Little Acorn Learning Eileen Foley

The Little Acorn Learning First Grade Curriculum is comprehensive, artistic, nature-based and beautiful. You will find a love for teaching your child and the natural world that you never knew you could experience. Everything is planned out for you with a supply list ahead of each week (most simple items found in your own home) as well as a recommended book list.


Based on weekly themes, the story, number, and letter of the week will take your child on an adventure of exploration, magic, and a true love for learning.


This Autumn Semester is the very first book of the First Grade Curriculum three-part series.


The full curriculum includes 36 weeks of lessons. The Autumn, Winter and Spring Semester books each have 12 weeks of lessons and lead into one another for a full year of academic learning.
