Decided I would do one week at a time now that we are condensing in Classical Conversations and working on material for one week at a time. We also do reading, math, English / Phonics, handwriting and scripture each day. E is working on EEL and IEW for English Grammar and writing papers. P is doing Rod and Staff along with Language Lessons 2, and G is doing Saxon Phonics 2. I am choosing scripture passages each week for them to write correctly for handwriting. They do typing lessons 3 times a week through Typing Instructor on the computer. We are using IXL online 3 times weekly to supplement the Math U See they do. This is working well for us.
