Putting a Love2Learn Curriculum Together

It’s easy to put together a comprehensive Love2Learn Curriculum for your family - you will require the following two components:

1. Disciplined Studies; and
2. A Core Package or Extended Core Studies.

Love2Learn Curriculum is designed in the form of a wagon wheel.
The hub of the wheel represents a single Core Curriculum made up of either Extended Core Studies or a Core Package, used to teach all of your children, all at the same time - so that you don’t lose your sanity! (Please note: You can home-school your entire family on any subject from our Extended Core Studies, provided that ideally the age difference between your youngest and oldest child does not exceed a maximum of 4 years. For a Core Package, the maximum age difference cannot exceed 2 - 3 years.)

Certain subjects can be taught to the entire family simultaneously, using the one-room schoolhouse concept. These subjects are Bible, History, Geography, Biology, Science, Technology, Human Anatomy, Economics, Music, Art and Literature. (That’s the good news…. now the bad news…)

Certain subjects simply cannot be taught to the entire family at the same time because they are linear and sequential in nature. These subjects are called Disciplined Studies and comprise Mathematics, English, Afrikaans (if resident in South Africa), Learning to Read and Handwriting. So, the spokes of the wheel represent the individual Disciplined Studies selected for each child according to their grade level.

In order to effectively cover your family in terms of Core Studies, it may require you to operate two Cores simultaneously if the age difference between your children demands this.

Separate Disciplined Studies for each of your children according to their grade level must then be added. Therefore, in keeping with the above visual, if you have one child in Grade 3, another in Grade 5 and a third in Grade 7, you will need Grade 3 Maths, English (and Afrikaans if resident in S.A.), PLUS Grade 5 Maths, English (and Afrikaans) PLUS Grade 7 Maths, English (and Afrikaans).

PLEASE TAKE SPECIAL NOTE:

  • You do not have to order our full selection of Extended Core Studies or Disciplined Studies for that matter. You are welcome to order as little as a single subject at a time if you so desire. (Again we remind you that this does not apply to Core Packages as these are a fixed combination of Core Subjects that are indivisible).
  • You can mix and match subjects from any of the Cores Studies or any Disciplined Studies and build your own curriculum.
  • The smallest unit that you can purchase from Love2Learn is a single subject, not a single title.
  • Love2Learn does not disclose its booklist. We respectfully request that you do not forward enquiries in this regard to the Love2Learn office.
