I wanted to add that Christian Book Distributors sells Apologia Elementary books for $25. I was not able to find it cheaper anywhere, even used. People were paying $30 for them used on ebay, plus shipping. They also take a young-Earth position and every lesson has a "Creation Confirmation" section. Don't get too deep into that with my 6 year old, but I am thankful for that foundation, and like knowing that we can explore that more when she's older. Often, I'll share those facts with my 8th grader, too, who is very interested in all that.

What a great list! I am especially interested with what you had to say about Apologia Science. I really need something different for science.

I was so glad to see what you had to say about the Apologia elementary science. My dd will be in 1st grade next year, and I am considering using it. We are currently using A Beka, but find that it is a bit too textbookish for our needs.

I can’t get rid of those giant quotation marks. They’re really getting on my nerves…
