To Homeschool or Not to Homeschool

To anyone who knows me, don't freak out or think that I have. I am thinking about homeschooling my youngest child Joanie. Joanie will be in kindergarten next fall. I thought about sending her to the same school as three of our other kids. A christian school that I love. Joanie is going to preschool now. I feel like Joanie is bright, but she is not interested in seat work. I think she would benefit from home school. The last time I home schooled Emily my oldest was in 3rd grade. Emily is now 15 almost 16 and in 10th grade. Evan is in 6th, Madeline is in 5th and Annie is in 2nd. Annie has delays and is not in the same christian school she is in public. If I do home school next year and all goes well I may home school Annie the following year.

When I home schooled Emily I used the Abeka curriculum. I also taught the Abeka curriculum for 5 years. I think I will start out with Abeka for some things, but I am wondering if there is a curriculum that is more hands on less seat work.
