JadeOrchidSong Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 How many daily lessons are there? I counted 108 from the Table of Content. I want to double check if that is correct, If you have two dc doing it, do you buy them each a set of workbooks? Does it seem to be too much writing in the workbook for each lesson? I just read the textbook sample and the workbook samples. I would like some ideas how to use this program. Now I need to read America the Beautiful books. I have them all. I might need to purchase Changing Frontiers textbookand workbooks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I posted on your other thread. It depends if you count quizzes as a separate day. If you don't, it would be 140. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JadeOrchidSong Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 Michelle and mom31257, how do your dc like this program? What made you decide against America the Beautiful if you considered it, too? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I chose CLE because I had read reviews about it being the most unbiased history book people had read. I am loving all I've read thus far. The book is beautiful, too! The light units have a lot of graphic organizers, which I like as a learning tool. I asked my dh to look at Notgrass for high school with my dd, but he didn't care for it as much as other publishers. He didn't care for him as a speaker at a convention as well, so I never looked at America the Beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JadeOrchidSong Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 We haven't started it yet.Are you doing this with both 6th and 8th grade dc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blossom'sGirl Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Are you doing this with both 6th and 8th grade dc? Just the 8th grader. I considered keeping them together, but I think my oldest needs something of his own and I wanted him to have a concentrated study of American history before high-school. Those two did 3/4 of Sonlight Core H together last year and there was too much bickering for this momma. I am considering having my 6th grader do VP history (modern) online if it goes on sale. If not, we will finish Core H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, we will finish Core H.We are on similar paths. We did MOH 4 along with SL Core H read alouds and readers. :-)I am also thinking of separating my two boys. Maybe ds13 can do CLE and ds11 can do America the Beautiful. I own the whole set of AtB. I do want ds13 to have a through American history grasp before high school. CLE is definitately more focused on the history part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
