Re: MFW vs. HOD

Thank you. I also looked at the older guides and think they will be great for my kids. Thanks for sharing. I am hoping our year goes well!

Picture study, foreign language, classical music...?

I am just wondering if heart of dakota includes Charlotte Mason style picture study, classical music study, foreign language, or handicrafts? I have looked through the levels, but didn't see it, but might have missed it.

Re: Sample schedule for teaching LHTH, LHFHG, and BLHFHG?

Thank you Alicia. That is helpful
My children don't work as well later in the day either. I know we will have to do math and reading /phonics in the morning. They love read alouds so those could happen any time.

Thank you. I will check out the thread. I will do the boxes on the left together and I am planning to do the younger two half time and stagger them.

Thanks for the reply. I am guessing I will just have to try different things. Not having a schedule might be better for us too. We shall see.

Re: MFW vs. HOD

Thanks ladies. I have decided to try HOD. My kids will be in three separate guides, which I am a little nervous about, but I know it's the best placement. Are there any threads on here about scheduling the day with multiple young ones? We will be doing LHTH, LHFHG, BLHFHG. So no independent kids yet...

Re: does heart of dakota work for large families?

Ok. So if my kids are in the same guide, then they would finish high school at the same time?
