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 Beta 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: We will continue with Traditional Spelling II with the Teacher Guide.
Science: Adventures in the Physical World: Level 2 from MasterBooks. Since I taught science, I added in some of my favorite videos that correspond with the topics covered from Magic School Bus & Bill Nye the Science Guy. These video suggestions are all included in the Second Grade Weekly Lesson Schedule.
Social Studies/Language Arts: The really fun part of Second Grade Social Studies, is it corresponds perfectly with the literature from the Language Arts curriculum! I love the vocabulary and discussion/comprehension questions for the novels. We will be reading the following books:
- Prairie School, Student Guide, Teacher Guide
- The Courage of Sarah Noble, Student Guide, Teacher Guide
- Little House in the Big Woods, Student Guide, Teacher Guide
Handwriting: The Good and the Beautiful Handwriting Level 4. I love how it reviews proper print formation AND introduces cursive writing. It also has more activities than just writing, so I know it will be fun for Jeremiah to work on!
Typing: I added in some fun typing lessons to get my kids started using the computer keyboard correctly. They love these free lessons!
