Re: I've got a problem and need help!

I don't know if this advice would be doable for you- but here is a thought: What if you separated your sons within the same guide. Still teach the T box together. You could have your younger son begin halfpace and your older move at full speed. If you read aloud the storytime- I would just continue ...

Just received Rev 2 Rev

It looks AMAZING!

I actually got tears in my eyes. I am so thankful for this curriculum and the opportunity it provides for me to challenge my son and give him a rich and full education.

Thank you HOD!!!!

Re: att Large families!

I have a large family. :D Next year, if you count kindergarten- which is not "school age" in my state- I will have FIVE students k-6 and baby twins. :o :shock: I will actually have 4 children who are considered "school age" have to be accounted for and tested: spring 2012. I love what water2wine wro...

Re: Struggling with kids being in different guides--

Sigh- as I really looked back at your post- I realized you were really just wanting help in combining. I am sorry! I do hope that something I wrote might help anyway. I pray, right now, that God gives you peace in your direction for your family and your school. He will show you the way!! May His ref...

Re: So, so happy to be "all the way" back with HOD!

Thank you so much for the happy welcome back! It is definitely such a blessing! I would like to share that our family loves the productivity we have with HOD and I truly feel like the guide is my personal helper in so many, many, many ways!!! It is hard to express it all in words. When I get anxious...

Re: Struggling with kids being in different guides--

My computer started acting funny. So I ended quickly. I think if something feels that burdensome, it is really time to start praying and reevaluating and the Lord will show you the correct plan! I will say that I was completely burdened with Preparing before, too. It took us so long to finish the fi...

Re: Struggling with kids being in different guides--

Well- I am enjoying, enjoying the joys of being UNCOMBINED. So that is my perspective. I read a thread on here awhile ago about choosing guides where the students can learn independence. So- that said- I wouldn't put your daughter in Preparing until she really could do much of it on her own- with yo...

So, so happy to be "all the way" back with HOD!

Just sayin' :D There should be a LOVE image or smiley or something. This year- I did some different things with some different students. Which the Lord totally worked for good- and I was able to seamlessly separate my two oldest children into two guides (now) and it is such a blessed fit! Just felt ...

Re: Questions for anyone using Preparing with 11yo.

I sent you a PM-
but just wanted to say-
that I have learned the hard way- it is really important to place them where they individually fit best- even if it means separate guides!

Blessings,
Rebecca

Re: New to Dakota and I have a LOAD of questions!

Hi there! I can related to the mind boggling experience of managing multiple grades. I have six children and they are younger than yours...but I still thought I might have something to offer here. Their ages are: 10,8,7,5,4,1. Ithought I would chime in due to the sense of "relating" with managing al...

OT: Devotionals for personal bible time (child)

Hello, My son likes to read his own devotional book for part of his personal bible time in the morning. I need suggestions. We are saving Boyhood and Beyond for when we get to R 2 R. We have used the Hero Tales series. He has also used two of the Hymns for A Kid's Heart volumes (not the ones used in...
