Donna A. Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Aren't they listed on the website as one of the packages that you get to go with the program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marsha Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 No, I mean supplemental. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donna A. Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I guess I'm confused. Bigger is a complete package which includes *many* books. Why would you need to supplement? I suppose you could look at the Five in a Row booklist and see what fits. Those are picture books. How many children do you plan to do Bigger with? Do you have any idea how you're going to schedule things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsMe Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I didn't know there was one that wouldn't be listed on the site. :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crl Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 You could try looking at Winter Promise's American Story for some picture books or their LA for readers to match the time period. Are you looking for books for youngers to tag along, or for your main student doing the program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebecca Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I think (correct me if I am wrong) that Marsha probably wants to use this with a wider range of ages than the guide is for... including younger children into the program... right? Wish I could help! You could look at the Beautiful Feet Books Primary pack and see what is included in there... you could also go to a Barnes and Nobles and check out their early readers and see what you can find- or, if you like to research (like me)search Amazon.com for the Level 1-3 readers on different topics pertaining to Bigger. Just some ideas! I think Kay gave a great list! :) Rebecca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordFamily Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Kayinpa..that was a great list off the top of your head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChicoryChick Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Kayinpa..that was a great list off the top of your head. Thank you! but to tell the truth once I got started I went over to my bookshelf (after looking at the TOC in Bigger) to see what would fit...so it is not all from memory. :blushing: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
