Consider these:

Some of us are in a season right now that leaves little time for teaching. It happens to every family, but is especially prevalent now with the present economic woes as more homeschooling mothers are taking on part time employment to make ends meet.  Well, the Switched on Schoolhouse homeschool curriculum does the teaching for you so you can homeschool with less time involved as the teacher. I won’t pretend that ANY HOMESCHOOLING can be done with out parental oversite. We must always be involved and on top of things. Our children need accountability. They also do better when parents are interested and aware of what they are learning, especially when there is further discussion about the subjects at hand. That being said, you can rely on Switched on Schoolhouse to teach Math, Language Arts, Science, History, Geography, and Bible.

Switched-On Schoolhouse is a full CD-ROM curriculum where children learn, study, and do their schoolwork right on the computer. All the core subjects are included: Math, Language Arts, Science, History, Geography, and Bible. SOS automatically guides the rate of student work, drills, and sets the level of achievement.

Homeschool Mom, Evelyn says, “I like the expanded answer key which displays acceptable answers for problems and questions. That makes grading simpler for me and fairer for my  students. ”

The Switched on Schoolhouse Curriculum includes automatic grading and record-keeping. There is just no easier way to teach your child at home. This computer based curriculum will be a great help for any parent who wants to home school but feels unable  because of time,  resources or know-how.

SOS includes many features but the often cited favorite by children  are the interactive games for one or two players that provides practice for the  students and reinforces what they are learning.
