After returning from our Israel trip and spending a week cleaning and doing laundry, I am now able to focus on the upcoming school year.
This is a busy week for me as I have been planning for our school year next year as well as preparing for my last convention of the year. We have joined a new homeschool group this year and Ill be teaching a writing class for middle schoolers. I am writing my own curriculum for that class and will be combining IEW and literature. At home, I am using Sonlight's Core 5 with two children but Timothy has already been through this Core once in '05 so I am pulling together a new set of readers for him. So I have THAT part of the curriculum that I'm writing as well. It sure makes me appreciate all the years of Sonlight under my belt (11 this year) where I was able to just open the Instructor's Guide and hit the ground running! This is the most tweaking I've had to do yet in all my years of homeschooling...thank you Sonlight!
What are YOU doing to prepare for the new school year?
