The Bible
HomeSchool Agenda for 08-09
I have set our official date for school as September 15th. My daughter's birthday is September 2nd and so that gives us a whole week to enjoy the Labor Day holiday and her birthday and then another week for me to plan for school and recuperate.
This year we will be using:
Adventist Sonlight Curriculum-This curriculum uses the color coding of the Rainbow to cover all subjects
Red-Health
Orange-Math
Yellow-Music
Green-Nature
Blue-History/Geography/Prophecy
Indigo-Language
Violet-Voice
The Curriculum is Bible based and so we cover Bible everyday along with two other subjects. The lessons are made for the family and so everyone learns together.
Math U SEE-We use this as a supplement to our main curriculum. I like the math in our main curriculum because it teaches math from a Biblical perspective. I also love Math U See
Italics Handwriting- I absolutely love this handwriting program. I love the fact that the print and cursive are very closely related and follow the natural flow of the hand.
Charlotte Mason- I will be using Charlotte Mason's method's of habit training as found in Laying Down The Rails-A Charlotte Mason Habits Handbook. We also use Charlotte Mason's Scripture Memory System
I hope you have a great year! :)
