? on Preparing packages

[kiloyd]

I need to order so we can start school! I don't want to get it all at once.

I'm getting the Economy Package now, the Science Add-On, DITHOR, and English 3.

I'd like to wait on the Basic Package to split up the cost. Is there a book we use in the first 5 units or so that I should order now?

Do I need the Deluxe Package? Besides Draw and Write Through History, I'm getting that one too.

Thanks. It is fun deciding but I also wish I could just buy everything but don't want to spend that much money at once.

Deluxe pkg. 1st 5 units:
Draw and Write
Noah's Ark, Noah's Flood
5,000 Year Old Puzzle

Basic pkg. 1st 5 units:
The True Story of Noah's Ark
Life in the Great Ice Age
Tirzah (starts unit 5 day 4)

If your child is not doing the extension pkg. he/she needs to do the deluxe pkg.
ETA: If your child is 5th or 6th grade you will want to do the extension pkg. If your child is 3rd or 4th grade you will want to do the deluxe pkg.

Thank you. He will be 4th grade.

My question really should have been- What can I wait on for a month or two or half way through?

So I really need Economy, Science Add-On, Basic and Deluxe?

But to save now I could get those first 3 in Basic and Deluxe? that would work?

Yep, that would work. And in fact, I just noticed that Life in the Great Ice Age is in the economy pkg. So that won't be an extra one for the basic pkg. It is used in both the Reading About History and Storytime boxes of the Teacher's manual. Yes, you need those four pkgs. and also DITHR, Math, and English.
