Welcome to Our Homeschool Accounting Curriculum:
Accounting 101

Getting Started with Accounting 101, a Homeschool Accounting Curriculum

Our homeschool accounting curriculum is designed to equip students with the mastery of accounting fundamentals they will need in order to be prepared for their college classes while presenting these concepts in easy-to-digest ways. Its goal is to help students appreciate the state of the industry and the world of finance as a whole in such a way as to be able to operate from a Christian worldview to effect positive change if they choose an accounting or another business career.

Our homeschool accounting curriculum is divided by subject and intended to work in the sequence shown on the course outline. Don’t deviate from this. The easiest way to learn the material is to work in order. Each unit covering a major subject is broken into modules. Most modules will have suggested learning activities and problems. These are all optional, of course, but it is very difficult to learn accounting without DOING it. The timeframes indicated on the course outline are just that—suggestions. Spend the time you need to on a module to master it and then move on. If you plan on taking breaks, do so after completing a module and before starting the next; accounting is cumulative in nature, and this will be easier for you. Ultimately, the way you use the learning activities and problems, and the time you take to finish the course, is up to the requirements and specifics of your own situation.

Math anxiety? RELAX . . . all we will do is add, subtract, multiply, and divide. Accounting is about a PROCESS. We start with learning the language of accounting and build from there.
