I've been talking things over with the kids to see what they've really enjoyed about our unforeseeable changes this past school year and what they have missed. I was pleasantly surprised by their responses.
They didn't enjoy drawing as much as they did singing the folksongs and hymns. They want to do personal devotions and Bible studies. They want to do another Shakespeare play!
We are continuing our eclectic style this year to meet our students where they are. This year we will be using curriculum for History, High School Literature, Language Arts, Science and Math. We will round these subjects out with biographies, historical fiction, literature selections, and nature lore because we love offering a literature rich education to the children. We will also utilize movies, special projects, and field trips just to change up the pace a bit.
Following is a brief outline to help me stay on track and not forget any of the subjects to address. I did that one year totally forgetting to cover history for the first few weeks!
