Hello! I am new to HOD and am excited to try it. I am a little confused on where to place my kids. I have 5 school age kids...(ages 5, 7, 9, 11, and 12). I originally thought of putting the 7 and 9 year old together and the 11 and 12 year old together, but then am wondering what to do next year if I start now. This summer the 7 and 9 year old will be 8 and 10 and my 5 year old will be 6. Any thoughts? Is it better to finish what we currently have and start in August or switch now?

Have you looked at the placement chart to see where each child places?

My older two start guides at the beginning of summer (we do very slow some school as time allows). But my second starts guides in January. Some start guides in the fall (late September/October). Some start in February or March.. There isn't a best time to start.
