How the summer flys!Here it is already time to start the new school year. We are not going to start though until August 21. That gives me alittle more time to get together my lesson plans and get some things organized around here. I always have good intentions to get all the house in order before school starts but time seems to get away from me. I am going to our homeschool support group/coop planning meeting tonight. We were part of the coop last year but from what I have heard there is not to many classes that we would be interested in this year. I would like her to be a part but their is also alot we could do here with those extra hours each week. This is the curriculum we have decided on this year, Saxon Math 76, Natural Speller for 9 weeks, then we are going to use the SAT vob. words for 9 weeks,Total Language Plus, How Does God Do That? for science. For History we are doing some geography along with U.S. state study and history to go along with each state. I am using the Trail Guide to the U.S. for that. We are going to make a notebook section for each state and do alittle scrapbooking with some of the states. I bought some stickers from the scrapbook store the other day., but it could get to be expensive to buy them for every state. I got online and sent for travel information from alot of states and have more to go.I figure she can cut pictures from some of them and that way it can fill her notebook. If you have any suggestions let me know.
