like in a day? we spent between 2 to 6 hours on it. But I had a stubborn one. On a good day it was 2 hours for us.

My catalog says it takes 3 to 3 1/2 hours per day. I haven't done it though, so I have no "official" experience. :D

We spent an average of 3 hours a day on it last year with my 3rd grade son. That included our time spent on math, cursive, and Drawn into the Heart of Reading each day. :D

We also averaged about 3 hours a day last year with my 2nd grade ds - some days a bit less, and some a bit more. :D

About the same for us. I'm using it with my 3rd grader (as written) and 4th grader (with extensions). It takes us about 3 1/2 hours, some days more, some less. (That includes them being separated for DITHOR reading aloud to me and working on their student DITHOR workbook pages.)
