Math: We are back with using Horizons K. I had switched with MUS, but Noah was starting to get confused with his numbers from 0-100 and Horizons is good with reviewing. We had previously finished the first book so we are working on book 2. I had switched mainly because he was complaining about all the writing, but that hasn't been much a problem now. We are learning subtraction which isn't going too bad so all is well.
LA/Reading: We have for the most part finished SL's LA and readers 1 so instead of going to LA/Readers 2 regular I wanted to give him a little more review on this level. We are using Rod & Staff right now. The reading isn't too challenging for Noah and he really likes the reading workbooks and activity pages that go along with this program. I also got the phonics books but am not too excited about them. We both were really liking the ETC books, so if by the end of this book if we aren't liking it a lot more I will go back to ETC. We are still reading some of the Readers from SL and he is doing very well. He even will pick up some of the Dr. Seuss books to read on his own, loving it. One other thing I love about R&S is that their reading is so Bible based, it is like combining LA and Bible, so other than his daily bible readings we do in the morning and at night I don't feel we need a bible program right now.
Core 4/5: We are going through this quickly because he loves the books. We probably do about 2 or 3 days worth of reading in 1 day. This has science/history together in it. It is a little lighter right now. I think we are around week 13, but both the kids are really enjoying this core. I will most likely do this again with Kayla when she is 5 next year.
