HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW: OUR REVIEW OF CALVERT HOMESCHOOL

      I have never thought I would want to do online homeschooling, but I am always willing to try new programs and see what is a good fit for our family and what is not.  I was more than happy to receive and review a six month access to Calvert Homeschool Online provided by Calvert Homeschool.  I love companies that try to help homeschooling families find new and innovative ways to teach their children.  

     Calvert Homeschool is an online program that requires an internet connection, but can be used anywhere you go as long as you have a connection.  I love how versatile it is.  The online subscription gives you access to 45 courses for up to 3 students.  This is geared for grades 3-12 and they have placement tests to help you decide what classes would be best for your student.  

     

      There is a parenting board that makes setting up the assignments for your children easy.  You will make an account for your child/children then you choose what classes they will be taking and the dates they will be doing them.  When your child signs in to their account, they will see the assignments for that day and they can easily navigate to what they are required to do.  Once your child completes an assignment, you will receive their progress and grades on your parenting board.  It is all so easy!!!  I wish I would have had something like this when my older 4 were in school.  I love that they even have themes and colors to choose from. I love sites that can be personalized.  

     We decided to use this program for our 7th grade daughter.  She is using it for Math, History, and Science.  They have other classes like Language Arts, but we decided not to do that one at this time.  Hope is not one to sit in front of a computer everyday, so we have been using it 3 days a week and she is doing well.  She loves the Math classes most but is progressing well through World Civilizations and Science 700.  

     When they begin each class they are given a course overview.  Once they read through that, they begin their course.  Each class has a page explaining the concept, then questions to answer. When they complete it and are graded they mark it as complete and are ready to move on.  You as a parent can choose if they need to go over the concept again if they didn't do well. It is quite a remarkable program and always has the parent in mind as well as the student's education.

     Do you feel like your homeschool needs a change? Do you need more time to do other things in your home while your student is learning? I know I have been there many times and this program could be the answer.  I encourage you to check out their site and social media pages listed below:
