Question for former Rev to Rev users

Curious about State study! We have to have Texas History here in the Lone Star State. Considering placing my 8th grader in a class for TX history next year. Will that be too much for him? With all the American History just a little fearful that it might overload him and I don't want to minimize Am H...

Isaac Newton Pages- RTR

Can anyone help? We are struggling to match up pages and I can't find a link for this when searching. We are on Unit 30- Day 1. Yesterday we struggled with this too. We are trying to find a quote and are unable to locate it. Is this a new edition?

Thanks,

Dawn

Re: Storytime in RTR and up-ok to still read aloud?

Hey, Lynn! I think this is a great question! I have understood it to mean that if you have multiple children with multiple read alouds each day, then it is an option for you to delegate that box to your child to read on his/her own. Since this is not an issue for you, I would read aloud!!! :D Happy ...

Re: My first post...a few questions....& THANKS

Hi, Leah! I also used the Reading Lesson with my dd. We loved it and found it quickly encouraged reading confidence and ability. :D We used the emerging readers right after we finished TRL! You can find the lists of these books here: http://www.heartofdakota.com/emerging-reader.php The Beyond TManua...

Schedule for Jerry Muskrat

I understand that LHFHG has been reprinted since I purchased my manual. Is there a place that I can find the update that replaces Uncle Wiggly schedule with Jerry Muskrat? I must have misplaced my copy of the new schedule.

Thank you,
Dawn :)

Re: CTC with my 6th grader

I am also currently using R&S 5 for my 6th grader and using CTC. It has been a great fit for my ds. One of the great things that I have found with R&S is that each year it reviews and builds on the previous year. I think your dc would be fine in R&S 5 as well. What a great blessing for you to have 2...

A New Common Place Book Ea. Yr?

Just want to see how some of you ladies do this! Do you continue to have your dc add on in their Common Place journal each yr. to make one keepsake? (Preparing continue to add on CTC,etc.) Or.... do you purchase a new Common Place Book for each new curriculum?

Thanks!

Re: Why is school taking so long every day?

I want to encourage you.... You just started this and so have your kiddos! This is a new year and you all are learning how to juggle this to make it work and learning what is expected in each guide. It WILL not take as long in a couple of weeks as it does right now. As everyone gets used what they a...

Re: Preparing Question/Clarification Needed

Hey, Deb! If I understand correctly, you schedule the "extension package" to do above and beyond the regularly scheduled assignments/boxes. You do all the boxes as planned and then to extend learning for your older child you refer to the schedule listed in the appendix and give them the "extra" assi...

Re: what extra supplies to you get?

Maybe I can help some. LHFHG some helpful supplies would be masking tape and some unlined white paper. I also used construction paper, paints,etc. I didn't purchase a binder or a notebook for storing work. Preparing: INDEX CARDS!!! A file box to store vocabulary cards and the ABC dividers as well.

Yes, Preparing TM has more levels.If Level 2 in Bigger is too easy you would want to purchase PHFHG manual!

Re: OT - Prayer Request

Tina,

I will be praying for you! I am in the DFW area. Are you moving to Dallas proper or a surrounding city? Prayerfully it will be an easy transition for you.
I will also be praying for your trip to Thailand and that God would use you in a mighty way to touch the women and children there!
