Getting Back into Routine

I has been a rough couple of weeks for us. I have been trying really really hard to us back on track. I picked a bad time to do that because of various appointments we've had the last couple of weeks but I am determined. Now that this week is over things will slow down and we can start focusing more on our studies. I'm really excited about the curriculum I've chosen for us this year. I think it will be a great fit for our family.


Math
Artist and Nerf Dude are in RightStart level C. There are 150 lessons so if we did one lesson each day it would take us about 30 weeks. I'm planning on us doing two lessons a day so we will be done in about 15 weeks. Level C covers addition and subraction up to 4-digit, beginnig multiplication, some money and geometry, time, measurement and frctions. A lot of it I think they will be able to handle easily. I started with level C hoping to give them a solid foundation in place value and addition and subtraction.
Casanova is in Level A. I'm hoping to cover this in about half the time as well. There are only 77 lessons so if every thing goes well he will be done in two months. If not, that's ok, my goal is to have him finished with Level A around the same time Artist and Nerf Dude are finishing with Level C.
I'm planning on sitting down with the Teachers Guides this weekend to write up my goals. I also have Math Mammoth 1-A and 3-A to fill in on busy days when I don't have time to sit down and work with them.
