Caviar Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Here's what's brewing for next year for my 5th grader: CLE 400 Math Memoria Press: Famous Men of Rome (Will probably add some readers, from the library, that correspond with Rome. This will be fun, free reading. No analysis.) The Book of Insects (this will be our science) Geography I 5th grade Literature pack Catholic Heritage Curricula: Little Latin Readers - we'll start with the Primers and see how far we get.(might start this for the summer) Map Skills E (maybe, we'll already be doing geography, so this would most likely be overkill) Sewing with St. Anne (maybe) Art with a Purpose: Artpac 5 English Grammar Revolution (might do this over the summer with all the children) EIW - Essentials in Writing 6 (maybe) Megawords (maybe) CLP - Studying God's Word F As you can see we're using things from a variety of publishers. We are Protestant, but I really enjoy a lot of the Catholic curricula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omnifox1 Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 Thank you so much ladies!! I appreciate the ideas. So far: Math: Saxon 6/5 History: Early Modern Logic Stage (mix between Hist Ody Early Modern level 2 and pulling book lists from Veritas Press, BFB, and TWTM) Geography: Trail Guide to US Geography and Draw the USA Science: Biology Logic Stage (Elemental Science Bio Logic Stage and Real Science Odyssey Bio level 2) Reading: Literature selection from Veritas press, Memoria Press, TWTM, and possibly Heart of Dakota to go with Early Modern History and 5th grade level general lit books. Writing: IEW (Student Writing Intensive-A and US History-Based vol 1), Easy Grammar, WWE, possible copy work from Presidents Character handwriting curriculum, spelling?? either Spelling Power or continue AAS3 Health: Abeka Health 5 Art: Harmony Fine Arts 5 Music: Piano lessons with song books that have popular American song such as the Star Spangled Banner etc. Logic: ??? Bible: Still working on but probably just AWANA and whatever we look up at home. That's what I have so far. Nothing is set in stone so far but Im hoping it will be enough to keep my daughter busy this upcoming year. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootAnn Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I went looking for this planning thread to see if my plan had changed since I first posted. I found another 5th grade planning thread, but I didn't post on that one. I didn't post on this one. Is it possible that I skipped dd#3 in the planning threads? :ohmy: :crying: So, here's the current plan: LA: Spelling - Spell to Write & Read - hopefully, last time through the end lists (with older two sisters) Writing - most likely a vintage text off Google books like Maxwell's School Composition or Progressive Composition Lessons by Brautigam, Harper, and Kidd. Grammar - was going to be Growing W/Grammar 5 - but they've revised it & I don't want to rebuy the whole level, so probably just skip it. Math: Abeka Arithmetic - finish level 5, start level 6 History: History Odyssey Ancients Level 2 (with dd#2) Science: Elemental Science Logic Stage Biology (with dd#2) Foreign Language: Latin: Continue w/First Form (only will get through Lesson 13 this year). French: Getting Started With French (with dd#2) Religion: Baltimore Catechism 2 (Part 2) + Saint reports?? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
