It’s the end of September, which means that we’ve settled into our next full year of school. We continue to do a lighter school day during the summer, which means finding a rhythm for the school year isn’t too difficult and some of the pressure of getting everything done in 36 weeks isn’t so pressing.
Today I’m sharing each of the curriculums my kids will be using for the 2019-2020 school year. If you are interested, you can find my reviews of last year’s (2018-2019) curriculums here. We’re using many of the same materials this year!
