Our 3rd Grade Curriculum - 2015-2016

We all fell in love with Sonlight last year, so when planning for this year it was a no brainer that we would move forward with Sonlight again this year.  The girls loved it, I loved it, and it was easy to organize.  I created my lesson plans 4 times a year in 9 week chunks and was able to stay on top of everything all year and I never got behind despite having a big move in the middle of our year.  I feel so confident in our choices again this year and know it will be another smooth well prepared year.  I love that the girls are excited about school again an we're only in our 2nd week!

Here's what we're doing for our 3^rd Grade Curriculum...

I'm adding a few things to Sonlight becuase I wanted a bit more well rounded language arts program, but I do enjoy doing the Sonlight language arts along with everything else.  I'm amazed at what the girls were able to learn and retain from last year and can't wait to see how much they learn this year.  Most of all, I felt peace knowing we had made the right choice when almost every single day last year they asked me to keep reading and just finish up early for the week because they couldn't wait until tomorrow to find out what happened.  It's already happening again this year so I know we're off to a great start!
