Re: Need help with math...

My daughter is doing MUS Pre-Algebra.

I am going to switch her to Videotext Algebra. Should I make her do Singapore 6A and 6B first?

Thank you

Re: What should I do for my 8 year old?

I am placing him in 2A for Singapore and was debating the LA.
I will do Primary Language Lessons and then begin the scheduled R&S English next year or
go ahead and begin the R&S English.
Do I need to add writing? Any suggestions?

Thank you

Re: What should I do for my 8 year old?

Yes,
I think my 6 year old will do great in it.
I went ahead and ordered Beyond. I also added Time4learning for my 8 year old.
I think placing him in Beyond will definitely help him.

Thank you :D

What should I do for my 8 year old?

I have a daughter in Preparing and it is going good for her.
He just moves way too slow for the program.

Should I move my 5 year old(6 in March) up and put them both in Beyond,
or keep her in Little Hearts and put him in Bigger alone?

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Question about the new Ancients...

Well, I guess it's not exactly a question... Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like you could use the boy/girl read-alouds for readers. I think there is a book for each Genre. I think I will use the History Read-Alouds and use the Boy/Girl read-alouds to go along with DITHOR. I have a boy and gi...

Preparing Hearts...

I have ordered Preparing for my 3rd and 4th grader. I also have a 7th, K, 3 year old, 1 year old, and I am 11 weeks along. I have ordered a program for my oldest and was wondering if I should use that or Preparing. It used Mystery of History and Christian Kids Explore Biology. I was also considering...

How to schedule these...

""George Washington's World" by Foster (for early American History) "The Story of the Great Republic" by Guerber, and "Short Lessons in U.S. History" (for a general overview). You could also add additional advanced reader books to the Extension Pack (like "Poor Richard" by Daugherty, "Abigail Adams"...

What are you using with your 12 year old?

I am using Bigger with my 12 year old and she is doing LLATL, Apples Spelling, Jump In writing and MUS along with it. Oh, plus Apologia General Science. Should we be doing Preparing instead? I have read in your sigantures with your older child doing Preparing and am feeling a little self-conscious a...

Planning..

I am planning for after we finish Bigger. My daughter will be in 7th or 8th grade and using Preparing with us. She will have her own science, but will listen in on our fun science. I need some books for her to use in place of the Extension books. My 5th grader will be reading SELF-STUDY EXTENSION PA...

Well,
I have an 11, 8, 7, 5, 2, and 6 month old.

I put the 11, 8, and 7 year old in Bigger and the 5 year old in Little Hearts and the 2 year old in Little Hands.

I would put the 6 year old in Beyond.
Bigger would be too much work for a 6 year old non-reader.
