Year 2 Curriculum Picks for Luke (2022-2023)

A list of our curriculum picks for my eldest son who will be on Year 2 (or Grade 2) this year. This list is Classical + Charlotte Mason inspired.

A FEW NOTES BEFORE WE BEGIN:

The first question people ask when I share my curriculum picks was how did I come up with this list? Well, in a nutshell, lots of research and reading. This means, going back and forth reviews online.

But eventually, I’ve narrowed it down to trusting the recommendations of Ambleside Online and our current homeschool provider, Living Learning Homeschool. Both are CM inspired. But since we do Classical as well, I tweaked and added other books mostly from The Well Trained Mind. (See related post: How We Homeschool Classical + CM)

Take note that this list is custom made to fit my son’s current skills, interests and sensitivity. I placed notes on some of the categories to explain.
