I have started to get some books I will need for next year, am I bonkers? This is the earliest I have ever started. SCM makes it so easy, this was our first year and it has been our best. No need to shop around, why mess with a good thing!
I have been starting to get that itch, which is ridiculous since we missed a lot of fall school time, so we are so far “behind,” it’s crazy. Way too many books and lessons to get through before I really need to start planning next year. Guess it’s just that time of year…. Have fun planning!
I don’t think it’s crazy. I have started a list of things I need for next year and am thinking about what I want to do for science next year as well. I am also getting some of the books needed for our next history module too. I like research and planning!
I have started to work on next year too. We usually start a new year at the beginning of June, though I’m not sure we will this year. It may be the end of July…..but either way, getting a jump start on planning helps. 🙂
Suggestion. Go through Sonya’s suggestions for charting out a 12 year plan. You’d be amazed at how little stress you feel and how little urge you have to research and shop for curriculum. It’s like a little 12 step program for curriculum addicts. ;0)
