Re: LHTH Review

Rebecca, Thanks for taking the time to share about your year with LHTH! :D It honestly brought tears to my eyes, as so many of the things you shared are the same reasons why I wrote LHTH for my own boys! I loved hearing how your little Charles looked forward to doing "school" - and how much more the...

Summer...are you taking a break?

Summer is here, and our boys have officially ended school for this "school year." How about all of you? Are you continuing school through the summer, doing year round school, or taking a summer break? :D Since our oldest son Cole is getting married June 11, and our busy season for HOD is upon us... ...

Re: Struggling Learner Getting Further and Further Behind

Amber, The ladies are doing a great job of helping you talk through options. I agree that if your son has not already done Preparing Hearts, it would be very good to drop down a guide. Does he have some sort of a reading program he is working through for dyslexics? Or has he worked through some prog...

Re: Website search feature

Rice, Thanks for sharing your thoughts! On the search results, we have added a feature that shows the tags that go along with a book (which include the name of the guide it is from). Also, right now the search is only working for books but not for CDs and other kits. Soon, CDs and kits will show up ...

Ladies, Thanks for sharing! We know the load times have been slow on the website and will definitely be working long-term on increasing speed. The Spring Sale is our busiest few days of the year in a row and launching a new website right near that time has been a challenge to say the least. :wink: W...

Re: Notebooking Page Issues?

Hello cbenner723! We use either Ticonderoga pencils (for the younger kiddos) or .7 mm Bic clicky pencils #2 (for the middle school on up kiddos). Our boys have always used pencil all the way through the notebooking pages. :D Each family probably just needs to find what works for them! Which set of n...

Re: Placement? What to do if misplaced in Bigger?

Thanks so much for sharing! :D I would lean toward beginning Level 3 as scheduled in Preparing Hearts whenever you begin that guide. My oldest son began Rod and Staff English with Level 4 and did great! He did have previous formal grammar instruction, just not to the level of rigor in Rod and Staff....
