Text Schedule will be a schedule that utilizes workbooks/textbooks.... structure. more structure for The 3 Rs, with strucutred lessons for other aspects (art, history, science). As always, there will be a few weeks of unplanned trips/vacations....
Unit studies are a study of a certain theme, say.....The Wetlands... and using that themes to teach different subjects.. science, math, social studies, spelliong, history, etc...... Unit studies are very effective for us , esp combined with Mulitple Intelligence approaches.

other things i am trying to get plans started for.....
chapger/lesson break downs.... like for Story of the World ( just a read aloud book), I want to go through and read it myself this summer and write down project ideas for the different chapters. I want to use a Latin Word Root program I have. It is a CD Rom. I want to go through it as well and make class lessons, projects, expanded information for each lesson....
and a daily time brak down for TEXT SCHEDULE times will be needed. I have a start on it, but it is best to wait till closer to school time to fine tune this one.
