Getting Ready for School

I am still working of preparing for school this year.  Here is what I have planned so far.

I will be using Christian Cottage unit studies for the bulk of our class time.  This will be the first time I have used this program.  Looking it over it looks great.

I purchased Letter of the Week and K4 from http://www.confessionsofahomeschooler.com/  I will use these with my 6, 5, and 3 year old to help them with what they are still lacking.  The 6 year old is beyond some of this but still needs help with reading skills and math.  It should be fun for all of them.

Ordered Stitches and Pins to do with my oldest daughter and myself.  I never learned how to sew well and cant wait to do this with her.  With 5 daughters I am sure there will be plenty of use for any new skills I learn along the way.

Will be using Foundations Bible Study and Building Christian Character as part of our bible study time.

I have also ordered other miscellaneous things to make our learning more fun.  I will write about those when they come in.
