We did a lot with integrated curriculum. I still. When you get closer to 6th grade, I can send you my materials.<br /><br />We integrated Judaics in with secular studies sometimes in a theme-based approach, but sometimes just wherever it worked.

It's worked well for my kids. <br /><br />I really enjoy your posts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05893086894664836717noreply@blogger.com
