Beyond Users - What unit are you in?

We started really late and we are about to start Unit 14.

Any other late-starting families around? Comfort me!

Re: So Discouraged

I have seriously considered putting them in private school next year and then teaching at that same school. I am at my wits end. Help? :| I have exactly the same option available to me. Then I think of all the "hidden" curriculum they will pick up at school and that at the end, I would feel exactly...

Re: Found this note from my daughter

Aww! That's sooo sweet! What a contrast to my children's atitude today! We live in a campus and all the other children have returned to school today. Yesterday, Sunday, they put so much pressure on my children to come to school "just for a week, to see how you like it" My 8 yo dd was ready to follow...

Re: Really enjoying HOD!

Yes, I can say the same. We are doing Beyond with a 7 and an 8 year old and Little Hands with a 2 and 4 year old.

Couldn't be happier!

Re: Are we behind?

No!
We have just finished week 8 of Beyond and week, errm... let me see... week 3 in Little Hands? Who's counting? We continue at our own pace and LA and Math have their own pace altogether, never correlating with the guide.

Who's counting?

Re: How many of you are back to school this week?

We are, we are, we are the studious ones!! LOL. We are finishing week 8 of Beyond and week 3 of Little Hands. Everything goes as planned, smooth sailing! We are all very happy with the program. The 2 year old loves the rhymes! My 7 yo boy loves DITHOR and has grown in leaps and bounds in his spellin...

Re: DITHOR half speed

So you don't read the reader everyday?

It sounds like a good plan.

We do things a little bit differently.

We read everyday, but we we keep DITHOR flexible. We don't feel guilty if we don't do DITHOR everyday. :wink:

Re: When do most start LHTH?

We are doing LHTH with a 2 year old and an almost 5 year old. The 2 year old is hardly ready for it, and the 4 1/2 one knows many things already. I do it mainly because I want to give the little ones some concentrated mummy time. I have a 7 yo and an 8 yo doing Beyond, and it is very easy for me to ...

Re: Do you supplement? If so, with what?

We use HOD Beyond the way it is and I tell you, there is a certain sense of freedom in doing that! The children learn modern Greek and Violin and Piano, but I don't consider this supplementation. Rather, extention of the curriculum in that we add new subjects, not supplementing the ones that HOD has...

Beyond or other program in double speed?

Hi all,

I have ordered Bigger for my 7 and 8 yo. I am thinking of getting Beyond as a better fit. Do you think it is a good idea to do Beyond double speed rather than Bigger half-pace?

Has anyone done any program double speed?

Thnx

Re: I want to be the type of mama......

What I have planned for her, is to combine her with her older sister (4) right away in the morning for LHTH. You wouldn't necessarily have to do that program, but make sure they have "Mom-time" in the morning. That should make them feel secure for a while because they've had your attention right aw...
