Originally I had thought I would start school in July just like last year, but we were having so much fun doing so many other things that we decided to wait and start the first Monday of August. So a week from today will be our first day. The only item I don't have is her math curriculum, but I plan on ordering that this Friday. Just had to wait for the funds to arrive. This year as recommended by Simply Charlotte Mason we are breaking the year down into terms. We will have 3 -4 terms through out the year. There was so much that I wanted to do this year we just couldn't do it all every week. So the information I am sharing today will be for our first term which will last August - November. ?
