We've started another homeschool year.
Avril is in 11th grade.
Adele is in 8th.
The girls started online classes last week. They both take art with Delightful Art Co. and Literature with House of Humane Letters, and Avril takes Speech and Debate with Kepler/ Colorado Christian College.
This week is what I'm calling the "Pre-Week." We've started reading some of the texts we will be reading together aloud everyday like the Bible (chronologically) and Land of Hope (for American History) and The Roar on the Other Side (for Poetry), and the girls are doing some of the their independent work.
Adele is reading The Phantom Tollbooth. Avril's started Chemistry, etc.
Next week, we'll begin the complete schedule. We'll start reading everything we plan to read together every morning (including Shakespeare/ Plutarch), and the girls will start all their independent work like math, etc.
It's been lovely having the freedom to ease into the school year adding a little more each week until we adjust to the full schedule.
