Weekly memory verses are selected from Proverbs to strengthen handwriting skills as well as biblical character. For science, the focus is nature. The Teacher's Manual also lists goals for first grade math, and suggestions for an informal, hands-on approach that does not require a workbook or textbook. If you prefer daily lesson plans and a workbook, you will need to add another math program. We highly recommend Drawing With Children , a drawing program that really works, even if you are not gifted in that area.
Kids usually love it and do really well.
So do parents. We have been writing and piloting the program with ourchildren. It works well, the children enjoy it, and we use the Biblestory component for our family devotions. This is an academically and spiritually sound program. Even if you did not use our kindergarten program, you can begin with first grade if your child has mastered typical kindergarten readiness skills and is ready for first grade work.
