I loved MFW. My baby just graduated using them. When I started with MFW they didn't have a high school program. And they announced that there wouldn't be one. But alas, minds changed. As you described, one of the reasons that I moved to MFW (many moons ago) was their Bible curriculum. Also, I loved how they thread Biblical concepts & academic topics through different subjects. Beware, now I have adult children that love to debate on every & any topic - thanks MFW! Recently I argued (OK. let's call it - passionately discussed) with my resident animator about the classical songs that played on old cartoons. I had to smile when I remembered MFW's classical music studies. Now I know some folks get on MFW because they feel they need to supplement the curriculum. I didn't care - my nickname in some circles as "the supplement queen". Because of our family background (very international & deep US roots), I found that I would have to do this regardless of which curriculum was chosen. But again learning how your child learns is key. Pick what fits. And don't be afraid to change, if needed. For some of my kids, certain subjects had to be tweaked. Do what works for your child! And keep it FUN! Remember you are preparing them for a lifetime of learning.

I appreciate your review! I love how you explain what works for you may not for another family. I think it's so important for new homeschoolers to understand that (it took me 9 years to figure that out!) Curriculum shopping is overwhelming with all the choices. Ironically, we tried MFW 2 different years because I really wanted to love it, but it ended up not working for us as a family. We thrive on simple, open and go, straight forward curriculum in workbook form. MFW was too teacher intensive for me with 4 kids at very different levels academically. MB was exactly what we needed, and we have used it for 2 years now 💁♀️. We do have a home library with literature from MFW and Sonlight reading lists, which we love.

I picked Robinson Curriculum because I have a chronic disease and have required multiple surgeries (endometriosis) and I really wanted to homeschool bit still have them set up that they can work through their day with or with mom feeling well. We do just 3Rs and bible time. That includes spelling, grammar, vocab and I added harp laurel wreath poetry and recitation book along with memory verses and catechism. All our subjects are in books. My youngest is learning to read and write but the older children are independent learner's and then we do group time for bible time and poetry and read alouds. RC gives you k-12 books digital with one purchase. Use as ereaders or print. Way cheaper. I only buy books we really want, others we print it or ereaders. No workbooks. No purchases each year except saxon math books. Ink, paper, binding and your set k-12 all in one purchase.

I initially found it as a recommendation from a friend and I told her I really wanted to do a Charlotte me some Greek lemon she told me oh it is Charlotte Mason so I checked into it and I have not found anyone who didn’t love it for kindergarten which is what I’m looking at. Most people who used it for kindergarten still seeing his praises of how much they loved it and how fun it was and what a memorable year it was and many people loved it so much they used it with all their kids for kindergarten and so I was super excited and then I started listening to a Charlotte Mason podcast to learn more about each specific topic and what her teachings were and to make a long story short I listened to a podcast on why Charlotte Mason did not like unit studies. And basically she wanted kids to make connections on their own Where in unit studies like MFW is laid out everything is already connected if that makes sense. I personally love how it’s all intertwined. But I started second guessing when I dug more into how kids connecting on their own is important. My husband thinks I a overthinking it. But now I am leaning in a diff direction. So torn. I have an only child who will be 6 this week planning to start kinder in sept

I have used MFW for 10 years. For those who may be new to it, there is one thing to note. Their Kdg and first grade material is different than their five year cycle of chronological history. I first tried MFW when my oldest was in Kdg. I didn't care for it a whole lot because she already knew a lot of the material (such as letter recognition) and I felt it was quite a skeleton framework where I was having to go to the library a lot to get books, etc. So I switched curriculum. When this same daughter was in 3rd grade a friend recommended the MFW five year cycle. I had no idea MFW had something different. Wow, was it ever good! I started with the year called "Adventures in American History" This is a bridge year because I wanted to school my kids together and my son was only in 1st grade. We had a ball! The following year we began the five year cycle and never looked back. That oldest daughter is now a junior in college! :-). Thanks, Mandy, for your post and I hope your health continues to improve!

Making a decision just solely based on someone else's opinions may not turn out well for some so it's really important to educate yourself on different curriculums.

It started with chronic lyme disease then my immune system went nuts and as the years go on I develop more conditions and get sicker and sicker.

I also have chronic migraines and CVS, which I had surgery for in January. Both of those might be symptoms of Celiac, however. I had biopsies taken last week to test, but I won't have the results for at least 10 more days. On hard days, we do "couch school", or my kids will independently do their main subjects (I have a 4th and 8th grader). I preplan for bad days, so we can go a day or two in the week without school. We school year round, and I found that is really helpful since I can take days off when needed, then pick back up once I'm better.

I have also had to deal with chronic illness while homeschooling. It is challenging for sure. I have always had to take this to the Lord and ask Him for a solution. Sometimes it's having my kids work very independently. Sometimes it's lots of read-alouds (when I've had the strength for that). Sometimes older children work with younger ones. Certain subjects my husband has taught over the years. Sometimes on bad days I've had to turn on an audiobook or a Bible message while I lie on the couch. Through it all God gives a lot of Grace and it's amazing what my children end up learning. I am currently doing much better and I have to remember that even now it is totally the Lord that makes homeschooling work for our family. I pray that you are able to find what works for you.

One more excellent way to have your children learn a lot with minimal effort from you as the teacher is to have them copy the Bible. Start at Genesis, set a timer and have them copy for a certain amount of time each day. This teaches Bible, handwriting, spelling, grammar, vocabulary and touches on history and geography in certain passages. Require that the copy work is done as perfectly as possible, an exact replica of the scripture. It is amazing what this one activity will do for your children.

I love MB too and still trying to figure out how to navigate with my struggling learner. I did buy LLFLE 3 and Math 3 but, trying to navigate this challenge. I bought The Yellow Book from Common Sense Press and going to try Math U See. I don't know just feel stuck right now.

I understand how that feels. It took me a few years to really see what was best for my kids. I finally feel like I've got it this year. But, we'll see. Kids change and grow each year, so I'll tweak as needed!

We have tried Masterbooks 3 separate times over the last 4 years...I wanted to LOVE it...but it was not meeting the needs of my kids. We switched over to The Good & The Beautiful and it was everything we were looking for (LA specific)❤️
