Supplementing Sonlight Level D
These links complement Sonlight’s Level D 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. Other levels available here.
