Z is following my free 1st Grade Human Body Study. The links aren't all working anymore because it has been so many years but we are finding enough to do to supplement. We did a cut out skeleton project, it was in various bones and he had to put them together in the right order and glue them down. Then, we bought the Magic School Bus Human Body kit and we have done 3 projects so far and he likes it but he LOVES the poster and stickers that we put on as we learn!
We are following almost the exact same path in history that we did with our daughter many years ago when she was in 1st grade. You can see her list here. This list below is going to be updated as we go on the books relating to history that we read-aloud to Z. Z has a very hard time paying attention, so I try and get books that I think work for him and his attention span and comprehension level, which is both less than K's was at this age. These books go along with the recommendations in the Story of the World Ancient Times Activity Book.
