Main Program (includes Bible, history, science, art, vocabulary, poetry, independent reading, and storytime): Heart of Dakota's Bigger Hearts for His Glory
Math Programs (Yes, I do more than one. I feel this is one of those basic things that I want it to be reinforced as much as possible, plus Chipette really likes math. We don't do all of this every day. On average math takes us between 30-45 minutes.):
- Math in Focus 2A and 2B (This is our main program.)
- MEP (This is what Chipette calls our "fun math.")
- Miquon (We haven't officially started this yet, but both girls have been playing around with the C-Rods while Mom works on figuring it out! We will only do this one day a week.)
- Singapore's Challenging Word Problems Grade 1 (Chipette does this on her own, about two problems every day. We do this book a year behind as a review of last year's concepts and because those problems ARE challenging!)
- Singapore's Intensive Practice 1B and Singapore's Intensive Practice 2A (Chipette does these on her own as well. We are doing 1B the first half of the second grade year and will do 2A the second half of the year. These are a good way to turn Singapore math into a more spiral program instead of mastery based.)
- Bob Jones' English 2 (We just use the grammar part of this.)
- First Language Lessons Level 2 (Grammar)
- Writing With Ease Level 2 (Composition)
- Winning With Writing Level 2 (Composition)
- Getty-Dubay Italics Book C for print switching to New American Cursive Book 2 at semester for cursive.
- How To Teach Spelling/How To Spell 2 (Spelling)
- Hooked on Phonics Master Reader for the first semester and Developing Better Reading for the second semester to make sure phonics is covered.
The Extras:
- Daily Geography Practice Grade 2 (Chipette does this workbook 4 days a week because she loves maps and such.)
- Scott Foresman Art Grade 2 (Chipette would do art all day long if I let her! We do this once a week.)
- Salsa Spanish videos and Lesson Plans (This is free and teaches conversational Spanish to grades K-2, even Magpie joins in for these lessons. We do this twice a week.)
- Mindbenders Book 2 for Logic (We do two of these problems once a week.)
