Hi Debbie!
I am planning on using this with 3 of my children. The are 7.5 yo dd, 10yo ds, and 15 yo, dd. I will do extensions and some additional science for my oldest. I plan on using DITOR with all of them as well.
I am so excited to be able to do something all together with the kids this fall. They have each been doing their "own" thing for each grade and I really think they will love learning the same things together. My oldest is very excited. She loves to read and be read to, and so sick of textbooks that she cannot comprehend. I am a little worried about it all falling on me, as this new way of teaching will challange wm to be more involved. I am kinda used to them being more independent during the school day. I do feel that this is the direction that the Lord is directing me to go, so with that, I will trust in HIM!

So nervously excited here...pray for the mama!!

Hi Debbie!
When we get to Preparing I will have one in 3rd and my twins will be in 4th. My 3rd grader will be 8 and my twins will be 9.5 when we start. This may change as we progress through the guides....we are just finishing up Little Hearts. I may slow down a bit as we head into Beyond and Bigger.

I'm going to be using this in the fall with my just-turned-10yo girls, who will be doing 4th/5th grade.

Can't wait!
