4 day vs 5 day week

I will be starting HOD this year with my 14 year-old daughter (WG) and my 13 year old son (Rev-Rev). As I understand it, the schedules have put 5 days of work into 4 days. This, as far as I can tell, will make for some long days especially in high school. Has anyone opted to stretch out the workload...

SAT Test prep

Does HOD include any type of SAT/ACT Test Prep? If not, how have you included this in the already packed high school schedule?

Order of completion of daily subjects

Does the order that the subjects are completed on a daily basis matter? Or does each child just pick and choose the order?

Revival to Rev map question

I noticed that students are to label the map of Africa (map pg 49) twice - Unit 7-Day 3 and Unit 29-Day4. I wanted to make sure that is correct.

Template for Signers of Decl.

I created a template for my son to use to document the data for the signers of the Declaration of Independence. His handwriting is too large to fit the information on the back of the card. I plan to have him type the information in the Word doc then at the end of the year print, laminate and cut out...

Re: Pics of Getting Ready for RevtoRev

When you printed the maps did you print both the colored and b&w copies? Are we going to use both?

Questions

I have been reviewing my guides (WG and Rev-Rev) and have accumulated several questions. I am new to HOD. 1. Are there a particular type of pencils/pens you like for writing on the journal pages? My daughter's writing appears so light on the tinted page. 2. Dictation is required several times/week, ...

Re: Schedules

These schedules look perfect! Do you have any idea how I can print them. I'm not familiar with photobucket. Also, I would love to download them so I can edit for my family.
Thanks again!

Schedules

I am preparing to start my first year with HOD. I have a son doing Revival to Revolution and a daughter doing HS World Geography. I would love to find out about how you schedule your school days. I found a lot of schedules for the younger kids, but I would be interested in the upper level schedules....

Spelling

My daughter, 14, has always struggled with spelling. Any suggestion?

using the extension pkg to replace the basic package

My son will be starting the Revival to Revolution this next fall. He will turn 13 in Aug. and be going into the 8th grade. Can he choose to use the books in the extension pkg instead of the basic package? If so, is there a reading schedule for the extension package?

Beautiful Feet vs HOD for high school

This may be a strange question, but I was hoping to get some advice from people who have used or are familiar with Beautiful Feet history. I am trying to decide the difference between BF and HOD. I know that HOD has incorporated more subjects into their guides, but I am primarily interested in the d...

Re: High School Geography

Julie, I believe it was you who I spoke with on the phone. You are AMAZING by the way. It was such a relief to go over the specifics of my children. We just reached a decision tonight on what we are going to order! My daughter (14) will be doing the Geography. She is eager to tackle something diffic...

Re: High School Geography

Sorry to ask this question again, but I have left several messages and emails for HOD and have not heard a reply. I think they may be traveling out of town right now. Anyway, my question: Is this program set up where a child who has not done HOD previously could jump in at the high school level (WG)...
