I see that in Beyond- the science jups all over God's wonderful works... will the entire book be covered by the end of Beyond?
I see that it is unit based, which is ok with me but I almost wanted to go through the creation book front to back.

Does anything get skipped? The science seems minimal ...

Ok!!!
Thanks Ladies!!!

So I need to work on getting the full set of LHFHG for my 5YO
Get math and a phonics to add to Beyond that I have for my 8YO

For now, I will finish up the Miquon Math I have, do R&S Builder and and then just do living books and put phonics on hold.
I have an ABeka science ...

I already have R&S 2 Phonics, Preparing to Build and Reader set. Would That take the place of DITHOR?

So, recapping what my3sons suggested (to hopefully understand it all):

Get the LHFHG guide for my 5YO, use it as written for her and for my 7YO, just use my R&S and Miquon math that I already have ...

What R&S did you use? The Phonics or the Reader, or both?
I have a (just turning) 5YO and 7YO and Can't decide how to use this program for both of them...

So far, so good just combining them for now.
I think I am going to go ahead and get LHFHG (for 5yo right) to start once she hits 5 and see how we can combine that way. Maybe hold off.

I really have no organization skills at all so to have them on different days would really confuse me LOL ...

First, are you referring to Bigger (like in your title) or Beyond (like in your post). Beyond has a blue cover and Bigger has a yellow and green cover.
I would not use either of these guides with a 5yo. Bigger is meant for 7-9yos, and works best with older 7yos to younger 9yos. Most families use it ...

So the moms that have a kid on each level, how do you teach them?
Are there any topics that they learn together?

Yes, I ment Beyond!

What about using it just for history/science/bible for both and use their separate math/language/reading programs?

I really need to combine and get on a better schedule. We did great last year with MFW 1st grad and this year, they are doing an eclectic mix and stuff is getting ...

I have an almost 5 year old that has been working on Kinder stuff and a 7 year old that is an advanced reader.
I recently bought Beyond from a friend and I am trying to make it work for both of them...but it seems way too in the middle.

How can I make it work for a K/2nd grader?
