Alpha Omega Homeschool 4th Grade
Homeschooling mom shares her experience with Alpha Omega homeschool LIFEPAC 4th grade curriculum; read her helpful review...
Why do you like this curriculum/course?Overall we enjoy Alpha and Omega Lifepac curriculum, we have all 5 main subjects offered (Math, Science, Language Arts, Bible and History).
It consists of a LOT of bookwork with very little hands-on activities. The educational aspects are amazing but I would not recommend this curriculum if your child is a hands on learner like mine is. We will not likely use this again next year because we prefer hands on. However, I do want to state once again that this is a wonderful, bible-based curriculum and I love that about it! If your child does well with mostly workbooks or if you are good with coming up with supplemental activities, then this is absolutely the way to go!
How long have you used it?We have used this curriculum for about a year.
What grades did you use it for?We use this curriculum for fourth grade, it does seem a little "behind" for her but she is also a little advanced so it is very hard for me to determine if it is the curriculum or my daughter.
What do you like most about it?It has a very strong biblical foundation!
Is it affordable? Why?Ummm, it depends on what you consider as "affordable"! For everything needed for fourth grade (10 workbooks for each subject plus teachers guides) it cost about $260 when I purchased through Amazon.
Do you have any cost-cutting tips, etc. to share when using this curriculum?Not at the moment.
Bettina,
Thank you so much for taking the time to help other parents learn more about Alpha Omega LIFEPAC curriculum. I agree with your comments about it not being the greatest fit for hands-on learners. Some kids LOVE workbooks, while others learn better with less seatwork-intensive curriculum. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated and helpful! Blessings, Heather :)Would you like to leave a comment, ask a question, or share your experience with Alpha Omega curriculum to help others? Use the links below...
