Art classes at the local art school once a week. Once a week cottage school enrichment at the ps which cover - Spanish, Science, literature, art, music, and P.E. I don't assign reading, but she reads an hour or two daily and currently is trying to read all of E. Nesbit's books. She also loves fairy tales and myths from around the world.

Parlez! 1 *Science--I failed miserably at doing this this school year. I am hopeful for next, though! *Geography--Beginning Geography Workbooks from Evan-Moore w/ little sis *Music--Music Ace 1; Story of the Orchestra (not finished with either) *Art--we are going to try one of these art videos this summer--the one on Monet *Memory work--math drill and Developing Linguistice Through Poetry Memorization (I think that's what it's called--it's the IEW program) We haven't done all of that all the time.

Bible-Either Bible Study Guide, or Greenleaf's OT history which I already own...can't decide completely, either...I really like the Bible Study Guide, so most likely it will be that...:) Science and History are my iffy subjects yet...either Abeka, BJU, SOT, SOTW, or Mystory of History which was just given to me...I'm having such a difficult time deciding the direction that I want to go with history, whether traditional or chronological...blah,blah, blah...I just need to make a decision already. We also do MCP's map book and we have a few drawing books that my son is always working on. Okay, that's the gist of it...we use other things to enhance what we do, like Tatras Vertical phonics to improve reading and spelling skills, and some other helps and lots of library books.

gandpsmommy Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) Here's what we are planning to use: Lively Latin Big Book II Righstart Math D First Language Lessons 3 Writing With Ease Level 3 Story of The World 3 All About Spelling Level 4 Spanish for Children Abeka Cursive handwriting R.E.A.L. Chemistry She does competitive gymnastics at least 10 hours a week, and she might play soccer or take swimming classes. So we don't do much with physical education at home besides letting her have time to play on the swingset, ride her bike, hit tennis balls at the courts 2 miles away, etc. She takes private piano lessons, but we'll probably check out library books for music history and cd's for music appreciation. In the past we have used Artisitic Pursuits, but I feel that she is ready for something more. So, I'm still looking around for a good drawing program and we will most likely enroll her in classes at the art museum. We either buy or check out children's novels from the library for reading as we go along. Right now she is reading her fourth book in the Little House series, so she might want to finish those. But, we just sort of choose those as we go along. Ditto for free reading. I haven't quite decided about literature yet. This year we read D'Aulaires' Book of Greek Myths and we're finishing up DK's Children's Illustrated Bible. We have D'Aulaires' Book of Norse Myths, but I haven't decided whether to use it or not. We'll probably finish up The Geography Book for geography and just work on memorizing regions of the world. This year we worked on continents. Next year I'd like to start on countries.

SLH in ND Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 This is what I did with my 3rd grader (this would be 2 yrs. ago, as she is going into 5th grade now) and I pretty much used the same thing with my 2 older dd, as well. Math - Saxon 3 and since we school year-round, we got started on Saxon 54 as soon as 3 was completed History - SOTW 3 & a Catholic history text for the same time period were the spine, then I followed suggestions from TWTM for supplemental reading. Science - The Elements (mainly) MCP Phonics C MCP Maps, Charts, & Graphs C Abeka Spelling & Poetry 3 Grammar/Writing - we enroll in Seton Home Study's program for English. Latin - We had good intentions with PL, but the teacher wasn't on top of it and if I must say, maybe had a negative attitude about doing it, :blushing: so it never really did get accomplished.
