Thanks for the suggestions Julie, I will try and sit down and get some planning done over the few days we take off for Christmas. I thought I had read on a thread on here that it was ok to copy the workbook pages for personal use with your own children. :oops: oops. I'm a bit embarrassed if my brain...

Now, if my daughter would just finish her written narration sometime this century....instead of coming up with a million different ailments...life and school could progress at our household!!!

Ok, I just read the material on Rome and Carthage today, and his narration is great One misspelling is all I saw that could use fixed. I'll be doing Unit 17 by Thursday or Friday

The content of his synopsis for the Golden Age of Greece is awesome! We just finished that section a couple of weeks ago. My daughter is 9 also, and a great reader, but she struggles to do the Written History Narrations. I feel like we need to work on writing more too. So, your little guy is doing g...

Thanks ladies. I think just doing the wrap up section for every other genre is a good suggestion. Our budget is pretty tight right now, so I feel like I should be making copies. But, I might just check out the price of the workbook by itself and see if it isn't a terrible expense to reorder it with ...

I'm needing some tips ladies on how to be consistent w/ using DITHOR. It seems like a great addition to my daughter's curriculum (we are using PHFHG for 3rd grade). But at this point, I started w/ it at the beginning of the year and we now never get to it. So, how do you get to a point of consistenc...

We did HOD last year on a 4-day schedule b/c of a co-op also. However, my oldest was only in 2nd grade and I chose to start DITHOR this year w/ yer for 3rd grade.

Erica,
I would love for you to send me your charts too! Thanks for commenting on this thread too. I looked at your charts and they look great.
Thanks again!
Amy

Oh Julie! I am so excited to hear from you! I hope things get better with your family. My email address is asherwood96@yahoo.com. I would love to have the chore charts for the kids and the PHFHG schedule that you used b/c you also had one in LHFHG at that time too, like we do. I will have 2 in LHFHG...

http://www.heartofdakota.com/board3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10426 I'm not positive that I did this correctly. In order to find the schedules and chore charts , you'll need to scroll down a ways to where Julie posted how she organizes her PHFHG curriculum, and she says that she has a schedule printed out...

Hello everyone, I saw on the message board some wonderful ideas for chore charts and schedules, written by Julie. I have tried to download them from Photo bucket in order to edit them for our family, and can't figure it out. Is there a way to be able to do this, or do I need to try to figure out how...

Once again, that information was really helpful. I read through it and am at peace now with going w/ the easier books. I want her to be able to enjoy reading and learning the history, and we can always get the extension if we decide to later. I'm sure as always, the scheduled independent activities ...

Actually after looking at the website again, this is what confused me: SELF-STUDY EXTENSION PACKAGE FOR OLDER STUDENTS $91.82 $78.20 (Save $13.62) [Add to Cart] Adding this optional package to the Economy Package extends the area of history to include more advanced, independent reading material. Thi...

That is very helpful feedback. We have done HOD since Kindergarten, so this will be our 4th year with it. However, I don't know why I got confused this year and hadn't understood that the Deluxe package was necessary and that the extension was not to be used in place of it, if it were selected--We p...

My daughter is a very advanced reader for her age and I want to make sure the optional books she reads are not way too simple for her, but I also want them to not have too mature of content. So, I am having a hard time deciding between The Deluxe and the Extension packages. She turns 9 in September ...
