Question 1

How much time does it take to do the 1st grade kit each day?

Accepted Answer

We asked parents who used our 1st Grade Kit how long their student spent on "school,” and they estimated that their students spent 1-4 hours a day on their kit, working 4-5 days a week. That variation is likely to be impacted by how in-depth you take your child's studies, what your child's learning approach is, how distractible he is, and much more.

Question 2

How Do You Know If Your Child Is Ready for the Next Kit?

Accepted Answer

Not sure if it’s time to move up? Totally normal! A great place to start is with our  Placement Tests . We have complete tests for younger kiddos to show exactly where they are. For older students, you’ll want to focus on the  math and language arts  sections to get a good feel for their readiness. Kids are usually ready to jump into the next kit—with maybe a few exceptions. If your child is heading into 3rd grade but places into 2nd-grade math, no problem! You might want to grab the 3rd-grade kit and simply swap out the math. If a subject didn’t stick last year, now’s your chance to figure out why. Maybe your child just missed a few concepts (hello, summer review!). Maybe the curriculum didn’t click. Maybe math just isn’t his jam (yet). Or maybe he needs a little extra support—and that’s okay! One of the best things about homeschooling? You’re not locked into a one-size-fits-all timeline. You can customize learning to fit your child and help them succeed at their own pace. Ready to start exploring? We’re  here to help  every step of the way!

Question 3

Are Timberdoodle Kits Accredited?

Accepted Answer

Nope—and that's totally normal! Here's the deal:  Accreditation  is for schools, not curriculum. Your local school district might be accredited, but their textbooks aren't. Accreditation looks at things like teacher degrees and classroom hours, not the books or materials being used. And since Timberdoodle kits aren't a school—they're a collection of awesome learning tools—there's nothing to accredit. If you see a homeschool program claiming to be "accredited," just remember: it's the  school  that's accredited, not the curriculum. And don't worry— no state requires homeschool curriculum to be accredited . (Phew!) What you  really  want to know is: "Will Timberdoodle meet my state's homeschool requirements?" In most cases, the answer is  yes —we meet or beat what's needed! However, every state's rules are a little different, so we recommend checking yours. (We even have a  quick cheat sheet  to help!) Still scratching your head?  Reach out —we'd love to help you figure it out!
