Kindergarten

After scouring the internet and tons of catalogs, I have found our curriculum for next year. N and EG will both be doing Kindergarten work next year. Here is "the list"




We will add the Bible songs into what we are already doing. This will help them memorize the books of the Bible and stories. K used Veritas Press Bible curriculum with the Cd and they loved it. I think they will like having their own CD.



I think this item caused the most stress. I LOVE Veritas Press but there are so many mixed reviews about this program. I decided to try it. With songs, games, great artist masterpieces...I can't go wrong...RIGHT?????





I love Wordly Wise and I was really excited that they have a Kindergarten workbook. The Explode the Code series is new for me. I am really excited to go through these with N and EG.







I have read alot of reviews about this program and it seems that it will be a good fit for both N and EG. i am currently trying to find another math curriculum for K. I hope by not using the same with them, I can avoid a midyear panic session of finding something else.





I decided on HWT because N does have a few fine motor skill issues and with EG starting early I hope this will be middle ground for both of them.

I am still looking into what science will will be pursuing next year with them and with K. I am trying to decide if I want to go with a more CM approach because it fits us better or because looking at science curriculum is what keeps me awake at night with nightmares?
