2025 Curriculum Choices

            2025 Curriculum and Book Choices: 

10th and 6th Grade


Note: 

Each year, I give a detailed plan of our schedule and our chosen resources. 

Our 2020 schedule and resources can be found here, our schedule and resources from 2021 can be found here , our resources from 2022 can be found here, our resources for 2023 can be found here, and our resources and curriculum choices for 2024 can be found here. 

In addition, you can find free printables of my 2021-2024 schedules here. 

We begin each school year in January, but I choose resources and plan for the following year well in advance. So, I have made these choices to begin our 2025 year with a 10th and 6th grade in January. I will update with any changes or additions throughout 2025.
