To clarify, I plan to develop phonics/reading and handwriting individually, but other skill subjects might end up being together. Ds#1 has been working through Webster's Syllabary for 6 months or so, very slowly. He should be reading in the next few months. I plan to try it out with Ds#2 later this year, like maybe when he's closer to 4 in the winter, but not push it if he's not ready. So, unless ds#2 turns out to be a genius;), I expect them to be roughly a year apart in learning to read, spell and write.
I will start FLL1 with both at 1st/K ages and see what sticks. If it's not working for the younger one, no big there.
Math will be done together for now because I'm doing mostly mental math stuff and measuring, games, etc for the first couple years. We'll see in a few years if they start more formal math (Ray's) around the same time.
Science, lit and history will be fairly easy to keep together as long as I delay the history loop until ds#2 is ready.
So, I guess, I'm slowly seeing a picture of how this might work, but still wondering if my picture is realistic. Kwim? I am a HUGE planner. My scope and sequence has been done since ds#1 was a baby. :D. As I said before, I'm willing to adapt wherever needed, but I work better with a defined plan and a sense of whether or not on I'm on a workable path.
Regards,
C.
