Yes, it's on the HOD Sample Book List under adventure, level 2/3.

How about The Littles, Stuart Little, or My Father's Dragon? Your library probably has all of them.

So precious!!! And congratulations!!!

Hi! Here's a thread about writing in HOD. http://www.heartofdakota.com/board3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8731 Carrie's response describes the amount and types of writing in the different guides. I haven't done BIgger yet, but I have the guide, and I've looked into WWE, and I think you'd be duplicating a lo...

PM'd you info about star wheels for the Southern sky

This week I overheard my ds & dd making "biography bags" for their stuffed animals and dolls, including Woody and Buzz.... In the pool they wanted to know if there were currents and could we make some? They proceeded to test the pool pump's suction with bathtub boats and other floating toys... I *lo...

Hi Renee, and welcome! Have you looked at the placement chart for your son? http://www.heartofdakota.com/placing-your-child.php He sounds like my son at that age - a little slower to develop his fine motor skills, not interested in or very good at coloring, drawing, or attempting to write. I just ba...

Are there any samples of dictation from Preparing and CTC ? Here is a thread where Julie gives samples of the 3 levels of dictation in Preparing. It's the last one on the page. http://www.heartofdakota.com/board3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1221#p9314 Please don't be discouraged. God has given you the desi...

Welcome! I agree with the pp, definitely check out the placment chart. http://www.heartofdakota.com/placing-your-child.php It does sound like your oldest would do well on her own, and the guide would have scheduled times for you to be going over certain subjects, like Bible, with her to make those c...

Thank you so much for your response ! I too feel LHFHG is best for him , but what do I use for his advanced reading & spelling skills ? I am interested to hear from other people who use LHFHG with advanced children in these areas. I guess I will continue what I was doing until now which was CLP Bui...

So, this will be considered your K year? Is that how you are doing it? Just starting K early? FWIW, I started K materials with my ds when he was 4.5, but we didn't call it "kindergarten" until he was the age needed for public school kindergarten. His birthday is in October, so he was almost 6 when ...

I did LHFHG with a 2.5-3.5yo tagging along and it was great to have her join in, but we'll be doing it "just for her" (as I tell her) next year, and I can tell it will be an entirely different experience because of her interests. She remembers some things, like the science activities, but not much e...

Hi and welcome! Have you checked out the placement chart? http://www.heartofdakota.com/placing-your-child.php If you're comfortable with how your dd fits into the LHFHG skills, then it will probably be fine to take it slowly. The first half covers the Bible, so the stories would be familiar. How doe...
