Re: Rod and Staff, really 15 min???

We're using Bigger and R&S 2. It takes us 15 minutes or less most days. However, we do a lot of it orally or on the whiteboard. My oldest used levels 6-8 and it usually took him around 30-45 minutes.

Re: Newbie needs help!

I wouldn't skip anything. Just work until you're ready to stop, then pick it back up when you begin again. There's no 'be done by' date with homeschooling, and certainly not with HOD. Just make sure to fulfill your state requirement. We're using Bigger Hearts this year, but only 4 days a week. This ...

Re: What guides are you doing?

Our 8.5 y/o is doing Bigger Hearts 4 days a week. We're using the fifth day for math, reading, board games, and outside activities (4H and hand chimes, field trips, etc). We are LOVING it! We also have a college sophomore at home.

GREAT news for both kiddos! :D

Years ago I worked one on one with a severely autistic boy. He loved painting and clay work!

Re: Order of history

The website shows the Table of Contents for each guide, perhaps that would help.

Re: Adventure read-alouds --King Of The Wind is Too Hard

The Sword in the Tree is EXCELLENT. My ds could have listened to it in one sitting. I loved it too and didn't find it boy'ish. The main character is a boy, but it's such a good book I don't think that matters. The same way my ds loved Baby Island and that's very much a "girl" book. But, it's well wr...
