Christian Home Schooling
What is a good Home School Curriculum that is not Christian?

I am home schooling my 2nd grader this year and I cannot figure out where I can find curriculums that are not religious. Please help. Thank you.

To the person who said, "What's Christian about math, grammar..." and so on, Christian curriculum includes religious stuff within those subjects. I have a copy of English for Young Catholics and it's all grammar done with religious sentences.

In any case, if you're looking for a full prepackaged curriculum, I know this question has come up before and some ideas were listed but I can't remember what other than Oak Meadow. Maybe do a search in answers for secular curriculum. Other things I know of:

Language Arts: Plaid Phonics, Explode the Code, Phonics Pathways, Writing Road to Reading, Learning Language Arts through Literature, Writing Strands (actually designed for Homeschoolers), Sequential Spelling, Spelling Power, Spelling Workout, Language Power, Spectrum Phonics, Spectrum Reading and more.

Math: Actually, there's a LOT out there for math. Saxon, Math-U-See. Chalkdust, Moving With Math, Singapore Math, MCP Math, Ray's Arithmetic, Miquon, Specturm Math, Teaching Textbooks, you can get workbooks and other supplementary resources at any teacher supply store, even at places like Staples.

Science: TOPS science units. Not sure what else. I don't use a formal program for science. And other than Christian moms who might use things from Apologia, I can't think of any specific program other moms use. They just find books of interest at the library, including things with project and experiments. Janice Van Cleave has got some popular and easy books to work with.

History/Social Studies: Again, I don't really know anybody who follows an all-encompassing program for this. They decide what they want the kids to learn and mainly rely on books from the library, but may find some good books at bookstores or through Usborne. DK books are quite good.
