Re: OT (sort of) Need writing ideas
My son grips his pencil very tightly also. One suggestion I got was to have him hold something (like a balled up tissue or paper towel) in his hand along with his pencil. I have had him do this a couple of times, and it definitely helped those times. You want to use something soft enough that the ch...

Re: Combining??
Thank you Lee Ann for taking time to respond. I will continue letting my 3yo do what she wants to do and not worry about the future now!

Combining??
Hi Ladies, This is our first year of HOD, and so far I am loving it! I have a 9yo ds in 4th grade using Preparing. He is really enjoying the independence, especially with the Draw and Write thru History! That is his absolute favorite which definitely surprised me because he has never been a "draw-er...

Re: Boy interest in BLHFHG
I asked about it when my shipment came, and Mike told me that Squanto recently went out of print. They have replaced it with William Henry Harrison.

Re: Beyond vs Bigger
Thank you ladies for your input! Can I ask one other question? What kinds of skills are learned in Beyond that he will need for Bigger? I definitely want to place him correctly, but I am struggling with not moving ahead. This is going to sound a little silly, but I know It will drive me crazy to be ...

Beyond vs Bigger
Hi All, I have posted only a few times (1st yr HODer) and just got my order last Friday! I cannot tell you how excited I am to begin! I have one question, though. After looking through the Beyond guide for my 7yo, I am not convinced that it is enough for him. When I was looking at the placement page...

Re: Organizing Preparing Hearts
These look like great tips! I just got my order today and started to look through all the books. This is my 1st year with HOD, so I love the organization tips! I have one question, though. Is there a reason for using composition books or notebooks for things like dictation instead of looseleaf paper...

Re: Just discovered HOD
Thank you so much for the information already provided! I think all of you have solidified what I was already thinking and for a lot of the same reasons. :D I had thought about combining younger 2, but I am concerned about my ds attitude about this. I think he may feel a little strange doing the sam...
