any chance of this coming? in the next year?

well, not really of course. but i just keep finding myself so excited for july 1st. this is when we start lhth for the second time and beyond for the 1st time. we get to do history and science! all in a purposeful way. we get to read chapter books and start learning about writing!! can you believe t...

i haven't gotten to them yet, but i expect i'll buy them. just because then i have them all on hand. we even have an amazing library system, but then i have to make sure i get them ordered so they are for sure available to me and get there to pick them up. life just feels crazy enough, and hod is in...

i didn't read all the responses here, so i hope i'm not duplicating, but i'd look to see if there are certain things in it that she resists more than others. i don't know if there are certain parts that are just not working for you, but this past year the phonics we were using was just not working f...

and dolphingirl, i'm sorry i didn't think to ask you before i posted it. i wasn't thinking at all how any of it could be offensive. sorry all!

here's my journey of why hod. (long, sorry.) :( i used lhth when what i had ordered was too intense for dd. i thought it was going to be too simplistic for me to get excited about, but my dd loved it so much that i just loved it, too. i went back to the original curriculum this year since i'd spent ...

what are PLL and ILL?
thanks!

just had to chime in that i was thrilled to get mine, too. having something to touch and flip through just helps me so much. it was laid out WONDERFULLY. very user friendly!
thanks a million!

dear water2wine, i did not take offense at your answer at all. in fact i appreciated reading the response from someone who is really into science. i also appreciate your response here-explaining where most of the people on this board are coming from. it explains why maybe i could feel a little sheep...

i know that each curriculum that has it's own forum also has it's own 'feel' and purpose. i've been on one where you can ask any question or concern you have about the curriculum, freely compare and contrast it with other curriculums-their merits and weaknesses-etc., and then i've heard of other for...

i actually feel the same way, but since this wasn't my question origionally, i felt more free to post it. :oops: i love hod. i used lhth a year ago, am using it again this year, and am also going to be using beyond this year, but there are some things that i wonder about as well. i, too, have posted...

i hope it's ok for me to cut and paste a question from someone who was on the hsr forums. i was interested in the answers you all would have to give her. thanks! I'm planning on using Heart of Dakota next year, However, I am a bit concerned about the science. As I look at the Bigger program, I like ...

this is SO horribly sad. steven curtis chapman was one of my most listened to singers back in high school. kind of makes you feel a connection. (even though, of course, they have no idea who i am.)

i can really see me using it forever. i used to be tempted by wp, but i don't think i could pull off all the activities. too much work and prep for my personality. i love the kind of activities in hod. sl appeals, too, but theirs never seems terribly cohesive. i like that so much of hod is tied toge...

melanie, actually, we are about finished with mfwk, and i'm just being a super planner. :) :( we have beyond here at home to begin in july. i'm just thinking and planning for next year. (i like to mull over my options for awhile in advance. then buy whatever i am going to use in the early spring to ...
