Below we have assembled the primary components of our kindergarten homeschool curriculum.
Reading & Writing
Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons is effective. It brought both of our kiddos from not full alphabet recognition to fluent reading (2nd grade level) in the promised number of lessons. It is not hyper engaging or colorful. But it is profoundly effective.
Don’t forget your local library!
Math
KinderMath is game based. Its differentiated lesson plans are well organized and comfortably scripted. Each unit includes links to readings on youtube of recommended books to accompany the skill.
Science
As long as you’re bathing your kids, you might as well incorporate a little science! Learn While You Scrub, Science in the Tub is inquiry based science with minimal required preplanning/supplies.
Bible
Our kids begin each school day spending 5-10 minutes at one of five devotion stations:
- Missionary prayer cards and globe
- ABCs of Bible verses
- Cedarmont Kids CDs (e.g. Hymns)
- Bible Storybooks (Some favorites include
- Bible App
Our son chose to listen to The Bible Experience every night before bed, making it through the whole Bible in less than a year.
Geography
The knowledge of world geography kids can soak up from a world map shower curtain is astounding.
