Ok, I'm trying to figure this out. If my daughter starts DITHOR for 2nd grade, will it last until 8th grade or just until 4th grade? I guess what I'm confused about is if each student book lasts for all the grade levels indicated or is each student book for just one year of work? Can anyone explain this to me? Thanks!

April,
Each Student Book in DITHR is intended to be used over 2 years, thus taking you through 7th grade for sure and 8th grade if you stretch it even further.
You can take 2 years to do each level by doing DITHR 3 days each week, or by doing a month on a genre and then a month off (teaching writing or just reading within the genre during that month), or you can do it 4 days a week -repeating some of the genres the following year with new books..... You get the idea. The options are endless and very flexible to meet your family's needs.
We tell moms to strive to cover all 9 genres every 2 years.
Blessings,
Carrie
