Carrie,

Thanks for coming back to clarify that. That helps me settle in to repeating Apologia's Astronomy. We really enjoy these books, but I wanted to make sure that they would be "enough" for an 11 and 12 yo. :wink:
2013 - 2014
15 yo dd -- MTMM
13 yo ds -- MTMM
12 yo ds -- finish PHFHG/CTC
9 yo ds -- finish BLHFHG/BHFHG
5.5 yo dd -- LHFHG

"Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you."
Matthew 6:32

RuthAnn,

I know Apologia recommends their Astronomy book for grades 1-6 in order to begin the upper level Apologia coursework in grades 7-8 instead, but from a CM perspective the Astronomy book would be middle school worthy for up through grade 8. I just wanted to clarify that point as if you're not a CM-style educator at heart, your opinion on whether the Astronomy book is enough for grades 7-8 may vary. :D

Blessings,
Carrie
