Ok, This is our first year homeschooling. This is my youngest list. She is 8, but has special needs. Handwriting / fine motor skills are delayed. She was diagnosed with a reading disability. We need to test her for dyslexia. Also, because it is our first year, I have changed some of our curriculum. Most of it will not be done at the end of this school year and will be finished in the fall. We homeschool year round, with breaks as we need them.
Spring/ Summer:
Language Arts- All About Reading 1, Writing with Ease 1, First Language Lessons 1, and A Reason for Handwriting (She hates this. Not sure to keep going or stop. Going to give it a little more time.)
History- Following the guide from Build your Library grade 1, SOTW 1, with books added. We use the Cd and teacher guides.
Science- dropped the ball here. Was doing Botany, but hated the curriculum. We are just exploring nature around us
Math- Life of Fred. Working on Cats right now. And Touch Math Addition (this was given to her in public school. I use it to help with her math.)
Fall:
Once we finish above:
Language Arts- All About Reading 2, All About Spelling 1, Writing with Ease 2, First Language Lessons 2, and handwriting (but no idea what or we may skip, with using WWE)
History- I think History Odyssey Middle Ages, lv 1
Science- Earth Science & Astronomy for the Grammar Stage
Math- Life of Fred
Art/ Music- Harmony Fine Arts Grade 2- Middle Ages (undecided)
