Struggling with choice: MFW CTG or HOD CTC
Re: Struggling with choice: MFW CTG or HOD CTC
Lisa...that just happened to me in MFW ECC...he read something and pointed out to me that it looked like it pointed to evolution rather than having been made by a creator...I told him "let's look in the guide to see if they told me about that"...and they had - I had just missed flipping the page to find the note. I have read points that both MFW & HOD do use books that sometimes have content that may prompt discussion about our beliefs...but in both cases I have read that Marie Hazell & Carrie Austin both do a great job of pointing these out to the parent in the guide. (For instance - I'm sure this will come up when studying Greeks & mythology - but we are not in that time period yet.) I do not mind explaining to my 10 yr old the differences in other beliefs...but I do appreciate when it is shown in the guide so I can be sure to talk about it. I just missed it in the MFW manual..due to the page flipping for all the notes in the weekly stuff. I was better in the 1st part of the year @ previewing - but as the year has progressed - I guess I got lax and missed it - funny thing though that he is so use to my discussion of these items that he brought it up himself & asked for the discussion! This is a really big reason that I have looked into a curriculum such as MFW & HOD - I have tons of volunteer activities so I need the assistance from the curriculum writer!
