Everybody started the new school year?
This is only a sample of what I got for this year, but these are the ones we are working on right away.
Sing, Spell, Read and Write supplementing with some other books.
I really like the Word Family Books, because I think they give the kids a little more than their Sing, Spell book. And the Interactive Notebooks had some extra a,e,i,o,u activities.
I am a firm believer in the need for school to be fun. I struggled through school myself, so I understand this first hand. So... Curious George it is! Half the time they don't even know they're learning with this Adventures in Learning books, story-based learning.
I also was impressed with the 180 Days of Reading, not only does it help with their reading comprehension, the K book goes nicely along with our phonics books and it came with a CD that I could print the pages off for both kids to do.
The Abeka books were nice and colorful way to learn about Health and Safety.
I didn't get the math books I wanted... so hopefully these will do.
My daughter is always drawing things, so I made sure I got some drawing books.
And I picked this beginners Geography because it covers more than one grade, no need to buy something next year.
Keeping it fun.... my kids don't know about these books. I'm keeping them hidden. When the time comes to practice reading, there will be NEW books to read, making it exciting!
