Homeschool 2018-2019 Fall Term

This post contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission at no extra cost to you.

I can’t believe we are already in the month of August! Which means I needed to get my homeschool lesson plans all figured out for this coming school year. Our little Scarlett is 4 and won’t be 5 until March so I wanted to do a little preschool and a little kindergarten this year. She absolutely LOVES “doing school” and last year I didn’t really do much planning and we weren’t able to do as many projects because I wasn’t prepared with all the supplies needed.

This year I was determined to have a plan and, more importantly, a supply list. I was able to make a complete supply list for each week so hopefully that will be helpful to you. I know I tend to get a little overwhelmed with all the supplies needed for projects so I figured out everything I needed for each week so I can do a weekly shopping trip.

This is going to be a long post because I am going to put up what we are doing every week. I have links to all of the resources and I also made a 2018 School Year board on Pinterest.

Here are the links to download the supply list/schedule and my FREE printable math worksheets. We will be doing school 5 days a week but 2 of the days I do daycare in my home so I made Monday and Tuesdays our light day so we can enjoy playing with friends and Wednesday-Friday I will be able to have more one on one time so we can do more. I just love how flexible homeschooling is!

Alrighty here it goes 🙂

WHEW! If you are still reading you’ve now read 2,309 words. I tried to make this into a PDF file but I wasn’t able to get the links to work properly so this is what I came up with for now. Hopefully in the future I will be able to make it into a downloadable file for everyone!
