This is what kindergarten will look like for us...
Once a week we will go to Classical Conversations ("CC"), a homeschool community offering weekly memory work (includes history, science, geography, math, latin, language arts and history timeline), oral presentations, fine arts, and science experimentation in a classroom setting. This is our second year, and we love it. More about that in another post.
For the rest of the week, reading is the name of the game. I plan to read a lot of things aloud with no immediate expectations beyond immediate enjoyment, but we are also going to work on narration skills as we read with a goal of making connections to our CC memory work. We'll also spend a significant amount of time improving his reading. Here's an outline of our days:
Memory work - Classical Conversations
Handwriting
Reading - The Beginning Readers on this list
Language Arts - This program to reinforce phonics and introduce spelling
Math - This curriculum
Bible - Memorize Ephesians 6 along with a chronological review of the Bible
Enrichment - Once a week project or field trip
Music - Violin lessons
Physical Education - learn to ride a bike, learn to swim, play an organized team sport
