Re: Charlotte, NC Co-op

I am in Gaston Co. and joined a local hs group this year. To my knowledge, I am the only one using HOD. I have tried to talk to others about it but like a pp said, I think everybody thinks HOD is "light". Since this is my 1st year hsing, they probably think I don't know what I am doing :D To be hone...

Re: OT prayer dh passed out

WTW, I am praying for you and your dh that a diagnosis is made quickly so that any needed treatment is began in a timely manner. In the ED I work in we see many cases of syncope (mostly male) and run the usual tests, CT, EKG, blood work and UA. Most of the time the problem is dehydration or hypoglyc...

Re: Where should my friend move to?

I second NC! Our laws are not that rigorous, you can use whatever curriculum you choose. You have mountains on 1 side of the state and beach on the other :lol: What can be better than that :D You have historical sites all over the state, Kitty Hawk, Revolutionary War sites, many--many things to do i...

Re: Wondering what to do

some people spread it out over 2 years by doing 17 units the first year and 17 units the 2nd year. you could add extra read-alouds or use the extra books in the appendix to further your study of each unit. also, you could use DITHOR for 2nd grade to complement your reading program. HTH!

Re: Supply List Little and Bigger Hearts

I would say masking or duct tape, plenty of poster paper or drawing paper, a map or globe, paints, markers, balloons, notecards (you could even use scrap pieces of paper), those are the first few things I can think of.

Re: HODie Retreat

Thank you Jessi, you have made me blush :oops: I am so glad I'm not the only one up at midnight catching up on the HOD board :D I really do love this program and the love of God that I'm putting in the hearts of my children.

Re: OT- How many states have you been to?

Oh Ashley, I so envy you :mrgreen: When I was young I went to tractor pulls all over the Southeast with my dad. My grandparents live in New Mexico and we always drove there and back. I have uncles who live in Nevada whom we have driven to see 2 or 3 times. Mind you, this was driving through, not rea...
