Use one lesson per week, for a total of 12 weeks or 1 Term.  For each lesson (week), use the following selections as a resource.  As a suggestion:  spend 2 days a week on math and adapt the math concept as needed for the age of your child.  You will probably also need to be using another math curriculum, unless you are just using this for a break from your regular routine.  There is a lot of math in the Friend magazine, but it will not provide a complete math foundation.
