In the beginning, we were extremely limited by Tessa's inability to read and write. I had to find things that involved a lot of circling, underlining, coloring, etc. After a few short months of handwriting instruction, she could write! Acquiring this skill opened many doors.
Assigning grades is ambiguous in the homeschooling world. Some do, some don't. We started kindergarten-level curriculum with Tessa at the age of four years, four months. To keep it simple, I've listed our past and present curriculum by traditional grade and age classifications.
Tessa currently schools about 5-6 hours a day, five days a week from August to May, plus summer enrichment.

I love love love your lists! I am a bit of a compulsive list maker myself. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL! It's my way of staying organized and keeping track of what we do/use. Much easier to access and more fun than printed lists in a binder somewhere. :o)
