Tomorrow is the local homeschooling book fair/conference/vendor fair. I have been making my list (of curriculum) and checking it twice!
I am going to check out the next set of Horizons Math (it's the program we've used since the beginning and we love it!)
Also going to look into purchasing The Story Of the World -- it's a combo history/geography curriculum.
Besides that, I think we're going to go with LLATL again for next year (Learning Language Arts Through Literature) -- 3rd grade for Mattie, and the 2nd grade one for Jonah.
Also going to stick with BJU Press Science (3rd grade for both), and I'm going to look for a handwriting workbook for both of them. Mattie is interested in learning cursive, so I think it would be good to start her on that.
I'd also like to pick up some audio books (usually they have good deals).
I probably won't buy everything I need for next year at the fair, but it's a great chance to look around, comparison shop, and get my hands on the actual books.
In other homeschooling news, I sent my paperwork in to become an official tester for the Iowa test, and I'm ordering those in the next few weeks for the kids.
I really feel like I'm testing them for my own peace of mind -- just to make sure they're "on track".
Well, time to hit the hay -- I have a busy day tomorrow!
