Our Homeschool Plans 2021-2022

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you know that we have been homeschoolers since the very beginning of our children’s school years.  A few years back, I started writing down our homeschool plans since I would have friends and readers ask me what we used each year.  If you care to look back, you can see what we used in the 2015-2016 year here or in the 2016-2017 school year here. 2017-2018 can be found here. 2018-2019 can be found here, 2019-2020 can be found here, and 2020-2021.

This year, we have kids in 9th, 6th, 5th, and Kindergarten and we are switching it up a bit.  Since we graduated our oldest this past year and our youngest is officially school age, we’ve decided to make some changes.  My youngest 2 will be going to a local hybrid homeschool/private school a couple times a week.  They will be doing all their subjects there and then have homework to work on the other days.  My husband or I will be assisting them with their homework on their off days.

The older two are going to be going to a one day a week program that covers English, History, Logic, and a few other subjects.  Below, I’ll share a little of what we will be doing at home.

Math:

We are continuing with XtraMath.org for my 5th and 6th graders.  It’s a completely free way to make sure your kids understand all of their math facts.  As a mom, I can login and see how they are doing as well and what needs improvement.

For my oldest student, he will start his high school with Math-U-See for Algebra 1.  6th grader will start another year of Horizons Math.  The other 2 will do math with their school and are using Saxon.

Bible:

As a family, we are going to be working through Who is God? And How Can I Really Know Him? from Apologia.

Extracurriculars:

Everyone will be continuing with American Heritage Girls and Trail Life, and of course youth group activities.

 

Hope you all have a great school year!  I’m looking forward to having a lighter load this year and outsourcing more.  Plus, if you missed this on a previous post, I’ll be returning to work after 18 years at home!  So excited about that!
