PLEASE NOTE THAT SEQUENCE 1 will not be available in print format for 2026-2027. We will re-evaluate again in 2027. Please see the "Printing Costs" tab below for easy, affordable printing information.

Gentle + Classical Sequence 1 has been designed for students in first, second, or third grade to explore literature, catechism, history/social studies, geography, grammar, spelling, (and more) in a gentle, classical way.

Who is it for?

Sequence 1 is the Gentle, Classical answer for first, second, and third graders. Sequence 1 includes literature, catechism, history/social studies, geography, grammar, spelling, (and more) in a gentle, classical way.

Please note that this Student Notebook works very well with older elementary students as well. You may want to add some additional memory work (like the Preamble for example) and assign the chapter books for independent reading and longer written narrations for older students.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If your family desires to include beauty subjects like artist/composer study, poetry, hymns, scripture memory, and virtue definitions, you'll need to purchase 4-6 issues of Morning Virtues or Morning Classics to utilize alongside Sequence 1. This Sequence 1 bundle includes the remaining material (geography, literature, spelling, grammar, history, catechism, etc. outlined in the section below)

What's Included?

In this DIGITAL BUNDLE, you will receive the following items:

  • Teacher's Guide (118 pages)

  • Sequence 1 Student Notebook (213 pages)- This Notebook includes daily work, geography note booking, and all history related notebooking, copywork, activity menus, and workbook pages. 

  • Memory Statement Cards (63 pages) - Your bundle comes with geography, catechism, history, and spelling and grammar cards for daily review and recitation. 

  • Sight Words and Spelling Deck (22 pages) - These sight words and spelling words are centered around first and second grade skill levels. For older students, they can be omitted. 

  • Header Cards (24 pages) - These "subject headers" are useful for displaying a memory statement board. 

  • A very convenient "Getting Started" Checklist to walk you through specific printing and organization of the bundle. 

  • Scheduled BOOKS are NOT included in this bundle or any other G+C Bundle.

  • Planning Grids (40 pages; If you plan to add beauty subjects via a Morning Basket using Morning Virtues or Classics, you'll conveniently find those already added into the planning grids for you.)

  • Geography: The states and capitals of the U.S. plus five U.S. territories and their capitals. (Option to add On Mission for a robust geography, culture, and social studies component.)
  • History: Survey of European and American history from 1450-1815 including topics such as early explorers, the Reformation, important scientists, Jamestown, Pilgrims, Transatlantic Slave Trade, Founding Fathers, multiple units on the American Revolution, the Louisiana Purchase, and Lewis and Clark. 
  • Bible + Theology: Reading of the New Testament alongside catechisms related to sin, the work of the Holy Spirit, prayer, and salvation.
  • Artist and composer study as well as virtue, scripture memory, and other beauty topics will be determined by which of the six Morning Virtues issues you choose to use in conjunction with Sequence 1. 
What else do I need? 

You will need reading curriculum for children who are still learning how to read plus a complete math curriculum.

IF you desire to add beauty subjects to your day (which is completely optional), you'll need 4-6 issues of Morning Virtues or Morning Classics. You may choose ANY Morning Virtues OR Morning Classics Issues to use alongside Sequence 1.

Very Enjoyable

We are using Sequence 1, along with Nature 1, with my first grader and kindergartener this year. We thoroughly enjoy the picture books, fables, memory work, and notebooking pages. We have also been utilizing some of the extra resources recommended in the student notebook and I’m blown away by how much my young kids are learning!

This was so perfect!

I got this bundle for my now 8yo old son. It was the perfect curriculum to use for his 2nd grade year. He’s learned a lot! And it’s just like Erin named her company: Seq 1 was Gentle as it isn’t “rigorous”, it didn’t take hours to complete, and we can sit and cuddle while learning. And it’s Classical with the memory work. It was such a great fit! There’s also enough “breathing room” to add other things in if you want. Like you can add Christmas resources, or do literature studies, you can add her Morning Virtues, or anything else and you won’t feel overwhelmed. I’ve been homeschooling for 12 years now and this is the only curriculum I’ve actually fell in love with.

Sequence 1

I love this curriculum! Our family just finished up the Primer program and we are so excited to dive into this for next year. I will have a first grader and a second grader and I love that I can use this for both of my kids at the same time. I am a big fan of the statement cards!! As a Mama with ADHD they help keep me organized and on task plus they are beautiful. We have loved everything we have ever done from gentle and classical press!
