Our Curriculum 2016-2017

Kindergarten & 6th Grade

Well, I am a little late in sharing about our curriculum this year.  The month of August brought some major major changes in my life and I have to admit I didn’t really handle them very well in the beginning.  In fact I did horrible.  But I’m not talking about that yet – right now I’m back at it and sharing about our curriculum for the new homeschool year!  We are loving it!!!

6th Grade

Roo is my 6th Grader and the one who started this whole journey!

We are staying with Sonlight again this year for our (Core G) History/Geography, Language Arts, Bible, and Reading.  But for Science we LOVE our Apologia!  This year we are jumping into Chemistry & Physics along with the awesome Lab Kit!  For Worldview studies we are again going with Apologia Who Is God?  Saxon Math Homeschool is our Math. We also have a few things that we’ve added Handwriting and Wordly Wise (always a favorite).  This year we are adding in the Writers in Residence course from Apologia (and so fare it’s a huge hit).

Kindergarten

My sweet little Boo is in Kindergarten this year and totally thinks she is a super big kid now!

I’m actually reusing a lot of the curriculum I had for Roo when she was in Kindergarten (which totally helped the budget this year).  Our core is Sonlight for History/Geography, Language Arts, and Reading.  Math is Saxon Math and we’ve added Wordly Wise, Handwriting and Explode the Code.  Boo will be joining her sister this year as we study Worldview and Science to keep us all together.

So this is a glimpse at what our homeschool year will look like.  I’m sure there will be additions and items changed out but this is where we are starting – always stay flexible.

What are you using for curriculum this year?  Any big changes coming this year?
