Any suggests for an Earth Science Curriculum that is Christian based, young earth and for an 7th grader? Thanks!

There is also Diana Waring's History Revealed. They have an elementary activity guide that I really like for the younger kids. Good luck!

Your curriculum looks great, as always :) Now I just need to figure out how to fit it in :) Thanks!

Oh, that is a good idea!! I didn't think of that! Thanks!

This has been reprinted by Yesterday's Classics. I was wondering if anyone has used it and if so, how did you use it? Did you just use it as a read aloud? Thanks!

Thanks for the response, Sue! We are doing RtR next year too!! So your older boys didn't use Writing Tales before they started the IEW book, but did fine? If that is the case, do you mind me asking why you chose to use Writing Tales 1 with your 4th grade child? Do you wish you would have used that with your other kids to help them get ready for the writing in IEW? Do you think you will continue Writing Tales 2 with your daughter next year? Thanks for your help. This has been extremely helpful.

anyone??

HI, I am wondering how these two programs compare. Are they similar? Which should be taught first? What ages have you used them with successfully? I have a really nice mom trying to help me figure it out but she has never used Treasured Conversations so I am wondering if maybe someone here has and can help compare the two. Thank you! Background information...I am wanting something for my upcoming 5th grade child. The curriculum I will be using for the Fall has IEW Medieval Writing scheduled but I took a look at it and realized that my child hasn't done very much outlining and writing the way IEW teaches. We use HOD and do a lot of oral and written narration. We have done quite a bit of grammar but my child doesn't seem to be retaining as much as I think she should. Thank you!

Roxaboxen The Little House Letting Swift River Go The above books are more serious while these are just cute and fun to do silly voices with: Big Chickens by Leslie Helakoski I am sure there are lots of others since my books shelves are overflowing, but these are what first come to mind :)

Hi, Alison. We use CLE LA for my child who is 6th grade. We have used them since 2nd or 3rd grade with her. She does it pretty much independently and does a great job. It works for her and she knows more grammar probably than I ever was taught in school. I just read the lesson/beginning part with her to refresh my mind, basically, and then she does it on her own. I find it quite advanced and rigorous, in my opinion. She doesn't do the handwriting but does everything else. I am happy with it for her. My younger kids are going to be using Rod and Staff as we can sit together and do most of it orally. I also really like Harcourt Flash Kids Spelling and their Language Arts. They are workbooks and go through 6th grade I believe. I will be adding in the Rod and Staff workbooks called Sentences (I believe that is the name) for my soon to be 5th grade child and then decide what to do with the younger kids at 7th grade. We also did 4th grade BJU English this year for one of my kids and liked that. They rotate each unit between writing and grammar. I didn't like that there was that break of writing and no grammar. My child would have a difficult time remembering concepts without that built in review. CLE does a great job of review daily. If you can work in some review or just be prepared for that slide of retention, if it happens, then you may like BJU English. It doesn't cover spelling though. Sorry if this is confusing! We have struggled a bit too with LA! Let me know if you have any questions I can help you with.

Has anyone tried this? I was thinking about Level C and I checked the website and it said that levels C-H which is 8th grade, I believe, could be used with multiple ages. What is your experience with it? Thanks!

anyone?

Hi, I remember a few years ago someone posting a list of additional science readers or picture books to go with the Answers In Genesis God's Design science sets. I did a search but can't seem to find the post now. I am particularly looking for additional readers or pictures books to go with the God's Design for Heaven and Earth if anyone has done that and would like to share. Thanks so much!!

Thanks! I think I figured it out. I appreciate you checking back in though!

I found the link :) Thanks!

Thanks for the idea! I would love to check it out but am wondering what grade level that would be now for sonlight. I don't think they go by letters anymore??? Or maybe a direct link to the one, please? Thanks!

Thanks! I have already started some of that :) I always create more work for myself than needed, lol! Thanks for your help. Off to check the ideas out. Thanks!

Thanks!! Checked those out. Any other ideas? Thanks!

Hi, I am editing my original post. I think I am going to try to make MOH work with my 3rd grade child to combine with her older siblings. Does MOH 3 have literature lists for picture books or other readers? I can't find a lot of sample of the Companion Guide. If it isn't included in the guide has anyone made a list to use with it? Thanks!

Thanks so much for your help! I looked it over and was very overwhelmed so I decided to clarify my question for now for what I am really looking for.

Has anyone put together a picture book list to align by weeks with Heart of Dakota Resurrection to Reformation? My 3rd grader really wants to be a part of the older siblings curriculum. Thanks so much for your help!!

Thank you! I just ordered most of the program used from amazon. I hope I like it!! Thanks everyone!

Thanks! That helps a lot! I had found that sample page but somehow looking at it now, after your help, it makes so much sense!

So those aren't called "Treasures" correct? Is it just called Mcgraw Reading and then the grade level you want? Thanks!

Thanks so much! Do you happen to know if this teaches writing to or just grammar? Thanks!
