I used the Checklists from Shower of Roses blog. She has made a modifiable version available so one can custom make it to their children’s curriculum. To download the modifiable version you mut scroll to the bottom of this post.
The checklists are great because it helps to see the progress your children are making in regards to their studies. Hope they help.
