Hello all. This is my first post, though I've been reading and re-reading here for quite some time. Actually, I've read so much that my eyes begin to feel like the little googly eyes that our kids use for craft projects!
I'm fairly new to homeschooling. My kiddo and I did K last year, and had a ball. I over-purchased K materials, tried most of it, scrapped some of it, and then found the WTM. Love at first sight.
My son is 6, and though he's reading fairly well, we struggle with writing and any type of seat work. He has a big case of the wigglies. Anything project-based makes him smile, though. :)
We have been doing school-light all summer, and are scheduled to start in earnest next week. But suddenly I find that I'm re-thinking everything I'd planned for first grade. Aaaack.
I would love some thoughts on 1st grade. Is this enough? Too much? Just right? Am I missing something major?
For now, we have:
SOTW, Vol. 1
WWE
FLL
HWOT
AAS, Level 1
Finishing up Headsprout
Right Start Math, B
RSO, Life Science
He also has music and art lessons, and we do tons of reading aloud. As well as swimming lessons, and sports.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
