The Heart of Wisdom Four-Year Plan
The Heart of Wisdom teaching approach is
a four-year program consisting of several multi-level unit studies
where each member of the family studies the same subject at the same
time on their own individual level. This four-year rotation course
gives each child three distinct exposures to each topic on their own
level. Each unit study includes Bible, history, science, research,
writing, and literature.
-
History is studied chronologically.
-
Science is studied in the order of Creation.
