Your job as a parent is not primarily to keep your child "happy," but rather to train him up to be a responsible adult. One way to begin to accomplish this goal is to give your children responsibilities around the house. Doing chores and getting paid for a job well done, helps the child to make the connection between working hard and making money. Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace Jr. is a great resource for helping you to do this.

The Third Grade Main schedule uses Leading Little Ones to God to teach the main doctrines of the Christian Faith. Choose the Bible you think most appropriate for your child. The Bible memory verses are taken from Leading Little Ones to God. Use the Tracking Your Walk Journal to write summaries of the Bible lessons, memory verses, and prayer requests throughout the year.

Saxon math is an excellent "scripted" math program, that is very easy to teach, even for the math phobics out there. We recommend you use Saxon 54 for third grade. Saxon 3 is more of a second grade math program.

These critical thinking software programs are an excellent addition to the curriculum choices for third grade. It not only helps the child to think more logically, but also has been shown to improve standardized test scores. Reading Detective "games" encourage a higher level of reading comprehension. Editor in Chief helps the child to put into practice the grammar skills learned with Shurley English. Math Detectives helps solidify math facts and math computation skills necessary to build a strong foundation in math.
