Re: School 4 Days a week - thread please?
I would also LOVE to find out how others have done this successfully. We also are expecting our 5th baby in spring. I have never done a 4 day week and am a little nervous to try it...seems like a 3 day week-end could cause a loss of information ?:) I was thinking of taking Fridays off too as we do a...

CTC-geography book question??
Just finished up CTC unit 1 with my 10 yo DD. We are both loving it...it seems to take a long time though...not sure how to speed it up..maybe just getting used to it. Anyway, my question is about the Geography book on the Holy land. There are'nt really maps in the book and it keeps refering to the ...

Re: Little Hands to Heaven...anyone use it for barely 2 yr old??
Thanks everyone for sharing your experiences...it was very to helpful to hear what did and did not work for you. I'm thinking to wait until next year when he will be just turning 3. I can always add it in this year if he develops enough that I feel it would be beneficial. When I found HOD my 3rd dau...

Little Hands to Heaven...anyone use it for barely 2 yr old??
I have a DD in CTC and 2 DD in Beyond. I was considering getting Little Hands to Heaven for my little guy to use but he is just turning 2 in 4 weeks. I was thinking of starting it slow with him just for fun...mainly to help me to spend special time with him each day. He is very bright and has a huge...

Re: Questions about using CTC...
I would be jumping up and down too! I think that's what I want most for my kids is to enjoy their time with the Lord and develop in them a daily habit. That's what I love about HOD! Would you mind telling me what kind of notes you put in her binder? Is it just what is in the Bible quiet time box? I ...

Re: organizing for Beyond...any help???
This has been so helpful! Thanks! So, here is what I'm thinking so far... A 3-ring binder with a copywork, history/geography (do they have any papers for geography ?), art, science, english, storytime...am I missing anything? Then I bought those composition journals at Wal-mart with the blank space ...

My 10 yo dd will be starting that this year in the fractions/decimals...how have you liked it and what level is he using? Do you feel it is eno...

Questions about using CTC...
I will be starting CTC with my 10 yo DD next week and just wanted to clarify a couple things... 1. In the Reading about history box on day 1 they do research. Are they to write down the answers or just orally tell you what they found out? If you have them write it down, where do you store it? Also, ...
