R & S English 2

Post by christina » Wed Jun 04, 2014 11:21 pm

My son will start Beyond this fall, but will be using R & S English 2. He just finished the grammar activities and spelling list 1 from Beyond. Should I purchase Bigger Hearts for the English 2 lesson plans? I'd like to wait, if it isn't necessary, because I have a large order to place for my older son at this time.

You don't need the guide for R & S. Just do one lesson a day and you will be good.

What is nice about this approach is that you can skip a day of English if you need to, OR you can do English on a day that you might not be using the guide.

We always do one full guide of R&S English every year corresponding to the grade the child is in completely separate from the guide book. So even when they are in the guidebooks that only have 4 days per unit, we still do math and english on our fifth days.
