Wondering minds have asked me what I am planning to do everyday with Claire. Here's my tentative-lets-see-where-it-takes-us-plan:
(1) Reading - Finish the book Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons. (We are on lesson 53.)
(2) Math - My sister-in-law Jeannette suggested Singapore Math instead of Saxon. She brought her curriculum for me to look at yesterday. It is just as substantive, but visual and LOTS LESS EXPENSIVE than Saxon. I have to look at their website and "test" Claire to see which textbook I need to buy (rainbowresource.com).
I also ran into the website Math Fact Cafe which is a pretty neat resource.
I will probably also buy the The Story of the World series by Susan Wise Bauer to read to the girls. I've heard great things about them from so many people.
Other than that I plan on doing many trips to the library and reading a plentiful and eclectic assortment of books to the girls. We'll see where that takes us!

Hey Erin, thanks for posting some of your resources. I just printed a bunch of the math worksheets for Grace and Josie to practice on. I am glad to hear school is going well for you so far.
