CTC- Unit 4 Bigger- Unit 4 This week in my blog I focused on the subjects that aren't usually highlighted. You know...math, English, spelling, handwriting, etc. Just for one week, I wanted to let people know what we use for each of those subjects and how it's going. There are also a few pics of some...

Bigger and CTC Unit 3

Completed unit 2 in CTC. Had to do some adjusting to the schedule to get each day done. http://makinglearninglovers.blogspot.com/2013/09/week-two-rearranging-ctc.html Also completed unit 2 in Bigger. DITHOR used to be a problem for us, but we figured out what we were doing wrong. Yeah! http://making...

Week one is done! http://makinglearninglovers.blogspot.com/2013/09/whew-week-one-is-done.html Bigger- Unit 1 CTC- Unit 1 This post isn't unit specific, but it is about working out our daily schedule using the two programs and adjusting my thinking to meet my child's needs. http://makinglearninglover...

I'm a new HOD user, so maybe take my insights with a grain of salt, I guess. :) I love that I've gotten so much help from others who've done the program before, so I decided to start blogging my journey so that other who come behind me may gain some knowledge (probably by learning from my mistakes, ...

I've noticed that a lot of the history and science reading is done independently in this level (my first year doing HOD at all). Do you read ahead of your child so you know what they're reading or do you just leave it to them? Or do you have another method of knowing what they're studying to be able...

I'm using this post to help get ready for my daughter's first year of HOD. I had a couple questions. For the science notebook, where did you get the question sheets and notebooking pages? Or are those something you created on your own? Also, I noticed it's been quite a few years since this original ...

One big issue I'm seeing is that C2C is written as a 4-day schedule, but Bigger is a 5-day schedule. It doesn't seem fair to have one child doing an extra day of school than the other. And since the printed schedule in the book can't be easily re-arranged to spread out the C2C for an extra day, I'm ...

I have seen on other threads people talking about doing two studies at the same time and how they schedule their day to get everything accomplished. However, they are always combining the lower level guides (Little, Beyond, Bigger). Does anyone have any experience or suggestions on combining with C2...

This last year was our first year homeschooling. I purchased all different curriculum for each subject and just don't feel like I can do that again. There was overlapping in some places and missing info in other places along with lots of down time for each as I worked with the other. I need better f...

I am trying to pick a curriculum for my children next year and feel like I'm going to lose my mind before I come to a decision. I have two children in school right now. One is 8 years old and entering 3rd grade. She struggles as a student, but is right on for grade level work. I would never want to ...
