The First Grade Bundle gathers a full year of living books for children transitioning from read-aloud dependence to early independent reading. These selections combine mathematics, handwriting, geography, nature study, music, and a growing library of classic children’s literature, many presented in collected volumes and boxed sets that give a child more than a single story. This bundle is designed to support the First Grade year alongside the Chapter I Box Set, giving parents a ready-made shelf for daily lessons, copywork, map work, reading practice, and the gradual formation of confident, joyful readers. If you do not have the Kindergarten Bundle, The Handbook of Nature Study should be added separately. It is a core text in the Chapter House curriculum across all levels.
