My 2025-2026 7th Grade Curriculum Choices
It’s hard to believe that I’m going to be homeschooling only one child this year.
I’m a bit happy-sad.
Happy to see our older son spreading his wings and entering a new phase of life. Sad because it seems that his homeschool journey was so short.
Indeed, it was. Only 4 1/2 years.
He’s going into his first year of high school, while our younger son is entering 7th grade.
After five years of homeschool, last year we finally settled on what really works for him curriculum-wise.
So, we’re more-or-less sticking to those same curriculum choices this year.
Bible
Our church offers an official Bible class for which even the public education system accepts an official grade, as students here can enroll in catechism as an elective from 1st grade.
My children enroll in our church’s Bible class each year. A part of the grade is serving in the church. Both of my children serve in music ministry. Our older son plays drums and our younger son plays ukulele.
Our older son also serves in the sound ministry and school-aged kid’s ministry. Our younger son also serves in the projection ministry.
English and Croatian Language Arts
For English Language Arts, we’re choosing Easy Peasy All-in-One Homeschool for level 7. This curriculum comes with reading, as well.
For Croatian Language Arts we are hiring the same tutor we’ve used for the past two years.
Both boys made incredible progress while working with her.
Math
We’ve used the same math curriculum every year for our boys, except for Robi’s grade 8. We will be finishing up Math U See Zeta, while moving into Math U See Pre-Algebra.
I don’t anticipate that we’ll finish Pre-Algebra this year. But that doesn’t matter, as next year he will be doing Abeka Pre-Algebra.
We found last year that when Robi did Math U See Pre-Al, it was a great introduction into Abeka Pre-Al.
Science
We’ll be doing physics and chemistry this year for science.
I’ve chosen Answers in Genesis God’s Design for the Physical World for physics, while pairing it with Easy Peasy All-in-One Homeschool Physics.
Easy Peasy has great experiments and activities for physics, so we’ll be implementing a lot of those to supplement.
Then we’ll move fully into Easy Peasy for Chemistry.
History
Last year, we completed Story of the World Vol 2. – Middle Ages, and Andrej really enjoyed it. So, this year we’re sticking with it, doing Story of the World Vol 3. Early Modern Times.
We’ll be supplementing with Easy Peasy Geography and Cultures.
Extras
In addition to these four core subjects, we’ll add in Ukulele practice and even some guitar. He has a very natural talent for ukulele and guitar, and I want to invest in that more.
We’ll supplement with this once a week by adding in some music history and appreciation through Easy Peasy.
For Health, we’ll aslo use Easy Peasy’s high school health course.
For Computer, we’ll be doing Easy Peasy, as well as working more on his blog and potentially even learn how to build a website.
