In Reply to: POLL: those of you doing LCC (or LCC-ish), what curriculum are you using this year for each kid for each subject? posted by dragons in the flower bed
I don't have my LCC with me right now, but this is from my teacher plan and I don't remember what LCC called these or if I skipped some.
Latin - Minimus - as soon as I can find my silly book again, it was lost somewhere around the Thanksgiving declutter for company
Copywork and Recitation - I use various poetry selections for recitation and have her use them as copywork also.
English - We use Baldwin's 50 Famous Stories and various fairy tales and older type books such as Half Magic by Eward Eager and the Just So Stories, Riki Tiki Tavi, and other "classics".
Christian studies - we are reading through a Picture Bible
Modern Studies - We are reading Holling C. Hollings books and doing geography too
Classical Studies - We have a big Roman thing worked together because dd loves ancient Rome. We are also reading Roman Myths by Geraldine McCaughrean which is a huge hit. We have finished SOTW vol 1 and are continuing to listen to it on cd.
Nature study we use CM materials.
Math - we don't do this formally yet, not until she reaches the third grade material.
Music - we are doing recorder and thinking seriously about piano.
Reading - CC has read Little House in the Big Woods and Little House on the Prairie and has now decided to finish reading the magic Tree House and Magic School Bus chapter books (all of both series) which I think are below her level, but she feels good about breezing through them instead of struggling with harder books for a change.
