The Days of Our Lives

Aug. 13, 2008 - School Schedule

Can you believe I almost forgot to post our school schedule.  This is why I joined the blog, to keep myself accountable and let our friends and family know what we are doing.  We started 4 weeks ago to get ready for baby. I figure we will take 4 weeks off once he arrives.
Bible
We are using coloring pages.  It is called A-Z Bible.   We are on letter I.  This way all the boys can participate.

Math
I switched from Horizon's Math to Math-U-See.  Even though I already did K with Emmett, I started him in Alpha.  We really like the format.  He didn't struggle in Math, but I didn't see the concepts being explained in Horizons. Wyatt enjoys having his own workbook too.

Phonics/Spelling
I am using Alphabet Island Level 2B with Emmett. It is a strong Spelling program and finishes up the phonics that we missed.  Wyatt is learning how to write better and we are learning how to put sounds together. 

Grammar
Well Trained Mind (haven't worked it in yet)

History
Beautiful Feet-Early American HIstory
I haven't worked this in yet, because I haven't found a good way to make a timeline that will work for us.

Copywork
Draw, Write, Now
I haven't used this yet, because he has so many spelling words to copy, I really haven't seen a need for it.  I will work it in after baby.

Music
Piano, starting in October. 

Co-op
We start the 3rd Thursday in September.  The boys will be signed up for Gym, Art, and an elective of their choice.  I am hoping for Science. 

  Wow, this is only for PK and 1st grade.  I hope it doesn't pile up as the years progress.
