First Grade for the First Time

Next week we'll start first grade!

I'm really excited about it, and I'm not the only one. Gilgamesh has been begging to do school since we stopped after his kindergarten graduation. I'm sure if I hadn't pulled together a workbook and daily encyclopedia reading, we'd all have gone completely insane! Especially since we're a little grounded with the new baby and all.

So this is what we're excited about:
Sonlight Core B (1st grade) with Grade 1 Readers: Intro to World History


and this:

Science B: Animals, Astronomy, and Physics

and this:

Singapore Math 1A/1B


and this:

Mathtacular DVD's and manipulatives

and this

DK My Art Book

and this

Bernstein Favorites: Children's Classics

and this

Sequential Spelling, Volume 1




For Gilgamesh, 5 years old:

Bernstein Favorites: Children's Classics, including Peter and the Wolf, The Carnival of Animals, and A Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra

Sequential Spelling, Volume 1

For Alastor, almost 3 years old (he's still a little young to pick up the curriculum we used with Gilgamesh last year):


Letter of the Week Preschool Curriculum by Confessions of a Homeschooler




Pretty sure this year is going to ROCK!

Here are a few pictures from our Box Day with Sonlight:
