I have all three volumes of Konos in like new condition I am no longer using, and I would rather see them used than sitting on a shelf collecting dust.  I also have Konos Africa including the map if anyone is interested in that.  Thanks!

It's hands on learning through unit studies on character traits.  For example you study the parts of the ear when you do the unit on Attentiveness.

We are doing KONOS...out of curiosity, how much are you selling your volumes for?  Are they the newest editions?

They are the newest additions printed, which really isn't that new.  The last copyright was 1997.  If you go to there website http://www.konos-reps.com/original_curriculum.htm the picture they have posted is the cover of the books I have.

I'd like to get $100 for all three volumes.  They are in pristine condition, like new, no writing on the pages etc.

Thanks for repying!  I actually just bought the 3 volumes from a friend but was wondering if yours were more updated than hers.  It sounds like they are the same exact volumes.  Sorry if my interest misled you!   We just started KONOS (and Homeschooling) this year, my oldest is 11.  We started off with the KONOS In-a-Box curriculum and I think we are ready to move on to the volumes.  Did you change your mind about the curriculum?  If you don't find a buyer for your volumes you might want to try Title Wave, I saw some KONOS volumes for sale there.  Or maybe you can check with Tabitha Orr to see if you can post them on the New Mexico Homeschool Community (yahoo)Group.  One last suggestion is to try the Homeschool Classifieds.com    http://homeschoolclassifieds.com/ ....possibly you've already thought of these things    Happy Homeschooloing to you.  We may join you for a bowling day some Wednesday!

Thanks for the great advice, I'll try the classifieds, maybe that will work.
I tried Konos thinking I would use it for a while, but it's too much work for me to pull everything together.
Bowling is great fun, hope we'll see you soon!

I'm finding that KONOS does require a lot of prep work, which I knew going into it but I'm still trying (and hoping) that it will work out for us!  I love the concept of it and my girls have learned a lot from it but I feel a bit inadequate at the preparation part.  Since I've taken the plunge and bought all 3 volumes, I hope I can get the hang of it soon!  Hope you have success with the homeschool classifieds!
