Curriculum choices...and choices...and choices...2016 - 2017

There are so many choices!  I'm sure it doesn't help that I'm somewhat of a nerd (but that I mean, definite, absolute nerd) when it comes to researching and reading anything to do with education, teaching, learning.

I think we'll stick with some things we've used in the past, but we'll end up with some new as well.  

I personally like to use "spines" for each subject area and then add in supplemental resources, projects, and units. This helps me to have an overall picture of where we are going and some overall structure. I also really like creating my own lessons, adding in fun activities, and following whatever rabbit trails my kids encounter. This approach won't work for every family, but for us it does! 

I'm also certainly not afraid to change things up or completely discard something during the year if it's not working out. So, the current plan for next school year may or may not be what is actually used. The beauty of homeschooling - doing what works, changing when change is needed!
