Hi!
3rd grade.
Is CLE as thorough as RS for LA?
I'm new to homeschooling. I have 6 kids, homeschooling our oldest- 3rd grade, others are in school. (2 kinder, 1 pre-k). I hope to bring them home once I figure this all out.
Just a bit overwhelmed with teaching so many subjects to so many littles. I need something tried, true, thorough, and semi-indepent. In which it will allow older kiddos to get started if I need to work with a younger one) I would like to spend more time just reading than anything, but I know we have to work through learning the details of english & writing.
Where to start?
My dc can read, yet I noticed that she is intimidated by longer words, I picked up AAR and will work through it to fill any gaps.
With that said, should I start at 2nd grade or 3rd? I hear that 3rd grade is where kids transition from learning to read, to reading to learn.
(for science & history- we'll read books, not looking for a curriculum here. At least for this age)
Thank you in advance!
