hi all
I am new to homeschooling...I have read and re-read the program selection charts....still confused? I have a 7 yr old(2nd grade) and a 10 yr old(5th grade) it says that BHFHG can be used for 4-5th graders with extension package...so am I understand that by using just BHFHG and adding extension pkg, this will be sufficient for my 5th grader, along with her math program? any help appreciated!! thank you! kari

Welcome to homeschooling.
- and to HOD. Those are both great choices.
.
You said you've looked at the program selection charts- did you look at the placement chart as well? That's where you can see where their skills would best match with a guide. Bigger would work for your child with the extensions, but she might place in Preparing instead. Check out the chart and let us know what you think and we can go from there.

Unless you are really set on combining them, I would use separate guides. For any of my children that are two grade levels apart, I've always kept them separated, and that's worked very well for us. I might even use Beyond for your second grader and Creation to Christ for the fifth grader, depending on the placement chart results.

Welcome to the HOD Board!
It sounds like you've made a decision here, but just to be sure - did you have any questions about placement? We'd all love to help, as proper placement can really make a difference in how the year flows.
This board is full of encouraging, helpful ladies - so ask away if anything comes to mind!
In Christ,
Julie
