Hi! We are very new to HOD and to homeschooling. We are going to be joining a co-op that meets once a week and so I wondered how to best
make up that 5th day in the guide. Thanks for your help!

Re: schedule for using 4 days of Beyond
How many weeks is the co-op? Is it an all day or half day co-op?
If it is half day, then I would try to get in the left side of the guide on co-op days and then double up as necessary on the storytime and language arts box. Reading I wouldn't double up on, and may depend on what you use.
If the co-op is all day, I think it would depend on the child. We had some Fridays that school didn't get done, so we either got ahead on Thursday, caught up on Monday, did a little on Saturday, or a combination of those. But, sometimes it is best just to do one day on one physical day and take more than 34 weeks to do the guide. This would be my recommendation if you had a 6yo/1st grader doing Beyond. If you had an older 2nd grader or a third grader doing Beyond, that might not be as good of an idea though.

Re: schedule for using 4 days of Beyond
Thanks so much. The co-op is all day Monday. I'm still trying to decide the best plan for 4 days.
