Across dozens of video reviews, The Good and the Beautiful draws more praise than criticism — but the criticism is loud, specific, and repeated. Fans, many of them multi-year users, love that it is open-and-go: the parent script and student work live in one course book, prep is minimal, and lessons stay short. The free PDF downloads of language arts and math (identical to the paid books) come up constantly, as does the gorgeous full-color design. The handwriting program is the closest thing to a universal favorite, and several reviewers say the video lessons from math level 4 up finally give kids real independence. Reviewers also credit the company for listening to feedback: the updated language arts levels are widely described as slower-paced and more thorough than the old editions, which multiple families found too advanced and too fast.
The dissent clusters around three things. First, the spiral method: a vocal group says it is taken to an extreme, bouncing between concepts with too little practice — one family redid an entire grade of math because of gaps. Second, faith: the founder is LDS, and while several users report no Mormon doctrine in the lessons, some Christian reviewers reject the program as not gospel-centered, and others dislike the moralistic "good books, bad books" tone of the readers. Third, substance: critics cite story-heavy "fluff" in math, weak writing instruction, non-chronological history, and a sweet, girly aesthetic that left some kids uninspired. Roughly one in seven reviewers quit the program outright; others quit one subject and happily kept the rest.
Synthesized from 54 independent video reviews — every claim sourced from what real homeschool parents said on camera.
A busy Christian family that wants an affordable, beautiful, open-and-go all-in-one program — especially for average-to-strong readers in the elementary years.
Families who want mastery-based depth with heavy repetition, secular homeschoolers uncomfortable with faith-based content, or Christians who require an explicitly gospel-centered curriculum.

1st grade homeschool curriculum review - math, reading, handwriting, language arts and spelling We're wrapping up another homeschool year, and I wanted to share my end of the year review for my 1st grader's individual curriculum.

WARNING: Why I Won't Use The Good and the Beautiful Curriculum in My Homeschool 🚫 In this thought-provoking video, I dive deep into my decision not to use The Good and the Beautiful Curriculum in my homeschool. As a devoted Christian, I firmly believe in providing my children with a Gospel-centered education that prioritizes teaching them about Jesus, our Savior. Join me as I explore the key reasons behind my choice. I discuss the curriculum's approach and how it falls short in incorporating essential Christian values and teachings. I share my concerns about the lack of emphasis on nurturing a personal relationship with Jesus as our Saviour (because we can't save ourselves), which I believe is crucial in shaping the character and spiritual development of our children. By no means is this video meant to criticize or condemn The Good and the Beautiful Curriculum. Rather, it serves as an honest discussion about why I have decided to seek alternative options that align more closely with my faith and values...and also why I don't recommend The Good and The Beautiful Curriculum to others. If you're a Christian homeschooler who values a curriculum that places Jesus at the center of education, or if you're simply interested in understanding different perspectives on homeschooling, this video is for you.

The Best Charlotte Mason Language Arts Curriculum | CHARLOTTE MASON INSPIRED HOMESCHOOL I've been a huge fan of Charlotte Mason ever since I read the book "For the Children's Sake" by Susan Schaeffer Macaulay (https://amzn.to/2QdDveS) when I first started homeschooling. (See all my favorite homeschool mom books here: https://amzn.to/2P5kmLi ). One of my goals was to find the best language arts curriculum that guided me in a Charlotte Mason style. I want to help you pick a good CM language arts curriculum. There are LOTS of options out there, I will list some, but it is definitely not all. Let’s look at what CM language arts would entail, so you can pick a good one that may fit this basic criteria. NEW to Homeschooling?

WE’RE QUITTING TEACHING TEXTBOOKS to address an issue that left me speechless! We've been using Teaching Textbooks for a year and a half for my 12 year old. We switched to have another teacher help my daughter understand the math lessons, since when we had used Singapore, she and I were struggling. It seemed to be working great! But then this past semester, I started to have concerns. And those concerns led me down a rabbit trail of "investigation" that I never expected. I started out innocently considering other math curriculums, and then I found out something completely out of left field. What happened???? EPSON ECO-TANK PRINTER: I've printed more than 1,000 pages this summer and that ink tank has barely budged!!!!! https://amzn.to/43Dp9V6 CHAPTERS: 00:32 What is our experience with Teaching Textbooks? Why was it "working?" 02:04 Why did I begin to question if this was a good fit for us? 03:59 Curious, I began looking, JUST TO SEE if there was a better fit. We did a placement test from The Good and the Beautiful Math. 06:24 Is this the curriculum's issue? 07:34 What does she need to learn? Do we really need to repeat EVERYTHING??? 09:25 As were figuring out our strategy....here's what I didn't expect to discover. 10:42 So, what now? Where do we go from here? What's the plan? 11:13 Tips on printing the FREE TGATB Math curriculum....I wish I would've realized this! 13:15 Why are we trying out TGATB math vs. a different homeschool math program like Saxon? 14:16 These "cons" of teaching textbooks, I'm realizing....ended up being real disadvantages for us. 15:25 Is TGATB Math going to be as EASY for Mom as Teaching Textbooks was? _______________________ OTHER OUR HOMESCHOOL PLAN VIDOES MENTIONED: MATH FOR THE CHILD WHO WANTS EVERYTHING TO BE FUN: Teaching Textbooks 4.0: Reasons we love it: https://youtu.be/GMBzZKhGtBI&list=UULF6E99KHex7M8Xm0gSzjD8uw HOMESCHOOL MATH COMPARISON: Singapore vs. Saxon vs. Teaching Textbooks: https://youtu.be/m3BxGyJ0wdc&list=UULF6E99KHex7M8Xm0gSzjD8uw STRUGGLING WITH MATH FACTS: Is Math Boring?

Switching From Memoria Press to Charlotte Mason and Ambleside Online We are switching from Memoria Press to Ambleside Online and embracing the Charlotte Mason method in our homeschooling journey! In this video, I share our homeschooling journey, why we started, how we found classical education and ultimately the Charlotte Mason method.

The Good & The Beautiful vs The Art of Reading — Which One’s Actually Better? If you’ve been trying to choose between The Art of Reading and The Good and the Beautiful, this video walks through how they actually compare. I’ve used both and noticed some key differences that might help you decide what’s best for your homeschool. I’ll share how each program approaches phonics, reading fluency, and teacher prep time—plus what stood out to me after using them side by side. I’m not here to tell you which one you should use; just giving you the real comparison so you can make an informed decision.

What A Homeschool Day Looks Like | Charlotte Mason + Classical Homeschool It can be difficult to picture what a homeschool day actually looks like before you've started your own homeschool journey, or maybe as you picture adding more students to your homeschool as the years go by. So today, I'm sharing what we did in our Classical, Charlotte Mason Homeschool. I'm sharing all of the resources we used, including Memoria Press Prima Latina, some Ambleside Online resources, Veritas Press/Canon Press, Living Books Press, The Good and the Beautiful Second Grade Language Arts, Reading Reflex or Phonographix, and The Children's Tradition. I'm sharing practical homeschooling tips, how I implement these resources, when I require narrations, and how I schedule it all to fit during our homeschool day.

Homeschool Reading Curriculum Review | Sharing Our Experience + My Heart Through Challenges Homeschool Reading Curriculum choices have changed for each of my kids. They are all so unique, and I've used several different resources as I've taught three different children how to read. For some, it's been a breeze - others have had to work much harder. I hope this video encourages you and provides you with multiple resource options to look into that might be good for you and your family. “DEAR DRAGON…” SERIES https://www.thriftbooks.com/series/dear-dragon-series/53706/?srsltid=AfmBOor92w0a8xOio9gNbQNa94HnXiI_Wd835xUpJNhiynaYtGzx2L2s ALPHABET WORKBOOK https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Alphabet-WorksheetsCurriculum-Letter-of-the-Week-6277509 ALPHABET WORKBOOK LOOK THROUGH https://youtu.be/maUZvtoPBOA?si=s-mHLz5tWoZJzS1E ABC SEE HEAR DO https://amzn.to/47xcw3i ABC SEE HEAR DO LOOK THROUGH https://youtu.be/GBRkqSQcHEo?si=3Q-CMvzQqPCCt8ks LOGIC OF ENGLISH LOOK THROUGH https://youtu.be/hhR4gtEpH7s?si=_6l5J4YGW76rMV2u LOGIC OF ENGLISH REVIEW BLOG POST https://simplylearningtogether.com/logic-of-english-foundations-a-review/ READING PYRAMIDS LOOK THROUGH https://youtu.be/o2L_Zxt6x3Y?si=tHP2voyP8ZlZmI6g PHONICS PATHWAYS LOOK THROUGH https://youtu.be/mGcdAY32A5s?si=UanSpwP-N-KAxVl4 TREASURE HUNT READING BOOK https://amzn.to/4lAkdcH TREASURE HUNT READING LOOK THROUGH https://youtu.be/WA47JNWKPKk?si=zCX8dS_azU9yyLeF TREASURE HUNT READING WEBSITE – FREE VIDEOS https://treasurehunt.prenda.co SHARPEN READING (ABECEDARIAN) LOOK THROUGH https://youtu.be/co7M8DY1opE?si=ieSMOwaaFjAqlxe9 SHARPEN READING WEBSITE https://www.sharpen.com/?srsltid=AfmBOopeDWX65XZ-xPILUjWDp09BqU75KPQZEPMKlCqlrZAXJmMyATfa READING BOOSTER CARDS: https://www.goodandbeautiful.com/pages/reading-booster-program?srsltid=AfmBOops_t2iJxVbk3VIG-k4Ot-t4qrqmcRnJcogHKHyM3sH4lscQm0U MATH CURRICULA REVIEW VIDEO https://youtu.be/xB6O32zbK8w?si=KPeJ6ALbI-Aqu67N This post or the comments may contain affiliate links. #homeschoolreading #readingcurriculum #teachingreading CHAPTERS 00:00 – 2:41 Intro 2:42 – 3:30 Dear Dragon Series 3:31 – 7:56 Teaching Struggling Readers 7:57 – 11:49 ABC See Hear Do 11:50 – 18:03 Logic of English 18:04 – 22:25 Reading Pathways/Phonics Pathways 22:26 – 24:13 Treasure Hunt Reading 24:14 – 28:47 Sharpen Reading 28:48 – 33:14 TGTB Reading Booster Cards 33:15 – 36:01 Final Thoughts
The Good & The Beautiful vs Christian Light Education | Why We Switched In this video I compare The Good & The Beautiful vs Christian Light Education and explain why we switched homeschool curriculum in our home. I go in depth through both programs, looking at how they teach, how the lessons are structured, and why I ultimately felt Christian Light Education was the better fit for our family. The Good & The Beautiful is known for its beautiful aesthetic design, engaging pages, and simple layout. However, after using it for a while, I personally felt like the teacher guide was lacking depth, and I began noticing gaps in my child’s learning because there wasn’t enough consistent review built into the lessons. Christian Light Education, on the other hand, is much more structured and methodical. The lessons are longer and there is far more opportunity for review and independent practice, which helps reinforce concepts over time and prevents learning gaps. Both curriculums use a spiral approach, but they implement it very differently. In my experience, The Good & The Beautiful can feel overly spiral and somewhat unorganized, while Christian Light Education revisits concepts in a more intentional and structured way. In this honest review I also discuss: • The aesthetic differences between the programs • Teacher guide depth and instruction quality • Spiral learning vs review structure • Lesson length and workload • Independent work vs teacher-led instruction • The Good & The Beautiful's online math component • Why Christian Light Education feels more methodical Every homeschool family is different, and both of these programs have strengths. My goal with this video is to provide an honest homeschool curriculum comparison to help parents decide what might work best for their children. If you're researching The Good & The Beautiful homeschool curriculum, Christian Light Education review, or trying to choose a spiral math curriculum for homeschooling, I hope this breakdown helps. ___________________ 🔍GET MY FREE EDITABLE HOMESCHOOL SCHEDULE HERE: https://heavenlyhomeschool.org/ ❤️Join My Email List Here: https://heavenlyhomeschool.org/ 🛍My Links: ❤️ Homeschool Favorites on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/shop/wildflowerhearthome 🔍10% off AOP Homeschool Curriculum - LifePac & Horizons: https://aop.com/?utm_source=socialmedia&utm_medium=influencer&utm_campaign=jess ❤️$20 Coupon for Outschool Classes Online for Kids: https://outschool.com/?signup=true&usid=iDdNr6QI&utm_campaign=share_invite_link ❤️ Schoolhouse Discoveries Science and Social Studies: 10% off with code HHOMESCHOOL — https://www.schoolhousediscoveries.com/mpOwDx ❤️Reading.Com FREE TRIAL – Reading App for Kids: https://reading.com/?via=jessica-ellis ❤️ 10% Off Coupon for History By Mail Program for Kids: https://www.historybymail.com/JESSICA10 ❤️25% off Study.Com Online Homeschool Program: https://bit.ly/46BV75z ❤️Our Favorite Books in Our Homeschool: https://amzn.to/44uxbRx 🌻Find Your State Homeschool Laws: https://hslda.org/legal 🌻My TIKTOK Channel: https://www.tiktok.com/@heavenlyhomeschool ❤️My Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heavenly_homeschool/ — DAILY FACEBOOK POSTS HERE: https://www.facebook.com/heavenlyhomeschool Disclaimer: Some of the above links are affiliate, which means I may make a small commission if you choose to make a purchase using them (at no extra cost to you!) -Jessica

I will also go over the BiblioPlan curriculum, and other homeschooling ideas.
Don't Make This Curriculum Mistake | Generations VS TGATB Generations and The Good and the Beautiful both claim to be Christian homeschool curriculums — but when you look inside, the differences are massive. In this video, I compare Generations vs TGATB so you can see what each curriculum actually teaches and why parents often end up with very different outcomes. If you're trying to choose the right Christian homeschool curriculum for your family, this comparison will help you look beyond the label and evaluate what's really inside. 🎓 CURRICULUM CONFIDENCE — Choose the Right Curriculum With Confidence 👉 https://courses.howdoihomeschool.com/p/curriculum-confidence-1 If you’ve ever thought: • “Every curriculum sounds good… how do I know which one actually FITS?” • “I don’t want to waste money or quit mid-year again.” • “Why does choosing curriculum feel harder than teaching it?” That’s exactly why I created Curriculum Confidence. This course teaches you a simple framework to evaluate homeschool curriculum so you can choose with clarity, confidence, and peace — instead of overwhelm and regret. 🏡 HOMESCHOOL PARENTING PROGRAM — Start Homeschooling the Right Way If you're new to homeschooling, the Homeschool Parenting Program walks you through everything you need to know to start strong. Inside, you'll learn how to: • Choose curriculum wisely • Build a homeschool rhythm that actually works • Avoid burnout and overwhelm • Raise confident, capable learners It's the roadmap I wish every homeschool parent had at the beginning.

Homeschool Curriculum Review: Math U See #homeschoolcurriculum #homeschoolmath #homeschooling One minute look at Math U See, homeschool math curriculum.
“As a former high school English teacher, I feel like I have really high standards for language arts and truly The Good and the Beautiful exceeds my standards for language arts.”
“The number one reason why I've really leaned into the good and the beautiful is because it makes it easier.”
“it is also 100% free to download and print at home which is huge for so many families especially for those of us who live internationally”
“It is a spiral curriculum, but they take spiral to the extreme where they're just like learning way too much at once, bouncing all around, not retaining anything in my humble opinion.”
“my kids have been completely uninspired and that really hurts me because I want my kids to love learning”
“the good and the Beautiful is not gospel centered and that's why I wouldn't use the good and the Beautiful”
Reviews tell you what worked for someone else's kid. A 5-minute profile tells you what's likely to work for yours — matched across 1,307 programs, free, no signup needed to see your top picks.
The founder, Jenny Phillips, is LDS, and this is the program's biggest controversy among reviewers. Several users — including one who researched the criticism in depth — say no LDS doctrine appears in the lessons, the company is transparent, and writers come from many denominations; the curriculum is marketed as non-denominational Christian. Other Christian reviewers still reject it because the gospel itself is absent: they describe moral lessons and Bible stories but no gospel-centered teaching.
Mostly, yes. Reviewers confirm the language arts and math course PDFs for most levels are free to download and print, and one reviewer stresses the download is identical to the paid physical version, not a lesser edition. Several add a caveat: the books are so color-heavy that home printing gets expensive, so some recommend just buying the affordable physical course books.
Both, depending on level. Reviewers consistently praise it as open-and-go — the teaching script and student work are in one book, with no separate teacher's guide — but the early levels still require a parent sitting one-on-one for every lesson, which several found time-consuming with multiple kids. From math level 4 up, video lessons let kids work much more independently.
Spiral — it constantly circles back to previously taught concepts. Fans say the daily review is exactly why it works for language arts. Critics say the spiral is taken to an extreme, with long gaps between introducing and reviewing a concept and not enough practice; a few report real retention gaps, including one family that redid an entire grade level of math.
Reviewers strongly recommend it. The program runs advanced relative to typical grade levels, and multiple families found the older editions moved too fast — one mom's child couldn't start the placement test two levels below her grade and landed even lower. Reviewers say that's normal: it's set up by level, not grade, and a struggling reader placed at grade level will drown.
Opinions split. Several reviewers say it suits an average or naturally strong reader, while a struggling reader needs something more thorough — one recommends pausing to add deeper phonogram instruction when a child gets stuck, since the program doesn't have enough depth to support that on its own. That said, one mom of a likely-dyslexic third grader had real success with the updated edition after placing her into a lower level.
Handwriting is the closest thing to a universal favorite — gentle, one page a day, teaches cursive. Language arts and math draw the most praise overall, especially the updated editions and the booster cards. The weak spots reviewers name most: writing instruction is thin, the literature/readers strike some as moralistic or cheesy, and the history is not chronological — two reviewers said they would never use it again.
