  1. Why not TWTM? It has lists broken down by stage, and year, assuming you're beginning grammar y1 with a 1st or 2nd grader. For instance, my 5th grader read the list under logic stage Ancients this year. Next year, she'll from the y2 list, and so on. Paula's Archives provides a list of SL books in TWTM stages, and also has a list of other historical fiction & non-fiction broken down by easy-to-young adult: http://www.redshift.com/~bonajo/index.htm . Classical CHrstian Homeschool also provides a listing: http://www.classical-homeschooling.org/grammar/index.html Do you have a Veritas Press Catalog? If not, you can see how they organize their historical fiction titles: http://veritaspress.com/ . HTH
  2. I wouldn't as it would put too much stress on you and your husband, especially with "business" connection of the relationship. You then have to find out whether it's legal for you to hs another parent's child in your state. I adopted an older child (9 at the time) who was NOT a match for hs'ing. I had to come to terms that a school environment was best for my child. I hate to say this, but if the family wants to hs, then they should be the ones teaching. What if the child is behind academically? What if the child does not progress? What if the child has learning issues unknown to you? Will the parents blame you if the child does not learn or progress over the year? JM2C. You need to ask yourself, "Why do they want me to hs and why can't they hs their own child?" I would charge the going rate of one of the better private schools, and extra on top of the monthly fee for daycare & holiday breaks.
  3. There's a Yahoog group that offers downloadble & printable copies of an OP Latin text, Latin: Book One, with answers too. I think there are answers to 1/2 of the lessons. Last year, my then 11th grader worked quickly through the lessons & moved on to Latin via Ovid. My younger two (3rd & 4th grade at the time) went between LBO and the Minimus series, and this year are using latin Prep or Lively Latin I. Here's the Yahoo group adde: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Latin_1/
