The Educents Best Curriculum Guide of 2015
Over the years Educents has chosen Time4Learning time and time again as one of its top featured products for summer learning, top educational websites, and a valuable contributer to its 2015 best curriculum guide.
Old Schoolhouse didn't offer a list of products to choose from... the people who were surveyed chose it!
The Old Schoolhouse Magazine “2012 Excellence in Education” Award
By means of email and social media, The Old Schoolhouse Magazine surveyed their homeschool community. Without being given a set of choices from which to choose, respondents were asked to submit a curriculum or product that they consider the best of the best in various categories. Consequently, the winners of the TOS 2012 Excellence in Education Awards were clearly chosen by the respondents, and the respondents were not constrained by the crafters of the survey.
I found the activities in this program to be right on task with what the children need to learn to be prepared for kindergarten.
Best Products of 2010 Award – Disney’s iParenting Media Group
“This is a creative and educational site with lots of entertaining and engaging activities. I appreciate that there are not only different levels but also many categories on each level, and within those categories are several different things to do – this means that kids could use this site for quite a while before exhausting all the activities.”
“What makes the site interesting is the attention to detail and the range of skills to practice. I also like that while there are expected categories like counting and animals, there are also ones about feelings and healthy practices. It is easy to navigate and provides prompts to help kids understand what they are looking at and doing.”
iParenting.com, a Disney Internet Group media property, is a premier media site focused on parents. Their 40+ websites are devoted to the entire family lifecycle – from preconception through the teenage years.
IBCCES Certified Autism Resource
IBCCES, the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Standards was established in 2001 to meet the credentialing needs of professionals that work with individuals with special needs. It is comprised of professionals, including BCBAs, researchers from leading universities, state level Special Education Directors, as well as clinicians in the fields of mental health, Speech and Language Pathology, School Psychology, Occupational Therapy, and parents, which review and update standards each year to ensure they reflect the latest research and comply with current laws and regulations for professionals in the field of Autism.
When I look back at our first few homeschooling years, I am a bit appalled at our wastefulness. We use an online curriculum as a 'trash preventative' now, and it's really helped!
Green Business Certification from the IGBC
Time4Learning offers a perfect paperless solution for homeschooling, as an afterschool alternative to tutoring, or as a summer skill builder. By using the web to deliver the language arts, math, science, and social studies curriculum, Time4Learning is helping environmentally conscious families reduce or eliminate the need for paper teaching materials.
And while “going green” is a nice feature of an online curriculum, the benefits of Time4Learning go much further than just being Earth-friendly.
