The yearly curriculum decision . . .

Every year I think I'll choose a "one size fits all" curriculum then I realize that through the year, I usually have already picked up stuff for the next year. So I guess my approach to homeschooling is eclectic. One site we are going to get a lot of stuff from is An Old Fashioned Education, Year 2: http://www.oldfashionededucation.com/2ndgrade.htm This curriculum is totally free and available online. The program uses high quality, out of print children’s literature and textbooks. This will be our first year to use it. You can download all of the Year 2 books (and others too) in PDF format, then you can print it off and have Staples or Office Depot bind them for you. I love that it has Bible devotions too.

And for spelling, we are using http://www.amblesideprimary.com/ambleweb/lookcover/lookcover.html and http://www.spellingcity.com/
