I have placed my DD8.5 in Preparing with my DDnearly11. She is doing quite well, but we are only two days into it. The only thing for her that she hasn't got skillwise is cursive writing and we are working on that. I think if your children have done some form of oral narration and possibly written n...

Here's hoping you have a great week. Will be praying that the block schedule will work much better for you all.

How about you look at the placement guide and see what guides each of them would place in that would match their skills? Let us know what that says. Personally after now having started I highly recommend placing them in individual guides. I currently have two in Preparing which is the perfect level ...

I will be praying for you all that this adjustment will not be too distressing for you all.

Oh Linda, it sounds like wonderful things are happening in your home. And it is so awesome to hear Christ is at the centre of your home schooling.

I'm going to be getting RtR for my oldest DD mid year and am so excited about, really looking forward to it. I really hope you all enjoy it.

Looks wonderful. I am about to embark on my HOD journey beginning with my daughters starting Preparing tomorrow, and then in a couple of weeks when LHFHG arrives my oldest son will be starting. I will be getting LHTH for my little guy sometime in the next year. I look forward to it, it does look lik...

I would suggest if you are going to read ahead, that perhaps you get the Preparing guide, and Grandpa's box, to get a better idea of how Carrie uses it. I am really looking forward to it now I've had a chance to look at all the books together and see how the different books are pulled out at differe...

Congratulations to you. Zion is just lovely, as are her brothers and sisters.

We are about to start Preparing using extensions for my oldest. There is a list in the appendix of what she is to read each day and a suggestion of doing one oral narration a week, written narrations of two to three paragraphs twice a week and a drawing of something related to the days reading accom...

Julie, thank you for updating this, as you posted the original question before I found LHFHG. We will be starting LHFHG with my oldest son in the next week while and it was great reading through this and now knowing what to expect from him. Although he is six, he has a language delay and so I imagin...

Thank you for sharing my relief and joy. It is so wonderful to have somewhere to share how wonderful God is when it comes to schooling our children.

Thanks so much for that Beth. Very much appreciated. I will try to remember this thread when I do get stuck.

I have been talking to my oldest daughter today and she has decided she wants more holidays, so we are going to split the eighth day of the fortnight over the Thursday and Saturday, more on the Saturday as we will likely have more time, but it will still leave us free to do something family orientat...

Happy Birthday to your husband and a happy anniversary to you both. God is amazing, great news about your DH's job.

Praying that they find everything out about your health and can treat you accordingly.
