And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.~Lee Greenwood

Back to School

Posted in Schooling

We actually started back last Monday so we are in our 2nd week.  We have done well staying on track which I am thankful for.  We didn't  change too much this year but we did add Latin for myself and the older girls.  We are using Latin Road to English Grammar so this also covers our English for this year.  We are at the end of Chapter 1 and have almost got the Lord's Prayer down, at least if we read it.

The twins are still struggling with spelling so I purchased the Phonics Road and am using that as a quick review for them.  I really like the program and can't wait to use it when Puddin is old enough.  We are doing about a weeks worth of work a day with it.

We have started Year 2 of Tapestry.  Last week was basically a review of the end of the Roman Empire which we never really covered.  This week we are into the Byzantine Empire.  I am looking forward to learning about the Middle Ages and Reformation as that is a period I have never really studied.

We are off to a strong start and hopefully, will be able to continue.  How is your school starting or continuing as summer winds down and fall begins?

It was good to read about your homeschool - are you pretty happy with Tapestry of Grace? We've looked into it a bit for future and are still perusing others. I had to visit your blog when I saw the name, as we have five little women too (one of whom is due to come out of my belly any day now!) Blessings to your family!
