Time to Pick the Curriculum || 4th Grade Choices Revealed
It’s the most exciting (or terrifying!) time of the year for a homeschool mom – curriculum picking time! If you would like to see a video of all my 4th Grade Curriculum picks, head over to this YouTube video. If you want to see flip-through reviews of a particular subject, be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel and look around there. Please feel free to reach out in the comments if you have specific questions about the curriculum.
You will see that some of my beloved favorites, like Notgrass History, Memoria Press lit guides and Master Books, have made the list again this year. These are the “spines” we’ll use, but we always love to add spur-of-the-moment projects, field trips and library books to the mix. Here is what we will start our 4th grade year with in the fall of 2020:
Science
Godโs Design for Life from Master Books
Math
BJU Press Math 4
Math Antics videos (YouTube)
History (Civics focus)

Phew! That looks like a lot when I list it all out…but in reality it feels really manageable and enjoyable. We won’t do all these subjects daily. I plan to share my daily schedule and example lessons LIVE, so be sure to follow me on YouTube. I also plan to give you timestamped photos on Instagram from our school day so you can get a feel for the flow of things.
Did we pick any of the same things? Did you discover anything new from our choices? I look forward to hearing all about it in the comments!
