My how the year has flown by!  We are now in the last two or so weeks of school and how it is speeding along.  I am really pleased with how things have gone, and how my dd7 has progressed.  She is I think ready for 2nd grade work now and perhaps more.

I haven't yet set out my schedule plans for this next year, but I do have most of our curricula taken care of.

This is basically what we will do for dd7:

Copywork(poetry, catechism and bible verses)

Memory work(review catechism)

Reading/Spelling and Vocabulary(Christian Lib Nature Readers, spelling/vocab words from some of our readers, etc.)

History(Veritas Press:Old Testament and Ancient Egypt)

Arithmetic(A Beka Arithmetic 2)

Science( a combo of: Apologia(zoology 1), A Beka Health 1&2, and Pearables Home Ec. 1)

Bible(sections from the Child's Story Bible by Catherine Vos, and Proverbs)

Latin(Rosetta Stone level 1)

I wont be doing everything every day with her, but this is what we will be doing this year.  Now I just have to set up a schedule and plan it out a little better.

I will also be having dd4 doing some work, but not too much.  I want to teach her to read and get her familiar with numbers too.

So here is what I basically have planned for her:

Phonics(TATRAS)

Arithmetic(informal and Math-U-See)

Memory Work(Bible ABC's from New England Primer)

Bible(Child's Story Bible by Catherine Vos, and Proverbs)

I'm very excited for our next year.  I am enjoying homeschooling so much and I know that the Lord will continue to equip me with what I need.
