Wow...that was a fast answer!

THANKS!

I thought I heard somewhere that she will be using MOH for that one...and if that is the case, we will be in heaven as we switched SOTAW out to MOH about a month into school...and we LOVE IT!

My son will be finished with CTC by the end of the year. We made some adjustments to the curriculum, but overall it has been a successful year for us thus far.

Are there any plans for something after CTC or should I start looking into another curriculum for next year?

Okay, we tried it for another week and it is just not working for us! It just bores us to tears. So...starting Monday we will switch to MOH Vol. 1 and I will tweak it where necessary. Also, with a little preparation on my part, I think I can work it in. I will let you know how it works out!

Carrie: Thanks so much for your kind offer and for brainstorming for me. The thing is this. I went back again and looked over the placement chart. He really does fit into this placement. Everything else that we are doing, he places wonderfully. It is just this book in particular. I am wondering this...

I am sorry...I guess I should have given that info. My son is in 5th grade and he just turned 11. He is not a strong reader, but he is certainly an "on level" reader. For instance...the story of Jed Smith (which is his DITHOR reader for Biography that we got from HOD)...that I can't take out of his ...

Quite frankly, both my son and I find it boring. Further, the language leaves a lot to be desired. I was an English major, and even I find the writing difficult to understand at times. My son is pretty lost and zones out easily, as the writing is just so dull. I need another option. We went to page ...

Legally, is it illegal to make a copy of things that go out of print?

We use CLE and like it alot. I have learned to skip some of what he already knows well, and it has shortened out time!

Thanks everyone for your help! Clearly, we are taking waaaayyy too much time on L/A and Math. It takes him about 40 minutes to do math and another hour to do L/A. By the time I start with bible quiet time and prayer, throw in math and L/A, the entire morning is over and we start up everything else a...

I would love to know this too!

I noticed that there are plans for the next book. Does that mean that it will be ready in time for us next year, since I am using CTC this year?

Thanks!

And Now that it is 1:22 a.m., and I am supposed to be at the gym in 4 hours (NOT happening), and my questions for tomorrow are answered, I will get some shut eye! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your help!

Brilliant Ideas! Thank you! I probably should have said a while back that today was my SECOND day of homeschooling...ever! I think I fell into the syndrome everyone warned me about...DOING TOO MUCH! However, the end of the day was: Luke and I, sitting with our legs crossed, feet up on the table, eat...

Thank you so much ladies! Daisy, seeing your schedule DOES help quite a bit. My son is doing CLP English and LA every day, and it is a very intensive program, so that takes us most of the morning. We take a break, do one or two things, and then go to lunch. After that, it is the history, science, ge...

GOT IT! Oh my gosh! This is SO confusing! I cannot begin to thank you enough for all your help! There has GOT to be an easier way to do this! LOL Now, if I could just impose on you one last time..let me ask you this question...do you do both? It just seems like my day is SO long to begin with. We st...

Jed Smith and Black Stallion and Gentle Ben...

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!
