It's the workbook! I feel confident he could do the reading and comprehend it fine. But I feel it's not enough to just read the books, we need to do something, but not sure if DITHOR is it yet?

BHFHG Reading Question

We are completing the Emerging Readers set with Beyond, but I am just not sure my little guy is going to be ready for DITHOR when we begin bigger in the fall. He has done great with the Emerging Readers, but after looking over DITHOR, I feel we won't be ready for that come fall. My question is this....

Sonlight vs. HOD

I know there has to be a thread for this already somewhere. But I just wanted to some comparisons from the seasoned mommas on here. We are fairly new to homeschooling, this will be our 2nd year and we are planning on using HOD, in fact I already placed my order for Beyond :P We go to coop once a wee...

Re: Comparison A Beka to HOD/Beyond or Bigger

Thank you all very much. It's such a daunting task to look at new curriculum, but I have definitely continued to feel pulled to HOD. He has completed most of Abeka 1st grade. We have about two months left in everything but Abeka math, which we finished early, we are currently reviewing and using bit...

Comparison A Beka to HOD/Beyond or Bigger

We are possibly making the switch from A Beka to HOD next year. We have enjoyed A Beka, but we really feel its not the best fit for our very active almost 7 year old. With that being said, he has learned so much with A Beka. He's reading extremely well and we completed A Beka 1st grade math early. I...

Re: Beyond or Bigger?

Thanks for the input. I think we will go with Beyond most likely. I had him complete the placement test on Singapore's website and he flew through the test for 1A/1B, I may just order 1B and have him finish out the year with that. We do usually do several lessons with A beka math each because he enj...

Beyond or Bigger?

Looking for some advice…I am looking into HOD for my 7 yr old son for 2nd grade beginning late summer. We are currently using A beka for 1st grade. I don't have any real complaints about it, he has learned and progressed well, it just isn't a great fit for us. I have a 2 year old and 4 month old at ...
