Supplementing Sonlight Level B
These links complement Sonlight’s Level B package. Please note that these activities may not be intended for the same age-range that this particular Sonlight package is designed for. Also, many of the educational webpages I have found were put together by public school teachers, and are intended for classroom use, so they’ll need to be modified for homeschooling.
What kinds of resources do you find most helpful? I would love for you to leave me a comment at the bottom of the page letting me know!
