Is there a certain day or projects to do with certain books?

When you use DITHOR, you work through different genres. You read a genre for 15 days, during which time there is a daily activity (narration, vocabulary, character study, etc.). After you finish reading the book, you have 5 days to work on a project that you choose from the DITHOR manual or the Book Reports to Bring Home book. Hope that helps.

Thank you. That helps. I was having a hard time understanding when to use what books but I think I have it now :)

I had to read the DITHOR manual a few times before it finally clicked with me! Sometimes I can be a little dense :oops:
The book projects are scheduled to start on the 15th day of your plans and the choices are listed there (the 15th day) for each genre.
