We've also done a myriad of misc. science experiments that didn't really tie to anything but were just brought about by curiosity.

Donna A. Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 History, Bible & Science -- MFW Expl-1850 (had started it earlier this year, but decided to put it on hold a year) Apologia General Science Saxon Math Foreign Language -- Continue dabbling in French and Latin rather loosely. Language Arts: -- Continue with Building Spelling Skills from CLP -- Undecided about the rest, but it's either going to be MFW recommendations (All-in-One Grammar, Writing Strands & Progeny Press), or Abeka or CLE. I'm working on our LA decision right now. Fine Arts: -- Ballet -- Music studies in Expl-1850 -- Piano either taught by older sis, or going back to formal lessons if we can afford it -- Undecided about Art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudoMom Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 We'll be using: Math: Saxon English: Rod & Staff Greek: Elementary Greek Latin: Latin Alive (I think) Writing: Writing Strands, WTM Writing, Killgallon, Exploring Poetry History/Literature: SL7, Figuratively Speaking Geography: Map Trek, and I think we're going to work through Evan Moor's new 7 Continent series (the Europe on will be here today, and if I like it, we'll keep with them). Logic: Critical Thinking Books 1 & 2 Spelling: Sequential Spelling Vocabulary: Dynamic Literacy My boys get art and some science at a one day a week enrichment program. We'll continue with Judo, piano, and Trampoline & Power Tumbling, but I think we're going to drop Public Speaking for a year or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
