I'm using TOG classic year one, copyright date 2003. SOTW is not listed. Does anyone have a schedule of what chapters of SOTW go with sections of TOG? I would really appreciate you sharing if so. Thank you.
-
Thanks! :)

You might want to check out www.manybooks.net as well.
Thanks so much for posting this, I didn't know it existed. It looks really useful. :)

These all look great! Thanks!

Thanks, ladies! This helps a lot. We got behind a bit and are just now starting a full 5th grade schedule, working everything in little by little since around the beginning of this month. We weren't ready in September 08.
I'm trying to figure out how to fit everything in and my ds thinks I have some cruel plan to work him to death. So, I'll have him look over these schedules to make him feel better. :)

Thanks, ladies. I forgot to add in my original post, we'll be using the dialectic level.
-
Thanks!
The parts of speech indicate what the words are, so to speak. It is their identity.A diagram, however reveals their function in relationship to the other words in the sentence.
I'm actually not very far along in learning my grammar, but I suspect their might be times when parsing before diagramming may be confusing.
-
Thanks!
When I did diagramming, we never had to label the parts of speech. -
I meant that I had to label the parts of speech on the diagram. Thanks!
you labelled the parts of speech before diagramming, or that you labelled the parts of speech on the diagram?It's a very good idea to parse the sentence before diagramming it. However, some children think differently, and can diagram better than they can parse. If that is the case with your child, I would diagram first, and then use the diagram to reinforce what the parts of speech are.
Does that help?

We're just dipping into classic year one, dialectic level, and I am trying to decide on how to schedule each week. Seeing what others are doing or have done would be very helpful to me. Thanks!
-
I just want to see where we are in comparison to others. It helps me to not push too much, etc... Thanks so much! :)

We just started using this and I have a question. When I was in high school (the only time I've ever diagrammed sentences, I enjoyed it, but it was about 15 years ago) we had to label the parts of speech as we diagrammed the sentences. I don't see that we're supposed to do that in this book. Was I taught the wrong way, or is it a difference in programs? Anyone know? Thanks!

OMG, I love this site. Thank you so much for posting this. :grouphug:
www.heritage-history.com has a ton of free ebooks. They are color-coded by level too, which is helpful. -
You're welcome. :)
Wow! Thanks for posting this. :) -
This could work for year 3 AO Pre-Year 5 Schedule
and this for year 4 AO Pre-Year 7 Schedule
There are also lists on the TOG site under Literature for each year that are online, not all but most.
HTH :)
-
I found these and wanted to post them in case anyone else can use them.
I can only find these schedules for year one and year two. If anyone has anything similar for years 3 and 4, please let us know. :)
This lines up Ambleside, SOTW, CHOW, etc...
-
Oh, well. Thanks for letting me know. :)
The site I was going to direct you to for a bunch of good ones for ancients is Wowio. It no longer seems to offer the books I was going to recommend, and it looks like it's a pay site now too, no longer free. I'm sorry! -

This is a very nice list. I'll be starting the ancients with my 5th grader next year. Any chance that you have a list for that already? :)
Actually, Dragons wrote that. I'm in the same boat as you and am eagerly awaiting her list. Meanwhile, check out the other links. They're all very helpful. :)

Thank you so much, Carmen. That helps a lot. :)

Should I assume you're teaching the middle ages because your kids are in 2nd and 5th grades?
I have this plan for medieval times. It's western culture only, not correlated, and entirely mainlesson.com titles. I have other titles too, scattered over my computer and various CDs. If you tell me what era, I'll make a list.
Chapters Title
13 Stories from Dante by Mary Macgregor
13 Stories of William Tell Told to the Children by HE Marshall
34 Famous Men of the Middle Ages by Poland & Haaren
15 Viking Tales by Jennie Hall
30 The Boys Cuchulain by Eleanor Hull
10 Stories of Beowulf Told to the Children by HE Marshall
9 Stories of Robin Hood Told to the Children by HE Marshall
21 King Arthur and His Knights by Maude Radford Warren
16 In the Days of the Giants by Abbie Farwell Brown
Total Chapters = 161. Total Books = 9.
Therefore, read 1 chapter per day, take one day to introduce each book and one day to discuss after it's been read.
Total Discussion Days = 18.
Total Chapter Days = 161.
Total Lesson Days = 179
Take 1 day to set the books in historical order.
Actually, we'll be starting our 2nd round on Ancients next week. But I'm keeping this middle ages list for next year, looks great. Thanks! :)

archive.org has free books, including anthologies of fables, myths, folk tales, hero tales and the like. Tanglewood has an actual links integrated in here: Free online reading schedules are available
Our Young Folk's Josephus is free in one of these... I think it was Guttenburg.
I'm confused, all I see are lists of books that are not in the public domain (except for Young Folks Josephus) that correlate with SOTW. I don't see any other free ebooks. Am I missing something? Thanks! :)

Have you looked at tanglewoodeducation.com (exactly what you asked for)
and oldfasionededucation.com, also amblesideonline, obviously.
I couldn't find the ebooks at tanglewood. Thank you, I love oldfashioned education site, it's great. Thanks for reminding me of ambleside, I had forgotten all about that site. And I now remember another I'll mention in case anyone is interested, Baldwinproject is great. Thanks! :)
TOG and SOTW?
