I just sent my order to Rainbow Resource. Courage of Sarah Noble - Spelling Power Activity Task Cards Courage of Sarah Noble Study Guide Exploring Creation w/ Zoology 1:Flying Creatures Spelling Power 4th Edition Loose-Leaf Pentime Transition Grade 2 Easy Grammar Grade 3 Teacher Prima Latina Text Set - The books were a little cheaper in other places, but I got free shipping at RR and that made it way cheaper then buying from separate stores. I am so excited!!
The day your stuff is delivered. Box day is like Christmas morning and birthday all in one. without the cake. Well, I guess you could have cake. It's that much fun!!
I ALWAYS have my stuff by now! This year...Im not even 100% sure of what I'm doing! Rachael needs to do Notgrass government over the summer, 'cause she'll have to take Government on-line with the public cyber-school and I want her to have it from a Christian perspective first. Other than that, she's done for me. She'll take Government and French on-line, and then take (free) college classes at the local community college. Faythe is doing Apologia Physical Science through co-op, Streams of Civilization for World History, and Algebra 1 for math. Language I'm not totally sure of. I'll have to come up with books to go along with her World History for World Literature. Phillip is doing TT6 for math, though I honestly think he'll be done right after Christmas. He'll be doing Apologia General Science at the co-op, and I'm not sure what for Language. He'll be starting over with MOH 1. He did Vol. 1 with the girls when he was pre-k and k.
I am excited, it is UPS ground shipment, so I think mid part of next week!!!! It is better then Christmas, because it is stuff I wanted! LOL Even my kids are excited, because they love science so much, they can't wait to see the new one. I did go with Sarah Noble, I think that my boy will do just fine with it. I think that I am most excited about the Latin. My parents are going to think I have lost my mind when they find out we are teaching the kids Latin. ; )
My two favorite days are the day I get Rainbow Resource mega catalog and Box Day when everything comes that I ordered.
I got my Rainbow order a few weeks ago. I ordered everything from them also to get the free shipping. I love all my new books and I have already done lesson plans for next year for my third, fourth and sixth graders. All I have left is to complete my lesson plans for my nineth grader. I am so excited about next year that I could start tomorrow!!!
Wow Mommyof5- you are awesome! I was just thinking that I could actually do that soon myself! Since I have my work the only thing I need to do is figure the weeks for what lesson in math next year... which I have to find out how we are doing that... My friend's son may be taking the same class so we may dual teach it or something,not sure.
I have ALL of my curriculum for next year already (box day was a week ago), and I'm still highlighting stuff that I want out of the RR catalog!!! I'm also starting Prima Latina next year, and trust me it's going to be fun and easy breezy, IMHO. Mommyof5boys, I am right there with you! My DH is worried that I'm going to be burned out before I even start in September, but I cant help but be excited. I keep getting so many wonderful ideas from u guys!!!!:lol:
It is so fun to share in the excitement with everybody else!! It is hard to finish what we have and not just jump into the new stuff. I have a month, and I think that I will use that month to read the directions for all of it and figure out my game plan. My husband looked at the RR book and said " OH no that is going to be an expensive book to have in the house" LOL
