2012/2013 Curriculum

I’m actually ashamed to admit how much curriculum I have for a Kindergartener.  I’ve heard some homeschoolers use the term “curriculum junkie” and now I understand.  I think I have learned my lesson and next year plan on attending a homeschool convention to look at the stuff I’m interested in instead of just buying it.  There is just soooo much good stuff out there it’s hard to choose just one 🙂

My plan for Kindergarten is to just focus on the 3 R’s (Math, Reading and Handwriting).  We always do Bible time while eating breakfast.  I also wanted to make sure we were reading a lot of good books.  I printed out several book list and we’ve been making our way through it.  So here is what we are actually using this year 🙂
