We are beyond tickled that we'll be making some changes to our curriculum this year. Going into 2nd grade, we will be using Sonlight!
Having used Alpha Omega's Horizons curriculum for the previous two grades, we were finally in a position to switch to the curriculum we'd have chosen, had finances allowed. We've been pleased with all Michaela has learned by our using Horizons; we just love reading A LOT around here, and Sonlight is literature-based learning.
Sonlight's Core curricula come with a Language Arts portion, so we will be utilizing that; however, having heard some mixed reviews on it as a stand-alone in teaching LA, we chose to supplement it with both Wordly Wise & Explode the Code workbooks, as well. Later in the year, I am strongly considering adding Shurley English to the mix, but I want to get started in the new year and see how that goes first. This curriculum being new to us, I want to play it by ear before making further curriculum purchases.
