Additional Curricula Recommendations
In The Well-Trained Mind, we offer our “top” recommendations for curricula: those that combine academic excellence, ease of use for the parent, clarity, and (when possible) affordability. But there are many books, programs, and resources that are compatible with the goals of classical education–even though we may have found them unnecessarily complicated, hard to find, overpriced, specialized, or quirky to list in the book itself.
The recommendations listed here are only a few of the many available. Visit our forums at forums.welltrainedmind.com for even more suggestions.
