1997-1998 Schedule
Each year our curriculum and schedule changes because our
children and their needs change.
Here's what worked for us in 1997-1998.
Daily Schedule
Our children learn better on process time so we have learned
to master one tiny step at a time.
We use the following programs and if you need additional insight
working with these curriculums, please click and review some of
our ideas. We start the day off with focused academics and finish
it with practical application and fun!

Weaver Program Vol.1 mixed
with Konos Vol. 1
I had been using the Konos program and picked up a used copy of
Weaver.
The two programs work well together, providing me with some
focused
direction along with the freedom I need to teach my moving
targets.
