Those are our plans for the upcoming school year! I have that wonderful "my-curriculum-is-fresh-and-shiny" feeling right now - so full of possibility! I'm excited to get started and start living out our plans. Hopefully we'll enjoy what I have lined up and find a good rhythm for our year. Looking over what I have laid out, I like where we're headed. Hopefully the minions will agree with me!
Linking up with iHomeschool Network for the NOT Back to School Blog Hop Curriculum Week!
I love that fresh and shiny feeling at the start of each year. Have a wonderful time. Learning is such a fun adventure to share with our children.

Thank you!
DeleteThank you for using SQUILT this year! I'd love to hear how you like it as you progress through the curriculum! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm very excited to give it a try! I hope you have more coming!
DeleteOooo, I've gone through 20 or 30 blogs linked from the NOT Back-to-School Blog Hop, and you are the first that I've seen mention Brave Writer at all, let alone the new Partnership Writing book. I feel like we are automatically kindred spirits for that alone!
ReplyDeleteWe're actually almost through the first project in Partnership Writing, and I love to see how they get excited to write and write and write. I knew code writing would be a huge hit with my spy loving boys.
Anyway, thanks for sharing on the NOT Back-to-School Blog Hop.
Oh yes, I'm a Brave Writer fan girl for sure. I have read through The Writer's Jungle several times and each time I get more good ideas. I'm very excited to start the writing projects! We did quite a few from Jot It Down last year (and will probably draw from that resource again this year). Good stuff!! I think my boys are going to love the code writing project too. And it is something I probably would never have thought of on my own. Love it!
Delete... ever the girl playing catch-up with emails. Just getting around to reading your plan of attack! Looks great, Claire. Best wishes for an amazing year! Hope you're loving your new community, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! :)
