Just wanted to pop in and say thank you for posting this, and increasing awareness of how lovely HOD is! You have a very sweet family. Wishing you many blessings!

Hi, ladies! :D Count me in! You're definitely not alone! ;) My husband and I made the (unpopular it seems) decision years ago to not be a part of fb...we've never had an account. Our extended family members actually got mad at us for this, but we've always felt at peace with the decision. Not judgin...

I agree, we need to get more activity here! :D I've never been a part of fb and have really missed the blessing that this board has been in my earlier days with HOD. I still check back here and post now and then, but it seems like so many moved to fb, and it's been quite slow here. Come back, sweet ...

Robbi, The Chemistry 101 DVDs are really wonderful, however they work better as an add-on to an existing course. :D Otherwise, you would have to add so much to them to make them credit worthy. It definitely could be done, it would just be a challenge. :wink: If your daughter is thinking of being a ...

From what I've gathered....its the second book in the Stay in the Castle series. People were asking for a book like Stay in the Castle, but geared a bit more for boys. This is that book. Looks like HOD is including it as a boy option, but I'm sure it probably follows Stay in the Castle quite nicely....

Further to this question, for those of us who have Japan Diary, how long do you anticipate us being able to get the pages that correspond to that book? I have 6 more kids who will (hopefully) use my set of WG books, so don't want to have to purchase the new book to go with the new pages, as I assum...

If I might ask...why is the book being replaced? Is Japan Diary going out of print? I'll quote myself to say, yes it's gone out of print, and the book that has replaced it (Jesus Did Many Other Things as Well: Short Stories from Japan) is a great book! Having used Japan Diary before with my older 2...

That's really great news, Mike and Carrie! Count me in for getting the new guide!! :) As for the new 4th edition biology, it's really wonderful! ;) It's a beautiful edition with bright colorful pages and updated graphics that include the questions right in the text where they apply, instead of a pul...

Just a little follow up..... I recently received an email response/update on my question, from ACE. They stated that the new 4th edition Biology will be available on July 1st, but only the first half of the course, with the second half being made available later this fall. They will not have DVD vid...

I've used the ACE Biology with my oldest, just using the lab dvd alongside, and it worked great. I just wanted the videos for this particular child as it would work well.

Thanks mom24boys! You've been very helpful. It's too bad they won't have these anymore. Thanks for your help in finding answers on this.

Any word on this? Is HOD going to suggest a different course to use if the videos are no longer available? Or can you recommend another resource to use in its place? Thank you!

I noticed these are discontinued, and are scheduled to be updated in 2019. Any word on when this will be available? Or how extensive an update (pace booklets, too)?

Thanks and blessings!

Just adding in that Ragged Dick was such a good book! I ended up reading it aloud on a family road trip, as my son didn't think he'd have time for this title. I never want them to miss a book, because they're all so good. Even my younger kids were begging for "one more chapter." The whole family lov...
