It's that time of the year again!! I love getting all organized and prepared for the start of our homeschool year. It hardly seems possible that this is our 7th year of homeschool and I now have a 4th grader and a 6th grader. This year it seems we have more subjects and books than ever! We'll be starting back in just two weeks.
Here's my 6th grader's personal lineup:
What's worked in the past that she's continuing with:
- Math: Teaching Textbooks
- Handwriting: Getty Dubay
- Classic Literature units using various sources
What's new this year:
- Supplemental Math: Life of Fred
- Grammar: Rod & Staff
