amandajh Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Do these mesh? Does anyone use SOTW and memorize the VP timeline cards too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monalisa Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 We did last year when we did Classical Conversations, and I was using SOTW 1 at home. They sort of mesh together; there are things in each one that aren't in the other. I really don't think they conflict. My dd enjoyed doing both of them.

dsmama Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 We do them w/CC and SOTW, also. So, for example, this week in SOTW2 we'll be reading about Prince Henry the Navigator, and we'll look at the card and facts on it as well. This site lists connections between the two: http://www.redshift.com/~bonajo/SOTWmenu.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenmamato3 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 i'm thinking strongly of doing this combo for our study of the Middle Ages. anyone use the VP manual along with the cards, or just the cards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhusted Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 We are using SOTW 1 with VP this year. I actually bought a schedule from www.easyclassical.com. Unfortunately, it's not going as well as I'd hope. The schedule does not go in order of SOTW, so there is a lot of skipping around, which I don't like. We are also not using the additional activities from easy classical or the VP manual. I prefer to just use the SOTW activity guide. My kids enjoy the mapping and they will color while I read. I chose to combine SOTW and VP because I wanted to add more biblical history to our studies. But I don't like the flow of the cards. I prefer to just use a narrative story. All this to say, that yes, they do go well together. If you just want to use the cards and maybe the memory song, I think they'd work really well together. Good Luck, Joanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutTN Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 We are planning to use just the cards and the memory cd with SOTW 1 this coming year. We got the schedule from the site someone already posted. Not sure how it will work?! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homeschooling6 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I plan to next year using Easy classical's schedule. I can't wait to order VP cards so I can get a better feel for the schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I made my own cards for SOTW 1 t0 3 You can find them at the file section of this yahoo group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delaney Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I write up cards from the review questions in the AGs and use them as memory work. My girls know 90% of the stuff from SOTW 2 chpt 1-28 just by doing this! I had the cards and sold most of them because I thought they were more of a pain to deal with.
