Seeking advice from this tribe of homeschoolers. I am new to the WTM Community online but have been homeschooling for 4 years. I have four kids DS 9, DD 7, DS 5, and DS 6 months. My husband was homeschooled so he is very supportive of what I am doing. For the past three years, we have been in different CC communities (different ones bc of moving). I am disenchanted with CC. I don't want to start bashing CC, it just doesn't seem to be working for my family. However, it relives the burden of art and science and my kids love the social time. I am thinking about talking to my husband about not ret

I have a child that will be entering Challenge A in the fall of 2018. It's new to our campus, so all uncharted territory. I have some questions, but would like to ask them anonymously (hence, why I'm asking here, instead of my CC group). 1- I have read online that some families choose to opt out of Latin. If we choose to do this, how exactly do you opt out? For example, if your Challenge A student is on campus one day a week from 9:00-3:30, how do they omit one subject? I can see how this would be possible if Latin was offered at the very end of the day, then you could just pick your chil -
I've read through a ton of posts on Classical Conversations, all of which have been good and bad reviews. However, I'm not looking for a review as much as I'm looking for someone to help with a little perspective. We've had experience with CC for the past three years. Every year I'm torn between sticking with the program or completely flushing it. This year, we're sitting out because of an out of state move. We also have a great classical academy at our church that is cheaper and similar in nature but not the exact same material. I want to keep all my material for CC but honestly, I'

Hello, I was wanting to buy this CD memory song that I keep reading on this forum. (songs for history and science i'm assuming) I'm a bit confused about where on the website it is. Also, someone mentioned about getting the foundations guide. What is that? Is this it? http://www.classicalconversationsbooks.com/fogu4thed.html $75 is too much for me to spend to be wrong. Using this site: http://www.classicalconversationsbooks.com/fobo.html I see a lot of cycle 3 stuff. Since we are in the beginning of our journey, I'm assuming we need cycle 1? I see a cycle 3 audio 3 cd

Has anyone ever memorized the lesson titles of a MOH volume as their timeline? I am debating between MOH1 and VP History Timeline cards for Ancient History this year. MOH lesson titles look similar to VP timeline cards. What do you think? Pam

How do you use Classical Conversations...the Foundations level? Do you treat it just as memory work and do all of your other curricula independent of it? Or do you try to match it up so that what you're doing in CC syncs with what you're learning throughout the week? In CC this coming year we will be covering American History for our history memory work and Anatomy for our science memory work. But the core curriculum I want to use outside of CC will cover World History/Ancients (for history) and Earth Science and Space (for science). Do you have experience with doing things this way -
We are considering CC for our family next yer. We have been happily using TOG for the past 4+ years, but I need a change -- and we all know how true it is: If mama ain't happy...... I think TOG has prepared my son for much of what is presented in Challenge I, but I do think that he will find the writing a challenge for him -- especially the frequency. I do think that the literature selections in Challenge I in general look pretty "easy" but after talking with the Challenge I tutor (and friend), I think what CC is doing with the literature is worthy of a 9th grade English credit.

Hi all! My name is Kathryn. I live in a small town outside of Albany, NY. I have 7 children (9 and under), yes, I had one set of twins! I homeschooled my children up until this current school year. For various reasons we had to put our children in public school. :*( I'm praying that next year we'll be able to resume our homeschooling again. I'm wanting to start up a Classical Conversations group in Albany, NY area. If you know of anyone interested, please let me know!! The more the merrier! Thanks!! Kathryn

I'm trying to decide if I want to get the Resource CD or the Audio cd for this year for CC. Last time around (3 years ago before the new Timeline stuff) we got the Resource CD and then put the audio files on the children's ipods. I'd like to do that again but I need to know if the Resource CD has the Timeline Song on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

Has anyone ever heard of a book-swap co-op or is there one on this site? We are using Tapestry of Grace Redesigned, Year 1 this year. I was telling an lady that it's too expensive to buy all the books recommended just in the primary resource list for one level, let a lone two or three. She said that when she lived over seas there was a book-swap co-op. The way she described it was that one family would agree to buy a particular year plan/unit, and another family a different unit of the same year plan and then they would all swap books through mail to share expenses. I can think of a few differ

How heavy is the Christian content in Intermediate Language Lessons by Emma Serle (Particularly the updated version edited by Margot Davidson)? is it the occasional Bible verse/story, could it be reasonably edited out or substituted for? DD is doing very well with the Charlotte-Mason style Simply Grammar, I'm looking for something to follow it.

Was it a good match? I'm specifically thinking of core C along with Cycle 2 next year. I will have a 1st and 3rd grader. I know it won't match up perfectly, but need more accountability adding in books and such to enhance our learning. Thanks!

Is anyone else in the same boat as me? My dd will finish up her third and last year of Classical Conversations's Essentials of English Grammar program this year. If so, what have you used for 7th grade grammar?
