I never thought about using my olders to teach my youngers. I guess that will come with time. Maybe once the 3 yr old enters K, my olders can help a little with him. Thanks again for your input! You got me thinking "time blocks" instead of maybe subjects/boxes. =)

Thanks for your reply! We had a great year with LHFHG last year. So glad Beyond is working better for you this year. You are AMAZING doing 4 guides and homeschooling 7. That's awesome. We have 4, but only the first 2 are in school. They should be in Preparing, when the 3rd starts LHFHG so they should have more independent work by then. I think I need to pull out my "managers of their home book" and do a schedule that everyone can see and "participate" in. Right now, I've written a schedule for me, but maybe they need to know so I don't have to direct everyone.

Hi Sue - I noticed you are doing Beyond this year with two children. I'm guessing they are somewhere around 6 and 8. I just started Beyond with my 6 and 7.5 year olds. How are you breaking up your subjects to teach them? I'm having a hard time "losing" one of the kids as I focus on the other as there is hardly any independent work. Do you add in independent work (like ETC or something)? I'm thinking about working directly with one child, then switching, then doing all of the common stuff last (history, bible, rotating box, poetry, handwriting/copywork, storytime). Any advice?
