Our Plan for Gifted Homeschooling 2015 – 2016 – English/Language Arts, Reading and Spelling

This post has affiliate links. Please see my disclosure policy for more information.

I am working hard this year to be prepared and have a plan on everything I would like to cover in September, October, November and December. I am going to break down what I plan on covering by subject. This post will focus on English/Language Arts, Reading and Spelling. We will start our day with our new morning routine which also includes Grammar and Comprehension.

We will continue with our Moving Beyond the Page Language Arts Curriculum. It will include reading:

Little House in the Big Woods

The Sign of the Beaver

Native American Animal Stories

Ben and Me

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

The BFG

Madison will also continue EPGY from GiftedandTalented.com. Between EPGY and Moving Beyond the Page we are covered for English/Language Arts, Reading and Spelling. As of right now, Madison is at 4.75 in Fourth Grade EPGY Language Arts, so next year Madison is planning on getting through at least Fifth Grade. The Student Course Details outlines what is specifically covered in each grade. You can save 10% off of any course giftedandtalented.com offers by using my personal advocate code PGEK2FP when checking out.

I really like Wordly Wise 3000, so we will be continuing on to book 4 this year. I think vocabulary is extremely important. Moving Beyond the Page has quite a bit of vocab, so using Wordly Wise 3000 is overkill, but we are doing it anyway. 🙂 We use the Student book, Answer Book and Test booklet.
