Welcome to Blast Off!
​
This curriculum is a complete year-long literacy curriculum. It was intentionally written to be simple, low prep, inexpensive, and easy to follow WITHOUT sacrificing quality and rigor. See how easy it can be to homeschool and take this year to get your footing, explore your child as a learner, and then adjust from there.
High-impact instructional strategies are utilized in this curriculum because we understand the importance of building a strong academic foundation. My best advice to you is to INDIVIDUALIZE based on the needs of your learner! Don't feel like you have to teach everything included - I'm a hopeless over-planner so I have provided you with plenty to do. (Of course, you can teach everything included if you'd like!) If your child needs some extra time, feel free to slow it down a bit. If your child excels, speed it up. You may even find there are times when you need to slow down and other times when you can fly right through!
Looking at a new curriculum can be overwhelming at first. Start with the Teacher's Edition. I've laid out each daily lesson in an easy-to-follow format. I've also included almost everything you'll need for this year in this curriculum package.
