Supplies question for 5-7

You can really use any size you want for these projects. I ended up buying a pack of 10 at Walmart of the 22x18 ones myself. But I have also been known to have my kids use a blank sheet of paper when we were out and I couldn't get to the store! The…

Books That You've Already Read?

My children have always been happy to reread a book for school. They enjoy reading and the literature in the curriculum is so good that it doesn't bother them one bit. Also, there is so much to learn within each unit and I don't want my children to…

Books

I am waiting for our 5-7 curriculum to come in the mail. However, is there any way to know what books I will need to be using the first few weeks so I can get a head start on reserving them at the library. Thank you!

Organization 4-5

I put mine in file folders by unit, usually 2-5 per hanging folder. I put the art supplies up on a shelf. For one child I had the books on the bookshelf. For the younger I put them in the file folder it worked well.

9-11

I'm slightly confused about the order in which you use the units. I totally understand that each unit is paired, however should we complete unit 1 before going on to unit 2,or spend a couple days a week on different units.
