Mommamia Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I like and have each of these titles. My problem is that I cannot decide which book to use when?? Boys and Girls of Colonial Day History Stories For Children Stories of Pilgrims American Tales-biographies by Hewitt American Pioneers and Patriots Abeka 3r grade-American Heritage Living History of our World by Angela Odell Study of Famous Americans by Calvert I was thinking of reading 1 book at a time, 1 month at a time(or more).I would also add in various history readers to go along with what we were reading. Which books would you choose for 2nd grade? Which for 3rd? I was thinking of: 2nd- Boys and Girls of Colonial Days, American Pioneers and Patriots, Study of Famous Americans 3rd-Stories of Pilgrims, Abeka, History Stories for Children Because they are long books-I would read LH of our W and American Tales ongoing(maybe designate 1-2 days a week to each) Is this crazy? Too complicated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mama2Many4 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Right now we are doing American Pioneers and patriots, and after that we will do Boys and Girls of Colonial Days. That would be my suggestion to start. These books are fantastic though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommamia Posted November 5, 2010 Author Share Posted November 5, 2010 Thanks so much for your input! Are you reading a chapter a day....a week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mama2Many4 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 We read one chapter 2 days a week. So on Sunday we read a chapter and on Monday do Science. Then on Tuesday we read another chapter and on Wednesday do science. It works out well for us. My son is 7 and very interested in the stories.

twoxcell Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Right now for 2nd grade we are using Beyond Little Hearts for His Glory, and for history it uses American Pioneers and patriots, stories of the pilgrims, and boys and girls of colonial days. We are also reading some out of Our American Heritage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
