Hymns in Bigger

How do you do the hymns in Bigger? Do you just put the CD in and sing the suggested verse(s) for the day or do you do something more? We've just been doing exactly what is written in the book, singing the suggested verse(s) but thought I maybe missing something.... :roll:

Re: Stories of Great Americans for Little Americans

It looks the same to me, just the page numbers are off and the first part in my book is called, "The First Governor in Boston" but reads the same as the first section in your book. And in my contents it shows a section called, "Franklin Asks the Sunshine Something" but the book you linked to does no...

Re: Help!!! With BOYS!!!!

Mary, Laura and Julie, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! Your advice and wisdom is what I was looking for. I am guilty of letting him get away with more because he is the "baby" of the family (even though he is a twin, he is the youngest of the twins so it makes him the youngest of the family) and...

Help!!! With BOYS!!!!

Ok, so I know that Carrie and Julie both have boys that have done HOD and I'm sure there are others so I need HELP! One of my 5 yr old twins says, "Mommy I hate school! School is boring and I'm never doing school again!" He's a very wiggly little boy. He literally bounces (like Tigger) through the h...

Re: Husband encouraging a different curriculum

We tried Sonlight for K. It was not for us. Some of the books were too mature for our son at the time and others were just too sad, dreary - can't really think of how else to describe them. I was warned of this and wish I would have heeded those warnings! There were parts I liked but overall it was ...

Re: Anybody here doing LHFHG?

We just finished Unit 2 and will start Unit 3 on Monday. We are going on vacation so I didn't want to start a new week then have to stop in the middle of it. I know, I need to relax more and realize that Day 1 does not have to be Monday and Day 2 does not have to be Tuesday, but hey, that's how I wa...

Re: How is R&S Preparing to Build (English 2) going?

We are doing R&S English 2. This is our 2nd week and we have started doing the lessons orally. I was making him write it out in a notebook but our days were dragging on, and on and on and you get the picture! Then I read the front part of the manual (I recommend reading that first now LOL!) where Ca...

Re: I Was So Nervous (Bigger)

Thank you all for replying, it's great encouragement. I'm just so proud of our son, he is doing so well. It is a struggle for him and he is being challenged more than he ever has before but DH felt like it was time and I must say he was right! Mommy wanted to hold back but in my heart I knew he need...

I Was So Nervous (Bigger)

I was so nervous about starting Bigger Hearts with our almost 8 year old! If anyone read my posts about supply lists, etc. you probably read into it. :D And our first few days of BHFGH were HARD!!!! But we kept going and pushed through and we finally, today, finished an entire days lessons in one da...

Re: Supply List Little and Bigger Hearts

Hi Carrie. I do appreciate that the lesson plans are open and go! Greatly do I appreciate that aspect!!! With my personality though, I need to have a list of supplies ahead of time so that I'm not "caught off guard" so to speak. If I don't have them handy, I probably won't follow through with the pl...
