newtohs asked: I’m looking for used or inexpensive textbooks for my highschooler. I’m not looking for Christian-based books though. Basically something I can just open up, understand, and teach from.
This is our first time homeschooling. We’re used to the public school’s way of teaching/learning, so we thought we’d stick to teaching that way since he’s “comfortable” with it. Once we become more familiar (if that’s possible…there’s so much info out there) with everything that is involved with curriculums, we may change our approach. But for now, this will work for us.

millancad asked:
As a public high school student, I’ve noticed that my best teachers teach 100% from their own knowledge and never (or very rarely) use textbooks. Also, as a person who attended a Montessori school for 9 years, I don’t really like text books. So I was wondering how often do homeschooling parents use textbooks (or any text really, whether physical or online) to teach their children.
People seem to be answering a question that I’m not asking. I’m wondering how often HOME SCHOOLERS use texts/text books.
