Our Books for this coming year.

I finally have everything in one place so I can share it with you all. Here is our order (that has already arrived! Yay!)

 

Five in a Row for everyone. This includes books we read together and then projects that are done that go along with the books. We sometimes do lap books, notebooks etc. depending on the book we are reading.

Home Economics for School- for the three younger girls, but we'll all do it together.

Kitchen Chemistry- for all of us

Solar Energy Mini Science Lab- for all of us

Spencerian Penmanship- for our 15 yr old dd

Reason for Handwriting A- for our 6 yr old twin dd's

Reason for Handwriting B- for our 8 yr old dd

Mystery of History Volume 1- for all of us

English for the Thoughtful Child- Both volumes for all that it applies to

History of the Horse- for all of us

Quarter Mile Math Levels 1, 2, and 3- this is extra math work done on the computer for everyone

Ontario Land and People- for all of us (Social Studies)

We also use Making Math Meaningful when we do sit down math work.

For science we pull from Considering God's Creation and the many science experiments we have.

Lots of readers for the younger ones and novels for the older two. Occasional book reports and projects pertaining to the books being read.

I'm sure I'm missing something but I can't think of what right now.

Our girls are hoping to learn to knit this year too. They are already talking to all the staff ladies about teaching them how!

No, you don't have to be jealous. I bet with your extra school/sewing room you have as much room as our "new" trailer with addition! You will get to move again soon too, right? I know you'll have plenty for me to be jealous about too. I know you weren't serious, anyway.

Love ya.

to be honest I don't think I've missed a single blog of yours for the past year. Lately they've been a bit spread apart and so keeping up the details from one to the next sometimes slips by me, but I don't remember about you losing your extra room...bummer! It seems like it was just finished for your enjoyment! I do believe your house is small. I always thought two bedrooms is way too small for your family from the start. I don't however, think that our new dinky trailer, although a big relief for us from a two bedroom trailer, is anything to be jealous about!! It still certainly wouldn't meet your needs. You'll be in something bigger soon. I'll keep praying for the grace you all need to live life from day to day in your cramped quarters.

Love ya always,
Carol

Yep! You're ready for school. You have a great line up there, and I'm sure your children will love it. I see it's been awhile since your last post, so welcome back to blogging!

Hi Peggy-this all looks fantastic! I got excited just looking at it. In fact, I'm going to look into a couple of the resources you mentioned. Love, Holly
