Tuesday, July 25, 2006 - School prep
Good morning to you,
No jelly making to day, I have a sick child, we had to cancel violin and we will not be going into town. No pectin, no jelly.
We are gearing up for school to start. I am going to run down what we use.
I am planning for my Kindergartener and 1st grader to follow the amblesideonline.org booklist and schedule for year 1. I am not quite so sure about my 3rd grader yet. (I am classically and Charlotte Mason minded, alot of overlap with both and I am trying to figure out where I stand on the differences! I love the concept of the gentle art of learning!!!!) So,
Bible:
The Bible

Phonics:
I have used Scardey Cat Reading system last year and will continue on.....
I might use Teach your child to read in 100 easy lessons with my younger 2
Grammar:
Maybe Rod and Staff? 3rd grader
Math:

Science:

History:
