I have used Both the Earlybird 2A/2B books scheduled in LHFHG & the Essentials A/B books. If I had one more going through the K level, I would buy Essentials instead of EB. The activities are similar to EB without the busyness and the pages are easy to mesh with the LHFHG activities. Although, my dc...

I use a planner but not to actually "plan" if that makes sense :D I have a Class lesson Planner that I 3-hole punched put into a binder with my HOD manual (punched & in binder too). Instead of writing what we need to do, I write in what we have accomplished at the end of each day. It helps me keep t...

Carrie & Julie, HOD has been such a huge blessing to our family. I don't know where our homeschool journey would have taken us without you! Thank you for all your efforts. Even in the face of difficult circumstances, you still take time to offer advice & share your heart with those in need. What an ...

Welcome to HOD & homeschooling! Welcome to HOD! It is a great place to begin your homeschooling journey. I just want to chime in with the others. My sons are about as "unsocialized" as you can get. Not a day in daycare, preschool, regular school, no regular extra curricular activities -nothing but w...

I actually prefer the guide unbound & in one binder because it makes organizing easier (and I NEED easy right now lol). I put my Beyond manual in a large 3-ring binder (I think it is 3-1/2 or 4") but not in page protectors. In between each week I have SL tabs (numbered 1-34). When I find something I...

I chose the classic set with my guide and then ordered a few books from each of the other sets off Paperback Swap. We squeeze in the extras for bedtime reading. So far, the alternate suggested books from the list in the back of the guide are my dd's favorites.

I voted too

I bought them on eBay last year for $9.50. I won them in an auction, not a buy it now

We love The Wonders of God's Creation Vol 1-6. If you search around for them on the internet, you can find them for less than $10 for the entire set (over 10 hours long). Oh yeah, they are by Moody

Congratulations! Your little ones are precious (ahh I miss the new baby smell ).

Thanks for sharing the blessing

We are doing Beyond & CTC also! Just waiting on the last book from CTC that was back ordered (The Story of the Ancient World). It should be here any day and we are so excited!!!

Hope you have as much fun as I know we will!
