MomOfABunch Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 What does memory work for the early grades look like at your house? DS2 is now in 1st grade and I'm not sure what exactly memory work should be for him. DS1 was in public school at this age, so this is my first HS 1st grader!

ALB Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 We mainly do poetry and Bible verses for first grade, but we also do recitations which contains some important information from different subjects (like conversions for math, parts of speech for grammar, names of continents for geography, Sates and Capitals). Since we use mostly Memoria Press, we use their recitations, but it would be easy to make your own tailored to your own curriculum. Here is a blog post about recitations and here is one on how we organize our other memory work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Twain Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I advise making a list of memory work to accomplish through 6th grade or maybe even 8th grade. Then pick from that list things to add year by year, continually reviewing. Someone started a thread recently which listed memory work goals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
