Finalizing 5th Grade Plans/Preparing to Start

 Although our plans are generally the same, we've made a couple of small changes as we looked at samples, talked over what we want to do, etc.  I still haven't solidified a weekly schedule for ourselves.  I might just throw everything into a book basket and fly by the seat of our pants without a schedule.

We start the second week of June (after Vacation Bible School).
