I wasn't sure if I would have her work with Social Studies or Science this year, as or main focuses are reading and math but I found these wonderful workbooks (by Scholastic of course LOL) and I decided that we could do a few (2 or 3) classes a week of Social Studies.
I was also able to get some great worksheets and lessons off of www.enchantedlearning.com to complete the 38 week year.
We will be using Scholastic Maps Workbook (SMW), Teacher Time Savers Workbooks for the Seasons (it has workbook pages for the different holidays and dates of notice through our the year) (TTS), and Our Pagan Family (OPF) workbook for the Pagan holidays and sabbats throughout the year.

Hi, I'm really enjoying your blog... I'm homeschooling a first grader next year so seeing your plans is really interesting to me! Can I ask where you got the Our Pagan Family book you're using?
I found the Our Pagan Family book on Amazon quite by accident. I will get you the publishing information soon!
That would be awesome, thanks! I'll see if I can try to find it on Amazon myself, as well. :-)
