Re: The Reading Lesson Vs. Reading Made Easy for Phonics?

hI used RME with my dd8 (5-6) at the time and it worked fine. However when trying to use it with my ds5, it didn't seem to work as well. TRL is a much better fit for him. All in all I like TRL a little better. RME *Each lesson is 1-2 pages. *Each lesson has a script for the parent to read which can ...

Just one more reason to love HOD

This morning while I was down stairs having my bible/prayer/devotion time, my dd8 (Bigger) came down to go potty. She normally goes back upstairs to her room and reads a little from her bible. Before going up though she told me she left it in the van and since Daddy took the van to work today she co...

Re: cute HOD moment

I thought he was going to ask me to call him "the Great" from now on. :lol: I almost thought Joshua was going to give himself some "great" name as well! It's funny that when I read this story with my dd a couple years ago, his clothing was never even mentioned. Not sure it was even noticed as being...

Re: Pics of Getting Ready for Bigger Hearts

Now, if I could just get my toddler and middle ds to learn to play better together... That's the next hurdle to hop. Did you find anything that worked? I'm having a hard time getting my dd3(just turned 3 today!!! My littlest princess is getting so big!) and my ds5 to get along. They are constantly ...

cute HOD moment

I was reading from History Stories to my ds yesterday. The story was about Alexander the Great. He was loving everything about the story. A boy who became a king, a great soldier. Real Tim Allen "ugh...ugh...ugh" type stuff. Manly man stuff. Until we turned the page. There was a picture of Alexander...

Re: Rev2Rev Table of Contents and Introduction...

Ok, while I won't be using Rev. to Rev. for quite a while, I couldn't help but sneak a peek anyway! Carrie, it looks AMAZING! :D I can't wait to get there (well I can in the sense that I don't wish for my kids to grow uo too quickly!!!). The History projects look so fun. So does the Heros of Faith! ...

Re: Phonics and Emerging Readers during Beyond

I can't answer to doing both phonics and emerging readers at one time. However, by the end of RME, we were able to do a new lesson every day, especially as the last ones were the story (Gideon, I believe). Don't know if that helps at all.

Re: Organization Tip

I buy mine pre-sorted. It's a really large pack from crayola and every year during the back to school sales, Toys R' Us sells it for "buy one, get 2 free". It is a really good deal. I just picked it up about 2 weeks ago, along with crayons and markers (same buy 1, get 2 free deal). It really is so m...

Re: Who is doing Bigger this year?

We started last year doing Bigger half speed with my dd8, we will finish up this year (perhaps early now that we don't split "day" in two???). We started this week. Both the kids and I are loving getting back into school! :D
