Up until that point, phonics/reading is the most important skill to work on.

But, my kids read so much that I know that if I miss something, they'll pick it up on their own in their own reading time. <br /><br />Glad to know my suggestions are helpful. I'm always eager to hear the recommendations of others, so if you've got any, I'm all ears!Jamie Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07210544168493409813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7628767515693863152.post-53564393860685773572017-08-23T17:31:26.878-07:002017-08-23T17:31:26.878-07:00Something I noticed is missing is science. I'...Something I noticed is missing is science. I'd love to know your thoughts there- what your doing/not doing and why. Science is one thing I often feel guilty about missing (experiments, etc.) because it is something that I enjoyed so much growing up and I know my own children would enjoy if we worked more often at. Apologia is our main science but of course, natural, interest-led science learning is pretty prevalent as well. But, usually it is done basically by reading books. Not much hands-on. :-(<br /><br />Coincidentally, our children are the same ages so I really, REALLY love your insights/curriculum choices/book lists and recommendations because they so perfectly align with the ages/genders of my own children.
