Sorry I fixed it!
Hey Erica! I finally get to watch your curriculum selections! yay!! I noticed that you listed Art as a subject but didn’t mentioned it in the video (unless I didn’t here it because of kids making a bunch of noise 😁). Is this something you do at home or is it a part of the options program? And if at home, is it once a week? thanks!!
Sorry, there is an art recommendation in my lesson plans, but my kids are doing art at our options program this year.
Is this a complete accredited curriculum?
I use a variety of vendors. Some are accredited some are not. Check with your state requirements, as far as I know, there are only a few that require this, most don’t require the curriculum you use to be accredited.
Did you also purchase the “Teaching Writing : Structure and Style” course for the parent to teach your 5th grader with the “Fables, Myths and Fairytales” writing lessons?
I did not do that course. I just watched the videos from their student writing intensive (now called Structure and Style) with my kids. Then when we moved on to the themed writing lessons we all knew how to do it.
hey there! for a first year homeschooler i was searching for the books you suggested. for the iew which course should i be purchasing?
