Yes, that's what I'm attempting to do. I have my trusty, rusty Homeschool Tracker (HST) program and my Kindergarten Lesson book from The Foundation for American Christian Education (FACE) and I think I'm all set. I heard one other principle approach (PA) lady ask a question about how she inputs the PA lessons into HST. I've always used it however it best suits me to use it. I have made new subjects just to accommodate our home school. I guess I can afford myself a level of liberty since the children will be only starting K in Sept. No college transcripts to think about just yet. So anyway, I'm going through the lesson book and noticing that we can skip over a few things and add in some more things. I'll probably put in what they have written down and then adjust it when we start. One thing I am disappointed about is the arts and foreign language getting no more than two days a week focus. I think there's way too much to be explored for it to be shoved to the side like that. Of course the history section is chock full of stuff that we'll probably not even be able to get to for lack of time. I'm really surprised that they didn't do more with the arts and foreign language. In contrast, I plan to have the children learning about music, foreign language and art everyday. Even if we only do a little bit, I at least have to give it some attention. I can't just push it to the side. The way the lessons are set up all the heavy subjects are early in the day with breaks in between, then we do the arts and foreign language. I think we'll be able to still follow that schedule. We'll see when we actually get started, but for now, I'm writing it down! It feels so good to be preparing! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blessings, Violet Blogging here, there and everywhere (incuding here). You've been reading a Schooldaze post. |
