. School wastes SO much time and then sends kids home with hours of homework. It's lunacy. Please please consider it. I wish I was homeschooled growing up, and I grew up in a red state.
Stay away from the Spiral Method. That is common core crap. Focus on curriculum that uses phonics for learning how to read with SOME site words (the, she, is, at, etc.)
My best friend just started homeschooling her kids. She yanked them out of school (Kindergarten and Preschool) when the teacher read a book with lots of communist messaging in it to the class and was using that as a theme throughout the classroom. It was My Class is a Family. You can find it on Youtube. It's SUPER popular with teachers. They are teaching kids a lie and trying to undermine the importance of family and put a state institution as high of a level as the family in kids' brains so that they trust the authority of their teachers equal to that of their parents. Dangerous.
So she did a ton of research and she is using:
Reading: All About Reading
Spelling: All About Spelling
Math: Math U-See
History: Notgrass History
Science: Apologia
But do your own research and look into the different teaching methods, and make sure you agree with it for your kids. That's what's great about homeschooling. In Public school you are stuck with whatever curriculum THEY choose for your kids. She hasn't started on science/history yet since her kids are so little. But I know the science curriculum she chose is Creationist-based.
For 3rd grade you don’t need much for curriculum. The trick will be meeting CA’s requirements - when I homeschooled they were very hard to meet. Dunno what they are now. I pulled my daughter out in 7th grade and homeschooled her through junior year while I worked full time. There are sooo many resources out there now for homeschooling. There is a Homeschool Legal Defense group that has an awesome lawyer who fights to keep homeschooling open for each state. Just start researching. Start with CA’s requirements, what a student should know by the end of 3rd grade and just go. My kids wish I had homeschooled them in elementary school - they didn’t learn what they should (the youngest doesn’t have her multiplication tables memorized still as an engineer and she never learned cursive) - and they were in a good FL school district! Let me know if you have more questions. I’ve been done since 2012 but I learned a lot!
They are now due to Common Core. We got out just before it got really bad. And my girls became engineers so they weren’t subjected to all the elective classes (they used their AP credits for their Gen Ed) in the Florida state college system. I’m seriously thinking about diving into education during the Great Awakening. As a senior engineer it would be a huge pay cut but I’d love to do something meaningful for these kids that have been so screwed all these years...
There are some posted above in links, my brother kids did through local homeschool association, you can find online, montessori might have a curriculum, your church should have resources, or mindup might have something...
HOMESCHOOL!

This seems too good to be true!

Oh, FL schools are a mess!

Check out the charter schools in CA. Our daughters graduated from Sage Oak - 100% at home, we got to pick the curriculum, and the school paid for it.
