And anti Catholic stance.

Thank you for your comments! I have decided to try doing the reviews, and work that weeks lessons if he is not 100% on the review. If it becomes obvious that he is struggling, then we will simply continue to work through every lesson and review. Again, thanks for your advice.

My 9 year old, were he in school, would have just started year 5. He is currently doing year 4 MEP. He is "behind" due to outside issues, not his ability. I have just given him the year 4 end of year test to do, and he has passed it 100%, in about 20 minutes. My question is: would you get him to stat year 5 MEP, or continue with year 4? He is about half way through year 4. Thanks

Hi, I am looking for suggestions for biographies for the list of great men and women to cover in the grammar stage. Also, any suggestions on additional people worth covering? Many thanks Gary

Thank you all for your replies. I wasn't convinced with TJEd, so just wanted some input. I have a friend who is really into it, and it does seem to be working for her family, but I must admit, it just didn't sit right with me. I have a copy of the book, so will read it, for fairness sake, and indeed if there is anything that can be used, then great. I suspect though that we will continue with the classical education we have be using for the last 5 years. Again, thank you all for your replies.

Firstly, we love the well trained mind! We intend to use the approach to educating our children through all three stages. That said, I've be chatting at length recently with a friend who uses TJED with her kids, and I would like to hear what people think of it, and if it can be merged into WTM? Thanks

Hi, I have recently purchased this book, but would now like to purchase the activity books to go along with it. I have found where to buy them online, but would really prefer to get them as PDFs as we are in London, and to be honest, I'm too impatient to wait for delivery. If anybody knows where I can purchase these in PDF format, I would appreciate it. Thanks Gary

I have just purchased book 1 of the Cambridge Latin Course. I would like to hear your views on it if you have used it, and also ways to enhance the course, be it through websites you have found, (please list!), or other ways. Thank you.

Hello, I would really appreciate it if you could take a look at my 7 year old son's copy work. He has just started cursive (2 weeks ago), and I would just like to have others opinions as to how he is doing. Thanks Gary

Thanks for that. It's nice to get input from others on here. :)

Would just like some opinions really on how our ds's, (6 in April) , handwriting looks. I have a hard time getting him to hold pencil correctly, as he tends to wrap his thumb around top. Also, he says he feels more comfortable when the pencil is more vertical than slanted. http://s1152.photobucket.com/albums/p496/homedad1/ Thanks Gary ds 5, dd2, dd11m, ds11

I stand corrected.:blush: I wasn't too sure on the US grades. Thank you.

This is not correct. Our son turns 5 in April 2011, and IF he was going to school, he would be starting Reception (Kindergarten) this September, (which is not compulsory), but not Year 1 (Grade 1) until September 2011.
