This si just cute

Arts

So for the arts I figure we will try to have a visual art project each week and some sort of preforming arts project that we will work on over a period of time say 1 performance a month or 6 weeks or something like that.

Social Studies Curriculum Choices

So as that SS concepts tend to be far above a 1st grader I am not terribly worried about this subject at this point. I am breaking it down like this, history, geography, civics, culture, and economics.
For history we will study seerah. I am thinking we will use a kids book published by Darusalam and a little workbook type booklet that I can't think of the name of at the moment. For geography, civics, and economics we will use Houghton Mifflin Social Studies Our Country. Very simple, and has audio with it. Culture will be incorporated in seerah and the text book.
If he has a hard time with any concept, I doubt it, it will be easy to supplement with the many resources i have found.
