Homeschool products come in a variety of forms and packagings, and it goes without saying
that some are better quality than others.
If you've ever purchased something substandard, you'll know just how frustrating it can be
to know that you've wasted your money.
Thankfully though, online reviews can be your new best friend when it comes to sorting the
good, from the bad and the ugly!
Here, we'll review the pros and cons of Alpha Omega LIFEPAC.
So, what's this particular product all about then?
Well, LIFEPAC is a Christian homeschool curriculum for grades K-12 that provides a year's worth
of content at each grade.
Though it can be used as a standalone product, there's a number of additional resources available,
including a bible with additional passages about Christian living in today's world.
A key advantage of using this product, is that it covers five subject areas, with additional
electives to choose from.
Having a solution that offers consistency is great news for both you and your children.
You'll get to grips with the layout much faster, and your children will benefit from knowing
what to expect from their lessons.
It also takes away the need to scour the market for more resources that will fit your needs.
Another benefit of this item is the testing features.
It's really simple to track and assess progress, and this is a vital part of any program.
It lets you quickly identify any problem areas, and really focus on anything that your child
may be struggling with.
In this respect, it's a really responsive option.
Of course though, no product is without its critics.
Some homeschoolers have commented that the materials aren't comprehensive enough, and
that they've needed to add additional products to make lessons more effective.
If you like to get creative with the ways in which you educate your children, this issue
could well apply to you.
Some have also suggested that the material is a little behind what they'd expect for
each grade.
This is of course easily overcome by reviewing the content in advance and comparing it to
your child's ability levels.
Alpha Omega LIFEPAC will best suit religious families who wish to equip their children
with knowledge and understanding of Christianity and the bible, alongside national curriculum
requirements.
Though this won't be a priority for all homeschoolers, this resource is extremely valuable for those
who are looking to take this route with the appropriate levels of support.
