Makin' Plans...

As we rapidly come to a close on our school year, I cannot help but look ahead to 4th grade and 1st grade and Tot School for 2009/2010. Our school year finishes in early May and typically starts near the end of July. We plan to continue Living Math throughout the summer alongside Five in a Row. (More on those in individual posts.)

Here are my initial thoughts:

My next step is determining how to locate these products at the very best price. Next week is my first homeschool group book sale. I hope to find everything related to Five in a Row on sale!
