Feeling The Pressure

Since my husband was out of work for the entire month of May, we have not yet been able to purchase our curriculum for the coming school year.  I am feeling a wee bit panicked but I know that I have plenty of time still and God will provide. There have been a few changes in the curriculum choices since last I posted.  We will still be using MFW Exploring Countries & Cultures for Tim and Tori.  They will still be using Apologia Astronomy next year since I didn't finish it this past year.  They will still be using Mango Languages and also LiveMocha for foreign language.  Instead of Math-U-See for math, we are switching to the Life of Fred curriculum, this is going to be very interesting. Now, my oldest son will be joining us this year.  He will begin with MFW Ancient History & Literature.  He will do Mango Languages and LiveMocha Russian, Introduction to Logic, Apologia Chemistry and Life of Fred Geometry.  I am very excited about our curriculum choices and believe it is going to be a very interesting and exciting year for us.  It will be our very first entirely P.S. -free year and I am VERY excited about all the opportunities this will open for us. Please, share your curriculum choices or things you are excited about for the coming year.

We will be using MFW ECC this year as well. I am excited! Please let us know what you think of Life of Fred once you get started. We are using SIngapore but I might need to switch my oldest son sometime this year or next. Sounds like you have some fun things planned for your curriculum this year.

I will be sure to post about how its going once we get started. I picked Life of Fred because it doesn't seem so dry, like it might actually make math entertaining for those who don't like to simply do math for math's sake like me :). Are you getting the deluxe ECC?
