SONLIGHT’S “SECRET” COMES DOWN TO THIS: We believe most children respond more positively to great literature than they do to textbooks. To properly use this sample to teach your student, you will need the books that are scheduled in it. We include all the books you will need when you purchase a package from sonlight.com. Curriculum experts develop each IG to ensure that you have everything you need for your homeschool day. Every IG offers a customizable homeschool schedule, complete lesson plans, pertinent activities, and thoughtful questions to aid your students’ comprehension. It includes handy teaching tips and pointers so you can homeschool with confidence all year long. If you need any help using or customizing our IGs, please reach out to our experienced homeschool advisors at sonlight.com/advisors. We hope you enjoy using this sample.
