Medieval Mom Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I know it seems like a frog marrying a pig, but does anyone use CLE for Math, LA, Reading and use AO (okay-- with a bit of WTM thrown in) for everything else? I'm considering going this route myself, and was wondering whether I'm the only one who could consider marrying such different schooling philosophies. We're doing a modified version for first grade, and it's working well so far ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIch elle Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 We use CLE LA, math & reading and have used Ambleside Online on & off over the years. Read my blog on workbooks May '09. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeAndTheBoys Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 We mesh similar things--CLE Math, and I"m considering switching from R&S and Pathway English/Reading to R&S--but we use a lot of more CM and Classical things too--MFW trying to add a classical bent-- Working well so far.

suzf242 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 We do something similar -- Rod and Staff for Reading, Math and English and AO for everything else. This is our 2nd year, and it is working out great. My dd7 loves both! Take care, Suzanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynful Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 We've been doing AO this year and liking it, however, I just ordered CLE Math and CLE LA. It should be here this week. I know its completely at odds with AO but *I* need it. It should allow them to work more at their own pace too which they've really been wanting. I think its all about what works for you and your family - not being boxed into doing only one thing. I, too, think different approaches are a good experience. Life and work isn't only about doing it one, right way. :) Good luck, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
