Thanks for replying. Yes, I have seen several times that Sonlight K ahould be used for 1st grade and Sonlight p4/5 should be used for Kindergarten. I think that I am going to use HOD until first grade and then swith to Sonlight K. Good luck!!
I was just curious about why you do not want to use Sonlight again? I was thinking about using HOD until my dd is 6 and then using Sonlight K for 1st grade. I am just collecting opinions about Sonlight.
for a 7th grader. I do not want anything to formal. She loves to draw and paint. I am looking for something maybe for a beginner. I have been looking at Artistic Pursuits for Junior High. Has anyone used this? Could it be used for someone that has not had much art experience?
I use a utensil caddy that I bought from Pampered Chef a long time ago for about $15. I use it for everything markers, scissors, crayons, colored pencils, gluesticks etc... they each have thier own compartment.
What was your favorite book from Core 5?
Tales of a Korean Grandmother was one of our favorite books this year!! Torches of Joy is good, but it is really looong! We have been reading it since January. We did not do the bible (RGAA), it seemed too time consuming! We follow the bible reading (Core 5) and do our own bible study. We do love the EHE though.
I just purchased R&S preschool books and they are great, but I will not be using them until next year when my dd is 4. She will not get the full benefits until then. I love Kumon books. I love BFIIAR. We are pretty much just reading the BFIAR books right now. We have done a few lapbooks with the books and I get all of my ideas from homeschoolshare.
We have just started with Sonlight this year and we are doing Core 5. We are loving it! I am just wondering, how many of you have started with Sonlight and stuck with it for many years? Do you use the LA or the Science?
