Designing Your Own Classical Curriculum by Laura Berquist 

When beginning to homeschool her children back in the 90s, my mother did not find many available resources for homeschool parents. This book was and is a very popular tool for parents who are looking for a resource that offers guidance and recommendations in all areas of a complete classical education. This book is rich with information and has an abundance of literature recommendations. The author, Laura Berquist assembled the tools to give homeschoolers the ability to create their own K-12 education that is based on a liberal arts curriculum. It is accessible and easy to use for anyone! My mother successfully homeschooled eight children using this book as her main guide. It is still the book that she recommends to beginning or struggling homeschoolers looking for reinforcement on their schooling journey!

​Also, you may note that the author is Catholic and has given religious resources in the book. But, many others, who are not Catholic, have found this to be an excellent resource due to the time-tested aspect of a true classical education.
