Re: CtoC Books - boring or interesting?

THankyou! Thankyou! That's what I was hoping to hear! I'm afraid that you are right, that the books do look boring from their covers, and I shouldn't judge them by that. I love Carrie's book choices in Preparing, so I should trust her for CtoC as well :) I am so glad to hear that they are interestin...

I was planning on continuing on with HOD for the next few years (in sequence) but when I look at the spines for CtoC, I find that they look boring to me. Do you enjoy the spines- Story of t...

Re: Just started and feeling a little overwhelmed!

Thankyou everyone! Today was a MUCH better day! I really think it is just trying to get used to using HOD, schooling three kiddos, just getting back into school in general after our summer break, etc, etc. Yesterday was a 8am to 4pm!! Today is an 8.30am to 2pm - much better!!

They need a little project (even if it is just colouring) to work on while I am busy and they are wai...

Just started and feeling a little overwhelmed!

Hello. I just started Preparing, Beyond and LHTH with a 9, 6 and 4 today. :) I know I will LOVE the programs.... but, it sure is a little frustrating and overwhelming when you are schooling three at three different levels. Oh my... :shock: I hope I survive this year!

Re: Sneak Peek 2: New Guide Missions to Modern Marvels

Carrie - thankyou for including world history! As an Australian, I can use almost all of the guides without addition or subtraction of your great resources as you include the US history alongside world history. Thanks!!
