Public and private schools around here start classes this Thursday. Since we are moving Monday, we won't be starting school work for a couple more weeks, but curriculum plans are in place (even if lesson plans are not).
Here are our choices for this year (or at least all the ones my sleepy brain can remember):
Prima & Secunda (grades 9 & 8, respectively):
History, Literature, and Bible: Omnibus 1 & 2
Science: Apologia Biology
Math: Saxon Algebra 1 (Prima) & Teaching Textbooks Algebra 1 Secunda)
Vocabulary: Vocabulary From Classical Roots A & B
Writing: Writing As Drama (modified and taught by Kyle - unfortunately, no longer available on the market)
Terzo (grade 5):
History & Geography: Story of the World 1
Science: guinea pig for my "soon"-to-be-published science curriculum
Spelling: Spelling Workout
Math: Rod & Staff 5
Logic: Mind Benders
Quarto (grade 2):
History & Geography: Story of the World 1
Science: guinea pig for my "soon"-to-be-published science curriculum
Spelling: Spelling Workout
Handwriting: Rod and Staff Penmanship
Math: Rod & Staff Math 2
Logic: Mind Benders
The boys will also read a variety of books from the library.
I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things, but my brain just can't recall them.
If you'd like to participate in the "Not" Back to School Blog Hop, head on over to Heart of the Matter for the participation rules.
We're SOTW fans too... doing volume 4 this year. :) Would love to read more about your SOON to be published science work!
