Next Year's School

Even though we're at the end of our school year and I'm sooooo ready for summer vacation, I'm anxious to get next year's curriculum. We'll begin our 2-year study of American History, and it looks really exciting! Some things we'll be learning (taken from Sonlight Core 3):

• We'll start with archeological information from hundreds of years before Christ
• We'll accompany Columbus on his journey across the Atlantic
• We will

  discover which state was founded on the loot of smugglers and pirates, and which state (then a colony) was founded by men who believed the Bible taught them never to offer military or police protection when their citizens were attacked.

• We will meet Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Lewis and Clark, and many others
• In Science we will study physics, human anatomy, biology, and taxonomy...

This is definitely going to be a fun year! I can hardly wait to start!
