PPHFHG extension package

Hi!

I bought the extension package (the history reading books) for my son. Should he do the Independent History Study books/assignments AS WELL AS the extension package reading schedule, or should that be in lieu of the independent history assignments?
Thanks!

Copyright & versions of books

Hi! I plan to use Preparing Hearts this year. I already own some of the books and am able to get others used. I am wondering which books need to be the exact version listed on the HOD website and which can be different (different copyright or hard bound vs. paperback, etc.). History Economy package ...

Re: Writing in Preparing

Have you used Igniting Your Writing? If so, how do you like it?
I have never heard of it before. Is it pretty teacher-friendly?

Writing in Preparing

Hi!

I will be doing Preparing with a 5th grader next year. Do you all recommend doing the writing assignments that are in the program, or do you supplement with another writing program?
Thanks!

Using one program for several children

Hi! I originally posted this to the Preparing board, but after thinking about it, realized it is a more general question. I am new to HOD and this message board. After being frustrated and tired 1st semester with my "own" pieced-together American History curriculum, I borrowed Bigger Hearts from a f...

Notebooking in Preparing

Hi!

I see that Preparing offers notebooking assignments weekly in science. Are there history notebooking assignments? If so, how frequently do they occur?

Assigning Independent Work to multiple kids

Hi! I am new to HOD. I started in the middle of Bigger this semester and next year we plan to do Preparing. I have 3 kids who will be doing some of the independent work.

Using one program for several children

Hi! I am new to HOD and this message board. After being frustrated and tired 1st semester with my "own" pieced-together American History curriculum, I borrowed Bigger Hearts from a friend who had done it the year before and we picked up in the middle, right where we left off (Revolutionary War).
