Homeschooling in the Mountains

So more reading. More researching. More buying and more returning later. I think I finally can say I have a plan thay I am fully confident about. T starts Pre-K officially on the 30th of August and I have been organizing, filing my pants off for the last few weeks. So without further ado the plan

Math - Math-U-See Primer + Singapore Math Essential math B
LA - First language lessons 1

History + - Sonlight core P 4/5 with readers 1
adding in lots of fun art projects and a bunch of new computer games for fun time

Kindy

I have thumbed through all the books and feel confident that this is the perfect mix for us! It feels so good to be ready to go and not constantly second guessing the choices and wondering if there will be gaps or problems!!!! I also tweaked the workboxes and adding in a filing system ala the well trained mind forums but those will be another post once I get my computer to recognize my SD card :op
