Home of the Four Year Plan,
A Family Education Curriculum
The Four Year Plan provides a structure for teaching "everything" and the opportunity to emphasize different areas each time. It allows you to build an independent family home school curriculum or supplement your children's school experience. The Four Year Plan helps your family to learn together with everyone learning the same topics at different levels. It's not just a way of working smarter, it's a way of working together with common purpose.
