Grade One Curriculum – Weeks 3 & 4

0 Shares

Here is the second installment to our homemade grade one curriculum.

To keep things a bit organized I’ve created a Grade One Curriculum page where I will have links to each of the weeks as I post them, you can head there to get the link for weeks 1 & 2 as well as an overview to our year and links to some of the books we will be trying to read this year.

On to weeks 3 & 4!

Our Homemade Grade One Homeschool Curriculum - Weeks 3 & 4 - includes Bible, writing, reading, math, science, history, geography, art and music!

GRADE ONE CURRICULUM
WEEK THREE

We did one major switch up this week: we have moved math up in our morning. It has been working better to either do it first thing or right after our Bible story otherwise it seemed like Raeca was feeling overwhelmed with math but she still felt like she needed to do it.

GRADE ONE CURRICULUM
WEEK FOUR

I tried a new system for our week and instead of writing down what we would do each day I just wrote down what I wanted to get completed for each subject for the week. It was a flop. Ha, had to learn by doing I suppose.

We also decided to try to fit our work into 4 days instead of 5 and use Friday as a swimming day – that worked out pretty well and is something we want to try to continue.
