Greetings, I’m new to the forum although I have been lurking for months. Thank you to everyone on the boards who has unknowingly helped me. 😉 Math: Singapore Dimensions 5 with Beast Academy online to supplement. English: Mosdos Press Pearl super excited about this. Looking to add a few novels to accompany social studies. Social Studies: Oak Meadow 6: Ancients - kind of on the fence. I have read some less than positive reviews. It seems to go far but not deep ( if that makes sense). Thinking about selecting a few chapters from the Oak Meadow book then using MBTP to supplement. Spelling: Kind of stuck here. DD is a strong reader and not a completely atrocious speller but definitely needs help. She makes repeated mistakes but doesn’t seem to remember when corrected. Former private school instruction was mostly weekly lists by reading level rather than spelling level so she never learned certain rules or roots. We tried AAS this year but it didn’t work for us. We started at level 5, a little lower than the placement test to catch any gaps but it seems too low. Thinking about Apple and Pears or Phonetic Zoo for next year. Grammar: analytical grammar? Writing: here is where I have the most uncertainty. We used WriteShop F this year and while the program is fine it didn’t seem to challenge dd enough. She is a strong natural writer and wants to write professionally when she grows up. This is our first year with homeschool after a private school that had a pretty good writing curriculum. I’m looking at either adding Cover Story to WriteShop or maybe switching from Write Shop completely. I like the idea of adding a creative writing component but I don’t want to completely forgo non fiction (summaries, reports, persuasive, etc) writing instruction. Any suggestions are more than welcome. Science: REAL Science Odyssey, Biology Spanish: we had small group online lessons this year but I am thinking about Homeschool Spanish Academy Piano: Hoffman Academy?
