Thank you for this amazing blog! My daughter will be in the 2nd grade next year, and this will be our first time homeschooling. I like Oak Meadow, and I noticed you used it in 2008-2009 and not 2009-2010. I want to copy what you've done, so I would like to know how you would change your plans for 2nd grade in hindsight, or if you would? Also on this post you mention history reading from "this list". Is that supposed to be link to another list on your blog? I share your interests, and I'm thrilled to find your blog. Iy males me think I can actually do this. I sent you a message on the WTM forum. Would love to email/speak to you if, possible. carri@cox.net
ReplyDelete"Iy males" ... I should have proofread. I meant "It makes".
