When is the first day and what we will be using

So the first day of school will officially be September 1, 2014.  I have made a little welcome package for the kids.  This year we will use an eclectic style.  The programs we will use are:  All About Reading Level 1, All About Spelling Level 1, First Language Lessons, RightStart Mathematics 1st edition Level B (we are continuing with this as we switched shortly before our summer break), Sign Language (starting with the basics first), Spanish (I forget the name but it is made for children), Italics handwriting level B for W. and level C for E, Story of the World 1, and for science/geography we will use a bunch of stuff that I have accumulated.  I plan to take a picture of the kids on the first day receiving their goodies.  I will also post a schedule as to when certain things will be accomplished.  That's it for now.

Starting the Journey

This blog is for friends and family to see what the kids and I are working on with school.  This is our 2nd year.  2nd year for the oldest and officially the 1st year for the youngest.  This is my first blog and I hope everyone enjoys it.  We are starting "2nd grade" and "K" September 1st.
