Re: A little schedule change, and WOW

Totally encouraged by your schedule! I sat and wrote out my plan for when I start HOD after reading yours. Sort of did a similar thing...won't post the whole thing here, but just wanted to share bits & pieces. ;o) 3yo LHTH, 6yo LHFHG, 11yo PHFHG (11yo working mostly independent, hopefully) 7:00 -Mom...

Re: Questioning Placement

Thank you both so much! Tonight my husband and I are going to talk about placement, but I am leaning more and more with my original plan... LHTH, LHFHG & PHFHG Although my 11yo has been working independent, his workload has been fairly small. So, I want to make sure that it is doable for him, as he ...

Re: substituting books

Thank you both so much!

I think you are right, that we should just repeat both of books.
It's been a few years anyway, so they might not even remember!
I really appreciate the opinions here on the board! :D

Re: Questioning Placement

Ok, Ok... I'm going full circle! LOL! I was just thinking about how LHFHG is similar to Preparing. I like that. That might be good for 11yo and 6yo to do "together" on their own level. ;o) I think I could give assignments from the Teacher directed boxes, and follow-up with 11yo. It will just take me...

Re: Questioning Placement

Hi, it's me again. LOL! So, I'm thinking... after looking again at beyond... I think she would do ok, but she is probably more suited to Little hearts. I think it would be best to work at a first grade level though maybe. The more I thought about it, I am going to have her "help" me teach with LHTH,...

Re: Questioning Placement

Just wanted to mention a few more things... If possible, I want to focus most of my attention on my dd (6yo) this next year. I can guarantee she will want to do more than one day in a day - she does that with ALL of the school we do! She did that with LHTH I remember. I'm not sure if I would rather ...

Questioning Placement

Ok, so I know I should place a little "lower" when I first start with HOD, since they build upon each other, but I am wondering if I should place my children differently than I originally thought. Let me just say where we are at again... I'm looking to start when the children will be the following a...

Help me go cheap!

Still haven't quite decided whether to purchase HOD yet, but I am beginning to feel more and more peace about it. I don't want to just jump, so I am spending some time in prayer & discussion with my hubs. In the meantime, I will probably keep asking a lot of questions so please bear with me!! I have...

substituting books

So I'm looking at Preparing Hearts for His Glory. We have read Hero Tales before. Any ideas for substituting? We have also read through "Finding Constellations" before & it was an AWESOME book! So, we might just read that again & really try to memorize them this time...maybe? Unless anyone has a bet...

Re: Tell me about your Bible time...

Awk! I was found! LOL! Hi Terri, If you only knew the agony I am having trying to figure out where I'm supposed to go next! I know we need a change, but whether it is just a resource here and there or a big jump...I don't know! There is such a great temptation to just have it all laid out for me...n...

Tell me about your Bible time...

Another question here... We have been doing really in depth bible study working through genesis into ruth for the last few years. I loved how much time we spent in the bible. I am wondering how your daily time in God's word looks like in HOD. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the scripture memorization!! Other tha...

Kindergarten or 1st?

So, my daughter will be 6 years old. She is not reading, so we would be going through the phonics lessons. She writes really well. She loves to write and has gone through the Happy Handwriting workbook. She also has been working through horizons math k and zoomed through her workbooks. She is in the...
