HANDWRITING
Handwriting practice should be used when writing Bible verse and doing Vocabulary.
MATH
Mathematics Enhancement Program
ENGLISH
You have two choices:
- Use Scott Foresman Grammar books,
- Use the Scott Foresman Grammar books to create your own Unit study related work.
If you are knowledgable enough in Grammar, I suggest creating your own Grammar worksheets to coincide with the theme of the unit study. I use the Scott Foresman books simply to stay on track, but create my own worksheets based on the theme.
SOCIAL STUDIES
Jewish History
No need to study the ENTIRE Jewish History. Just pick one span of time and study the history within that time period.
Jewish Calendar
Jewish Calendar Converter (convert our current Gregorian date to the current Jewish date)

SPANISH
Even if your children don't know a second language, introducing them to it is always a good idea...it makes it easier for them to learn later on.
Read and Write Genesis 1:1-5 from Spanish Bible (or whatever language you choose)
SCIENCE
Pick from one of the items in each category. Or look through your local library's catalog to find your own.
There are more experiment books listed than simple reading books because I feel children learn concepts best by practicing them. But of course you do still need a book that will EXPLAIN WHY the results of the experiments occur.
I also suggest doing some reading and an experiment each day this week.
*DISCLAIMER: Not all resources are from a CREATIONISM viewpoint, some are evolution-based.
