Thank you, Carrie! It is very helpful to understand the reasons for the changes. I was wondering because I loved the guides as originally written, but reading your explanations makes so much sense. I'll confess that, although my children are older now, I'm still going to snatch up the Visual History...

If I were in your shoes, I would finish out Beyond. It is such a delightful program and develops skills that will help when she reaches Bigger. I have incredibly fond memories of going through the program with my now 22 year old son. With your daughter still being 7, I think it is the perfect age. :...

For a non-science child, I would not bother with the tests. You'll be able to tell from the comprehension checks and chapter reviews whether your child is grasping the material. As long as your child is doing all of the reading and all of the experiments, along with the checks and reviews - includin...

I used to be of a classical mindset.. rigor rigor rigor. my how things can change 😂 ... I want my children to enjoy school, enjoy family, have time to work on needed skills, and have time to work on their talents. Amen, amen, and amen!!!!! I started my poor boy on Greek when he was just 4 years old...

I made a spreadsheet that lists every DITHOR book, sorted by level (3/4, 5/6, etc.). I don't have the grade equivalency for each book listed, but if the spreadsheet would be helpful, I'd be glad to share it with you.

Don't you just love the breakthroughs in homeschooling? I have to confess I am envying you still having little ones. Mine grew up much too fast, but I am cherishing memories of moments like you described!

That is cute!

Your post caught my eye, as I also love MOTH and use it to schedule our days. I now have a high schooler and a college student and we still use a schedule! :) Here are a few thoughts, in case any of them might be helpful to you: Could you flip flop the right side of LHFHG and computer time? That wou...

Right. I know they use other resources. Just wondering why MOH begins at unit 15. Res to Ref was designed when there was only a volume 1, so just wondering what in the first part of volume 1 prompted the decision to use other resources until unit 15. There's a MOH second edition now and a lot was c...

Instead of using MOH1 or MOH2, HOD uses other (phenomenal) resources to cover the history up until the time period of MOH3. (MOH3 is not used in RTR until Unit 15.)

I just have to pop on here and say that I absolutely LOVE the new catalog and was so excited to get it in the mail today!!! :D :D :D I especially like the larger size, which is easier for me to read. I just wish I were able to have had many more children. I am NOT ready for my HOD journey to end in ...

It’s on the website- if you are shopping for the packages it shows you where on the guide it is and it tells you how often. Visual History says 4 days and is highlighted on the music box. Music is highlighted in the same spot and says 1 day a week. https://heartofdakota.com/package/beyond-little-he...

It's there now!

Even though we are beyond Beyond (no pun intended! ), I wanted to order the set for our home library. I am not seeing it on the website. Will it be ready for the spring sale?

I did take a look at Resurrection to Reformation and skills-wise it seems a bit too advanced for the 13 year old. I think I misread your first post. I was thinking you were considering Rev2Rev, which is why I recommended RTR, as it would be less advanced. As I re-read your post, I think you were ju...
