This is a method of homeschooling based on Biblical principles, from a Christian worldview and developed by Rosalie J. Slater and Verna Hall, who identify seven principles as the center of their approach. The seven are: Christian character, self-government, conscience, individuality, political union and local self-government. In this way, the Principle Approach looks to the Founding Fathers of America and their core beliefs and practices as the path to homeschooling and raising one’s children. This approach uses the Bible as its textbook. This approach can be confused with the Christian Classical Education approach, but the Principle Approach uses the Bible for its core, rather than simply referencing the Bible with each subject of study.
