Homeschool 2012: Thinking Outloud

Erm, typing, I guess.

After talking to several other CC moms, I’ve decided to can the Shurley English.  They said it would be too confusing for the kids when they get to Essentials.  SO – if you are interested in purchasing my copy of Shurley English I, please send me an email through the contact section.  

I’m also trying to get rid of my Veritas Press timeline cards – all four sets – from Creation to Modern Day.  Send me a message about those too.  I’m asking $80 but this is negotiable, especially if cake is involved.

Back to what we’ll be doing next fall:

Henry:

CC is on Tuesday

Saxon 2 Phonics (M, Wed – F)

Saxon 2 Math (M, Wed – F)

Prima Latina (W,F) – this is still a maybe.

Reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading.  My neighbor suggested this reading list from Classical Academic Press and we’ll start going through it this summer, cleaning up the K section, getting ready for the 1st grade list next year.  We already have some of the books, but we can find the rest at the library, I hope!  If we miss a day of phonics for reading, just as well.  My neighbor also said that he may not need the entire year of phonics (Praise the Lord, I am SICK of phonics and so is he!) and might be ready by Christmas to take the bull by the horns and just start reading and writing.  I hope this is the case!

Rhys:

CC is on Tuesday

Saxon K math (W – F) (could probably do Saxon 1 but I don’t have it and I’m not going to buy it)

CLP phonics (M, W – F)

Prima Latina (W/F) if we do it, and if he’s interested in listening to the CD.  The bookwork is too advanced for him.

Reading to him/reading with him if he gets that far, he’s only 4.

Sarah:

Being cute.

Reading to her.
