1	K-8 Annual Planner Lessons for While New Families Wait for Curriculum
2	These are some ideas of lessons you can teach while waiting for your curriculum to arrive. They utilize the free online programs you now have access to. You can build on the study of each topic by adding books from the library, researching online for related lessons, going on a field trip, or even having your student put together an oral presentation on what they learned. Or feel free to create your own lessons! Make it fun =)! I have all the worksheets to go with these lessons on my website for you to print if you choose to use them.
