Open-and-go curriculum can be a lifesaver, until it suddenly isn’t.

Some families discover that while open-and-go reduces planning, it doesn’t always adapt well to learning differences or emotional needs.

A helpful approach is mixing methods:

Open-and-go for subjects that flow easily

Parent-led or discussion-based learning for tougher areas

You don’t have to choose one style for everything.
