Re: LA choices for Bigger (3rd & 4th grader)...
Well, I do have ILL as well as PLL. Tried it with my ds10 and he just didn't get into it. I liked it, except so many of the writing activities were about topics that were not really pertinent to today, KWIM? I'll look at it again. I did not care for FLL 1/2 but FLL3 was okay. My dd12 did R&S last ye...

I had planned to just go into the next level (orange) with him next year but wondered if it would be too much with all the other writing in Bigger? Honestly, I...

Re: New here and trying to decide btwn. Beyond and Bigger...
Thanks everyone! I'm really feeling like God has led me to HOD. Like I said, I have used HOD programs in the past. I have LHTH (haven't really used it though) and have used DITHOR. My dd3 will be 4 in August. As I said she knows her letters/sounds, can sound out CVC words, write most of her letters,...

New here and trying to decide btwn. Beyond and Bigger...
Hi. My name is Sue and I am currently homeschooling 7 children (dd12, ds11, ds9, ds8, ds6, dd3 and ds1). We've been using MFW ECC this year and while I loved the concept...it wasn't a big hit with the kids. After much prayer, we have decided to send my 3 oldest back to public school next year so I w...
