How to Homeschool First Grade

Do you feel overwhelmed thinking about homeschooling? I’ve created weekly homeschool schedules so that you can see what you are doing each day with just a glance. The WHOLE SCHOOL YEAR of planning has all been done for you! Keep reading to find out more!

Math: Math-U-See Alpha Universal Set (use the placement tool to decide which one your child is ready for).  As some bonus activities, we will also use games from the Osmo Genius Kit to continue to practice and reinforce math concepts. Games like Numbers, Tangrams (both in the Genius Kit), and Pizza Co are some of my favorites.

Spelling: Traditional Spelling I with the Teacher Guide

Language Arts: StoryTime Treasures (StoryTime Treasures Teacher Guide) and More StoryTime Treasures with the Teacher Guide.

Science: Adventures in Creation: Level 1 from MasterBooks. I love how kids learn about the world through the lens of the Creation Story!

Social Studies: Me on the Map. I’ve found lots of fun videos to supplement the topics for each week. If you want to see the video recommendations, download the First Grade Weekly Lesson Schedule for all the details.

Handwriting: The Good and the Beautiful Handwriting Level 3 .

Music/Art/PE: I’ll be doing the same activities/lessons for Jeremiah and Evelyn. See the description in the Kindergarten section of this post to see what we will be doing.
