I am currently looking into a great new curriculum called eTap.

www.etap.org

It looks wonderful and at $359.00 for a year's subscription for all the family, full K-12 curriculum, it is a deal! It teaches the basics and then has video and tons of links to explore the lesson more fully. It has self grading exercises and tests that can be printed out for record of what the kids learned and also has lessons for passing the GED, ACT, SAT, and the California exit exam. I am so excited about this because my kids were doing Global Student Network but the amount of work was huge and the lessons were so tedious the kids hated it.

eTap allows the parent to choose what lessons the kids learn and has links for both evolution and creationism. I can't wait for my kids to start! (No, I don't work for the company!)
