This year was full of ups and downs, changing schedules, and changing curriculum. It was trying, it was frustrating, it was fun and adventurous. It was everything I thought it would be and more (both the good and the bad)!
Now we are gearing up for 1st grade and introducing Mason for his first year of pre-schooling. I pray I
Right now, here is what I have Zander's core:
- Epi Kardia 1st grade
- Math U See Alpha
- Bob Jones Phonics & English
- Bob Jones Science (as a followup & enhancement to the Epi Kardia lesson plans)
- Story of the World (continuing passively from last year)
Really, we have all we need right now to begin: a joyous thing as well as a bummer. Did I mention I LOVE curriculum?! LOL!!!
When I buy curriculum, I always search my resale outlets first (ebay, homeschool boards, etc). This year I paid LESS than $75.00 for the whole of our core! Part of that is because I had one curriculum that we are carrying though to this next year, and one part that I received as part of a reviewer. However, here is what I paid and what it is worth retail:
- Epi Kardia 1st grade
($95.00 each semester or $200.00 for the whole year)$0.00 (reviewer copy) - Math U See Alpha
($100.00 +shipping)$50.00 total (ebay) - Bob Jones Phonics & English
($105.00)$6.50 total (ebay) - Bob Jones Science (as a followup & enhancement to the Epi Kardia lessons)
$70.00$6.50 (ebay) - Story of the World (continuing very passively from last year)
$66.00$16.00 (already had one part)
