Re: Finally figured out why ds balks at HOD. Help?

Another thought to add to the others mentioned would be to have all of his books for the left page in one tote and then all the books to do the right side page in another tote or shelf? depending on how you organize school...

Re: Finally figured out why ds balks at HOD. Help?

I love that way you put that Kathleen! That is a very good way to look at it! I was also thinking the same things as titus2 and tiffanieh. That you could do half speed to start off, then when he is flowing you could up to full speed. Maybe then he would not be so overwhelmed by the number off boxes ...

Re: Boy interest in BLHFHG

I am not really sure that this is much help, but I do believe that Squanto was replaced with the William Henry Harrison book. I am not sure why or if it is temporary? Maybe someone will come along with more info for you! :D

Re: How fast should my son get through books?

I think I remember reading a thread on this before (I will see if I can find it, but I am not sure I can) :D :D ...there are activities and great reasons why Carrie has them scheduled at the pace they are. We have learned over the years that if Mrs. Carrie suggests a way to do things then there is a...

Re: Am I set for Preparing?

I agree with mom23... You do not "have" to have a common place book, a spiral would be fine. It is just for the purpose of keeping Bible verses, famous quotes, and other sayings that are worth keeping and looking back upon later. This is where you would do your "copy work" for this year (she does no...

For the common place book I just took...

Re: Getting Ready for CTC

Leah, Thank you so much!! I looked back at ours and on the first lesson there was writing :shock: soooo I had to try and remember back! I am thinking we must have started to write in it and then decided to mark in our actual Bible for the lesson instead? Anyway, thank you very much for checking and ...

Re: Preparing DITHR?

At the end of each genre there is a project. Each project is suggested to be done for 5 days, so technically there are 20 says for each genre which would be 5.25 genres each year from Preparing up. We could do 4 one year and then 5 the next to get through all 9 genres in 2 years :D :D . I think this...

Re: Using CTC with 2 students ?

Lourdes,

Thank you so much! Yes, I was talking about the Genesis Finding our roots. So I have everything I need then, except the nature journal (whoo). I will just have to get out and look to make a final decision on that! I am super excited to start CTC again!!!! :D
