2nd grade placement question

Post by little wife » Fri Jan 25, 2008 9:21 am

Here's our situation:

My oldest is 6.5 and doing MFW 1st. My second will be 5 in August. I would like to keep them together if I use HOD next year. 4yo ds is really beyond LHTH. We have it although haven't used it much. Little Hearts looks like a great fit for him, but would oldest be bored with it? I figured I would add some things to it for him.

anyone else use MFW 1st? I am wondering if Little Hearts repeats too much of what we've been doing in Bible with MFW this yr. I know oldest should really use Beyond but can I beef up LHearts for him or is that not a good idea?

Have you checked out the placement chart on the HOD site? That may help you to decide which program to use. You can also get an idea of what bible stories are covered in each program if you look at the samples. I think it would be doable to add to Little Hearts for your oldest child. The age range for it is 5-7. HTH!

Welcome to the boards! I only have a minute, but I'd agree with Gina to check the placement chart first on our site. Here's the link:

After you've looked at the chart, let us know what you're thinking, and more of us will weigh in with what we think too!

I'll take a look at fixing your username too!

Blessings,
Carrie
