OK...Didn't Finish Folk Tale In Bigger??

Post by mrsrandolph » Tue May 22, 2012 11:23 am

We finished Bigger, and I am still on Realistic fiction! I was planning on reading the Ordinary Princess for the Folk Tale, but we finished the guide. Should I incorportae it as a night time read aloud? I am DEFINITELY finishing a little princess!!

I would either read it at bedtime or save it for a DITHOR selection. Some of the books we didn't get to in Bigger are DITHOR selections now...

Same here! I just told DD that Ordinary Princess could be her first book for the summer reading program the kids do at the library.

I just received my order for BIGGER recently (starting in Aug) **Yeah!** It's my first year with HOD, so I was looking over everything. I started reading "The Ordinary Princess" and couldn't put it down : ) I told my daughter she should read it for her book club she is in & we will use it for DITHOR (I will pick another folk tale for read aloud!). :D

We actually finished our Bigger curriculum last week except for reading The Ordinary Princess and some math. So we have read it this week and absolutely love it! I would definitely not skip it completely because it is such sweet love story told in a manner totally appropriate for young hearts. My girls (7 and 5) and even my son (9) has enjoyed it. Another great book selection from HOD :)
