Curriculum Planning = DONE (We hope)!

So, I think have the whole 'planning' thing under control! 

Here's our plans for the four children who will be homeschooling full-time.  Our 18 year old and 17 year old will be attending TAFE, but still have a few things to finish up here as well - such as our 'Lord of the Rings' literacy curriculum and the Apologetics Course.

For the rest, though, here is 'The Plan':

God bless,

Linda.

  2. I agree the holidays have come to an end quite quickly. We are ready to begin back at School as well. You timetables look very full. But then our English looks pretty full too.
    God Bless and thanks for sharing
