A Beka Curriculum Review

A Beka is well known in the homeschool community as one of the pioneers in Christian home school curriculum. Although parents were once limited to purchasing textbooks and teacher manuals only, the company now has several options available to help parents teach their children using the same materials that are used in many Christian schools.

For parents who feel comfortable teaching their children without outside assistance, Abeka offers a complete academic program for children from nursery age (18 months) through 12th grade in the form of textbooks, workbooks and teacher's guides. Lesson plans can be purchased separately, and will save parents time by providing a day-by-day plan for the entire year.

In addition to textbooks and teacher's guides, the company also offers video streaming courses and DVD based lessons through A Beka Academy. This is an independent study program for children in grades K-12 that uses Abeka textbooks and materials, along with video lessons taught by the company's instructors.

Students enrolled in the academy receive all necessary textbooks and materials, academic assistance, student evaluation, and record-keeping.
