A Comparison of Monarch and Switched-On Schoolhouse

I am searching for the 2015-2016 school year and comparing curriculum. I have not yet decided on Internet or books. I do this every year but this year I am going to have them do their own analysis. I want them to learn to compare what would be easier for them because this is their homeschooling experience and I want them to enjoy it.
I found a great comparison of Monarch and Switched on Schoolhouse o check it out because it really helped me to decide on the best computer curriculum to choose from.

Something New

    I have finally decided to make my own curriculum for the 2014-2015 school year. Spending money on books,workbooks,and prep fees has taking its toll on my finances. Ive' spent countless hours researching how to make my own curriculum. There was no way way to do this,I could purchase how to's and already built subjects for my kids, but my husband bought me a mac last year for my birthday. 
   
  I decided to see what programs were already in place on the mac book air that can help me build curriculums ibooks was a very helpful tool and I've already completed the kids Art Appreciation curriculum and very satisfied with it. I will be sharing it soon as well as the rest of the books that i have come up with. 
Happy curriculum searching! It's never too early to start school planning for this fall 2015!

Planners

Helpful links to homeschool planners:

I have used all of these and found homeschool planet to be my favorite! I used the planner for two years but now I use My Homeschool Grades which is everything I need from keeping grades to maintaining their transcripts! By far the best for me and my family,please feel free to choose what will fit for your family! Hope this helped!!!
