Those plans they are a'changin'

Only about a month into the school year, and my plans have changed so much!  The Review Crew is mostly to blame.  But I figured I better update things

So, kid by kid, my plans this year month (I'm only linking the first reference to something):

Everyone:  Illuminations.  Connor is doing the high school level (but listening to all the family read alouds).  William and Thomas are doing 3rd-8th.  Richard and Trina are doing Early Learners.  This includes history, literature, humanities, geography, grammar, Bible, and vocabulary.  We'll be going back to Grapevine for Bible, though we are currently on break while doing Illuminations for review.

As a family, we are also using IEW's Poetry memorization program, and the older three are using Teaching the Classics.

Connor - 7th grade:

• VideoText Algebra, with a day a week of Math U See Geometry, plus reading through Exploring the World of Mathematics, and continue Quartermile Math.  He is cruising through all of this.
• Writing: Write With the Best, volumes 1 and 2.  We're taking a break to review My Access.  We will go back.
• Latin: Latin 100 from Lone Pine Academy
• Science: finish Physical Science, start Biology. Also planning an Environmental Science unit based on the Boy Scout merit badge. Possibly do Biology with an online co-op.  For fun, he's reading through General Science.
• History: he's supplementing Illuminations by adding a lot of Sonlight Core 6. God's World News, and CNN Student News cover current events.
• Other LA:  AVKO spelling.
• Logic: Fallacy Detective. Something else when we finish that.
• Other: Computer programming, typing, still deciding on something for fine arts, other things as they come up (like TOS Review Crew stuff!), Scouts (should make Star next week(!), working towards Life)

William - 5th grade:

• A-Ha Math for another week, then we'll go back to Singapore or Right Start. Also using Quartermile Math for drill
• Writing: Write With the Best, Volume 1 (currently taking a break)
• Reading: TATRAS, Five Minutes to Better Reading Skills, various readers (Sonlight, mostly)
• Science: We aren't doing anything formal.  Watching Dragonfly podcasts mostly.
• Other LA: All About Spelling.
• Other: Computer programming, typing, still deciding on something for fine arts, other things as they come up (like TOS Review Crew stuff!), Scouts (Webelos II, going for Arrow of Light and all the activity badges, crossover to Boy Scouts in February if not sooner)

Thomas - 3rd grade:

• A-Ha Math through next week, then we'll go back to Singapore, probably doing a bit of review of 2A, and starting for real with 2B. Also using Quartermile Math for drill
• Writing: Write With the Best, Volume 1, though we're currently taking a break
• Reading: Ordinary Parent's Guide to Teaching Reading, various readers (Sonlight, mostly)
• Other LA: All About Spelling, First Language Lessons Level 3.
• Other: Computer programming, typing, still deciding on something for fine arts, other things as they come up (like TOS Review Crew stuff!), Scouts (Bear level)

Richard - kindergarten:

• Math: He's using A-Ha Math for another week, going to Singapore Primary Math 1 after that. Also using Quartermile Math for drill
• Reading: AVKO's Starting at Square One
• Other LA: All About Spelling, First Language Lessons Level 1.
• Other: Typing, still deciding on something for fine arts, other things as they come up (like TOS Review Crew stuff!)

So, there is the updated list.  Subject to change of course!!
