I think I have it figured out now....
and I have ordered almost all of my new curricula. I state in the description of myself in the sidebar that I am a Christian. Lately, I have felt the need to show our faith throughout our school work and not just through an extra class tacked onto the schedule. This accounts for some of the choices that I've made.
We will be covering in our new school year:
For Sweet Pea 1
RightStart Math
Prima Latin going into Latina Christiana
Christian Studies by Memoria Press (2 days per week)
Bible Study Guide for All Ages (New Testament 2 days per week)
Classical Writing-Aesop
Spell to Write And Read (meshed somehow with Aesop)
Real-Science-4-Kids (1st half of year)
Apologia Elementary Botany (2nd half of year)
D'Aulaire's Greek Studies
TruthQuest American History
Poetry readings from Tanglewood (Stevenson, Dickinson and various others)
Read alouds and readers from the Great Books List and Highland's List
Artistic Pursuits (once/twice a month)

I don't think I've forgotten anything! ;)
I am very curious though about a co-op here in town that will be following the Classical Conversations setup. It is lots and lots of memorization. But hey, I can add that in on my own, can't I? WITHOUT paying over $300 per child.
