Homeschooling elementary school 2020-2021

(A few of these might be affiliate links, where I might get back a tiny (tiny!) piece of anything you spend. Most are simply links to the resources themselves.)

This year, my kids range from 1st grade to 11th grade. And as usual, they are all based at home. I started typing the plans out and goodness, but the post got long! So I broke up the post into general school ideas, high school and middle school, and this post.

***If you aren’t interested in homeschooling, please just skip through these few posts. This is a hot topic in my neck of the world (and internet) right now!***

That’s one of the best things about homeschooling – each kid gets a specifically tailored experience!

Here are our plans:

6th grader: This guy is the definition of a hands on learner, but luckily, he can really buckle down and do (reasonable) seat work as needed. When there are choices, we bring out manipulatives and get him doing, though.

4th / 5th grade: (Yes, she’s right on the cusp) This child really, really misses her friends, so we are making sure to build in partners for her when we can. Most of the above applies to her, and once we can get her back out into the world, she will happily go back to all her clubs, lessons, and playdates.

A good book to get started with – although apparently, coins are in short supply right now!

1st /2nd grade: (Yes, she’s right on the cusp, too.) Most of the above applies to her, although she does less. She’s very creative, but not a strong reader yet, so we’re taking that slowly and letting her build her confidence.
