NanceXToo Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Oak Meadow. Used it as a complete curriculum for 4th grade last year and loved it, so we're using it as a complete curriculum for 5th grade this year (and using OMK for my little guy, too).

Laura Corin Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 I used Galore Park So You Really Want to Learn English 1, plus a spelling list I pulled off the internet. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca Posted September 11, 2010 Author Share Posted September 11, 2010 For the areas of Language Arts I am thinking: Handwriting practice ( is this still necessary?)- we use Copybook Writing Instruction Grammar Spelling Reading Right? Or am I missing something. Thanks, Rebecca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali in OR Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 -All of MCT Town level (Paragraph Town, Building Poems, Caesar's Engish, Practice Town. Already done with Grammar Town) -R&S 5 (a lot of this is done orally or we skim stuff we already know) -Aiming for 1-2 lit books per month done well (i.e. I read them too, we discuss the book, maybe use Teaching the Classics Socratic Discussion or do a lit guide or at least a book report). -Writing in other subject areas, esp. history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
