Gifted Homeschool "how-to"

Upper School & College

While some of the book recommendations listed on this page are more than 20 years old, if you’re looking for a traditional education, you may need to go back that far.

Good, basic literature doesn't change. Science may advance, but basics are basics and some basics are not even taught today. Then there’s history; it’s history unless you prefer to teach a revisionist’s version. Math doesn’t change either

Many of the titles are books I used, and while the books may be 20 years old, the information is still very good. Resource lists may be outdated in some titles but the infomation is still good. I haven't found a "current" book that doesn't cover what these do, some of these topics are not taught at all any more..
