Re: Week in Review: January 30 - February 3, 2017

We are loving our study of Ancient Rome and our modern history study in MtMM! I love how each week has a rhythm. Both boys were shocked when I told them we only had 13 weeks left of school. Time flies when you're having fun :) Here is week 22 in both guides. Unit 22 - CtC http://www.monarchroom.com/...

Re: Week in Review: January 23-27

I'm so thankful for that too! I'm not sure I would have even known to teach the kind of independence HOD has taught my boys. I feel like these days and weeks are flying by! Here is a peek into our weeks in CtC and MtMM :) CtC Unit 21 http://www.monarchroom.com/2017/01/heart-of-dakota-hod-ctc-unit-21...

Re: Week in Review - Jan. 16-20

We are just finishing up our study of WWII in MtMM. I agree with you Julie that seeing God's hand during a time that felt so hopeless was amazing to read about. We have loved hearing the history as told through the stories of so many great and brave believers. Truly, this is the way history comes al...

Re: Week in Review: January 9-13, 2017

I love seeing what you all post for guides we have been in, those we are currently in, and those that are yet to come. It brings back so many memories to see these guides we have done before, but I love seeing the high school guides too. We loved that week in MtMM! It's fun to see how other kids int...

Re: Week in Review - Dec. 12-19

Thank you so much for your very kind words. It's a joy to share our days with HOD <3 I appreciate all of your compliments of my boys' work. One thing I love so much about HOD is that it has given these creative boys a way to develop their gifts each day. I love the creative elements so much! They es...

Re: Week in Review - Sept. 26-30

Thank you ladies for posting! I love to see what's ahead for us, but I also love seeing how a guide we have already done looks in another family too :) We are absolutely loving MtMM this year! This is our second year in CtC, and I'm appreciating it even more the second time around. MtMM Unit 7 http:...

Re: CTC-The Story of the Ancient World question

Christine Miller or Guerber may have drawn from the Hebrew traditions on that story. I know that the Midrash says that they built the tower higher than the flood waters were said to have risen.

Re: High School Chemistry

In the above post I noticed that it is recommended to drop the Evolution study and to add Carbon Chemistry and the Chemistry 101 DVDs. I kind of don't want to miss the Evolution study, but I would still like to make this HS credit worthy. I already purchased Carbon Chemistry and the DVDs. I'm wonder...

Re: CTC questions

I was just having the conversation with another HOD mom the other day on how to make research a little easier. When having to use Wikipedia, a great little tip that helps is to use the Control + F key. It will pull up a search bar on the bottom of your screen. It will help you locate the info you're...

Re: Week in Review: Feb. 10-14

We are having such a great year in HOD. Now that we're in our second year with HOD I see how the progression of skills really does lead to independence. I thought separating my boys into their own guides would be difficult, but it actually has been easier than combining them. They both still take pa...
