We have just completed 2 weeks of our new school year. I promised you a while back that I would share our curriculum plan for the year, and I apologize for not doing it sooner. When Bookgirl was invited to Nationals for the Bible Bee, I adjusted her school plans, so some things will not be started until after November.

After the Bible Bee we will add:

I also have a list of read-alouds that we will work our way through. We will most likely do year round school with several small breaks this year. This will be new for us, but I know many families have told me this works for them, and with the bee in November it looks like the best option.
