We're going to begin after the holiday in July with map skills and easing into our routine. Then it's a trip around the world! Each three week unit (with a week off in between) will center on a part of the world and will incorporate Language, History, Social Studies, Geography, Reading, Math, Science, Art, Field Trips, and Life Skills.
Here are our units.
Unit 1 : Oklahoma
Unit 2 : United States (by region) ((perfect timing! we'll be in northern California!))
Unit 3 : Canada and Mexico (or North America)
Unit 4 : Central and South America
Unit 5 : Africa
Unit 6 : Europe
Unit 7 : Middle East
Unit 8 : Asia
Unit 9 : Australia
Unit 10 : The Arctic and Antarctic
Unit 11 : Space
This gets us through May of 2016 when we'll take a month off to enjoy Summer!
Our method is a little mix of unschooling and unit study. I will not be purchasing a curriculum this year. Fortunately, in Oklahoma, there aren't many rules for homeschoolers. So we're free to learn as we wish!
How do you homeschool? Do you use curriculum? Online school? Make it up as you go?
