I meant to do this yesterday....to list out the curriculum that we're using.

DANIEL (3rd/4th):

AVKO spelling (great for poor spellers, find out more at www.avko.org )

Complete Math (workbook I bought at Walmart) plus some Math U See (maybe)

Story of the World, Vol I (for history....lots of reading!)

Alfred's Complete Piano (he's a beginner piano player)

Simply Grammar

We're also just going to use library books and such for science, kind of letting him explore on his own with that....I really think he'll be an inventor some day!

We're using notebooking for science, history, geography, etc... and have a separate notebook for Bible (I've sectioned it off into all the books of the Bible, and then he can stick information into the specific book he's in)

ALYCIA (K/1st)

Alphabet Island Phonics

Complete Math workbook

Story of the World, Vol. 1

First Language Lessons

She also has the same notebooks that Daniel does.  Her Bible notebook will probably consist of lots of illustrations of verses and such at this time.

This week's science discoveries are:

Daniel.....working on a research paper to present to Dad on Friday.  He asked, "How long would it take to dig all the way through the earth?"  So he is going to try to determine that, figure out how to do it, and see what kind of problems he might face in doing that.

Alycia....learning about catepillars and butterflies this week.  Doing a lot with Eric Carle's "The Very Hungry Catepillar"
