Aludlam Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Can someone please tell me how this works? My little is sort of a book worm. I only just realized that in Core "3" if you go with the adv. readers, you read both the regular and the advanced. How is this scheduled? I was hoping to reuse this core with my next little, but she might not be on the adv. level when we get to it. Will we be able to "easily" reuse the schedule with just the regular readers? thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukeswife Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I'm using Core 3 right now, we're only on week 2, but in my schedule (IG) there are separate lines for regular readers or advanced readers. The way I understand it, you pick which one you want to use and then just follow that row in the IG for the year. So if you say wanted to do ADV. readers this year you follow that row and ignore the Reg. readers row that year, then when you want to use the reg. readers next time through you use that row, and ignore the adv. readers. From what I can tell the ADV. readers just increase the pace of the regular readers so that they can fit in some extra books that aren't in the regular reader schedule.

Tess in the Burbs Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 they are listed separately. My dd is doing regular and my ds is doing advanced. They can easily see what they need to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KellieMI Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I am also using SL3 with my sons. One is using Advanced readers and the other Regular as well. We are only on week 3, but they have loved every book so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tess in the Burbs Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 You girls are awesome! So, how are you liking 3? We like Core 3. The read alouds have been great! My son is always sad when I don't have time to read ahead, lol. I do add History Pockets in from time to time for extra hands on stuff. And I got the Hands n Hearts Colonial History kit this year...we made candles and such. And we visited Williamsburg recently. The kids have enjoyed this Core a lot.

sands1978 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I am finishing up Core 3 with both my kids. I can tell you that my daughter who loves to read reads all advanced readers and some of history as well. So we would never would heve done it with regular readers only. Really love this core.
