I just received my catalog. I have never been in a bible study that covered praying, I just pray-speak to God. Yet the Missions to Modern Marvels section G lists "pray using the four parts of prayer". Do you all know anymore about this? What book or resource will tell me more about this? :?: Ginger ...

I'm praying for his full healing, & his hearing Jesus.

I know the younger levels include a Bible in the book packages. After that, are there recommended Bibles for each new level? I am trying to find a New King James Bible for a junior high school boy.

I watched your youtube video. It was very well done and creative. Thanks for sharing this.

Hello, I would like to pull out some Heart of Dakota to use with my son during "afterschooling". I would like to use the spelling lists & dictation phrases for improving his spelling & vocabulary. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Can I buy these parts of HOD separately? Thanks in advance for an...

Don't schedule every subject every day. Some can be studied two or three times per week. Some can be covered in ten or fifteen minutes at a time. Your child will retain more with small daily exposure than one long block of time.

Thanks for listing these. I can shop with these lists.

Thanks, Jen & Carrie, :roll: My son will be 10 this summer; I hope to finish Rod & Staff 2 by then. I will likely do Rod & Staff 3, but omit the reviews & tests.

Hello ladies,
I am finishing up Rod & Staff 2 with a soon to be 10 year old. For next year, should I jump to Rod & Staff 4, skipping level 3 ? Or should I do 3, omitting the review lessons ? How do I get on track & what lessons can be omitted ?

Is "Victor Journey Through the Bible" being considered for any future years ? It looks interesting, I'm hoping it's used.
Blessings,
Ginger

We are doing Bigger Hearts for His Glory, using the spelling lists. When I get to dictation, do I point to the dictation passage as I read it to my son, or should I be copying it ahead of time on something ? Thanks for sharing your experiences with this.

HI Ladies, Are the three language arts resources scheduled in the guides ? Rod & Staff (2,3,4,5,6), Emerging Readers then DITHR (2&3,4&5,6&7&8), Igniting Your Writing (1, 2) Is there any language arts resource I have overlooked ? I know two levels of spelling instruction are followed by three levels...

I have a question about American history in future guides: Will the four years focus on world history, or will the focus also include American history ? and How much of it will be American history ? Has this been discussed in a previous thread that I did not find ? Thanks for helping me view the fut...

Hi Carrie,
