Bigger 4 days a week

Hi,
This is my first time posting here. We have been using all the begining guides with next year starting out in Bigger. Our family loves a 4 days a week schedule for HOD which has been fairly easy to figure out and schedule for all the other guides. But looking through Bigger it looks like there is a lot more writing assignments and other things that is making it hard for me to see how it put two days together. If anyone has done it, or has any ideas, please let me know!
Thanks,

I don't think you could do it. I don't think you could fit two of the days in Bigger into one day, not completely. I was going to try it too, the only way I could possibly see to make it work is to split things up and double up on one part each day. But then it doesn't go together really. You would miss some of the cohesiveness especially with the History, Bible, Rotating Box.

So I embraced the fact that we wouldn't complete Bigger in a year's time. Preparing is scheduled as a 4 day week so I will enjoy that when we get to it. My DD is right in the middle of the age range for the guide so I don't mind us not completing it in one year. If you're the kind of person who cares that you're doing Day 1 on a Monday and Day 5 on Friday (or Thursday) you might have trouble, but I have found it no problem to pick right back up no matter where we are in the week and which day we are doing.
