[2017-2018 planning thread for 2nd grade]

Here's my plan at this point for my youngest of three, who will already be in 2nd grade! How did that happen?!

 

Bible - AWANA & Veritas Press Self Paced Bible

 

Math - Math U See - Beta

 

Grammar - Shurley Grammar Level 2

 

Writing - IEW People & Places in Our Community

 

Spelling - Phonetic Zoo - Level A

 

Literature - Veritas Press

 

Handwriting - Write Through the Bible

 

Latin - Song School Latin

 

Geography - Expedition Earth (Confessions of a Homeschooler) & Geography Songs CD (Kathy Troxel)

 

History - Veritas Press Self Paced History

 

Science - Listen in to Apologia Anatomy with brother and do some experiments. We may get some Tinker Crates as well throughout the year. Expedition Earth also explores some of the animals and habitats from the various regions, so there's some science in there too.

 

Music - Piano

 

I may add a critical thinking book in there too if we have time.

[Kindergarten Curriculum help!]

Phonics - Teach Your Child to Read in 100EZ lessons along with Explode the Code worked really well for us.

Writing - A Reason for Handwriting

Reading - Explode the Code moving into readers recommended by Sonlight

Grammar - don't worry about this in Kindergarten. Get through Explode the Code, then you can move on to 1st Language Lessons in 1st grade

Math - I have tried a few. You really have to figure out what works best for your kiddo. I like Horizon, but our favorite ended up being Math U See.

 

That's what we used for all three of our children. Hope that helps! =)
