maryr Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 We have used the Gileskirk humanities dvd series for four years. Our second son did the whole set 9th through 12th grade. I realized too late that the senior year was going to be very hectic and we didn't have a chance to really complete the last Gileskirk Antiquity very well. So with my girls, I have decided to start the 4 year set in the 8th grade and we will do something different for 12th grade. I'm a bit uneasy about doing the Antiquity with 8th graders. I know I will have to gear it down to their level and they won't be doing the reading that our son did in the 12th grade, but I am hoping that we can use the lectures and learn a lot from that. Has anyone used Gileskirk with an 8th grader? I would love any advice you could pass on, things that made it flow better for the younger kids, and any alternate books that you used. thank you , mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
