I ordered Bigger w/ extensions for my to-be 4th grade twins for the upcoming year so we can finish America History, and also because Carrie recommended it for my kiddos. I haven't received it yet, but I noticed on the sample that Bigger uses R & S 2. We used 2 last year so I wanted to move to R & S 3 this year. Can I use 3 w/ Bigger? Any tips would be appreciated:).

We did. Most of it was done orally. My DS would only do 4-6 sentences written a day. We used it 4 times a week, 1 lesson a day. For the reviews, we would take two days.

We also used R&S 3 with Bigger. No problem at all. We just did a lesson a day (mostly orally, as the others have said).
You will have a great year with Bigger!

We are using Bigger for 4th grade this year. My daughter has never done R&S before, so we are doing 2 lessons of R&S2 a day (orally) and then will start R&S3 at normal speed when we finish R&S2.

We haven't quite finished our R & S 2 book yet, so I may finish the rest orally also. Most of it is review for them anyway.

Absolutely you can do that! I did Bigger last year with my son, and we used R & S English 3 along with it 4 days a week. It was a perfect fit!
