naturalmom Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Does anyone have the schedule for Omnibus II? I am trying to plan out next year, along with additional readings, and I need to know what books are read when, and how much time is spent on each one. I won't be able to buy the textbook until at least next month - but I want to plan now:) Thanks, Trish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michelle in MO Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 First Semester: Primary Books: Eusebius: The Church History - 4 weeks The Confessions of St. Augustine - 3 weeks On the Incarnation of Our Lord - 2 weeks The Creeds - 1 week The Ecclesiastical history of the English People - 3 weeks The Rule of St. Benedict - 1 week Beowulf - 3 weeks The Song of Ronald - 1 week in 1st semester; 1 week in 2nd semester Secondary Books: The Hobbit - 3 weeks The Fellowship of the Ring - 4 weeks The Nine Tailors - 3 weeks The Dragon and the Raven - 2 weeks The Gospel of John - 2 weeks Robin Hood - 3 weeks A Midsummer Night's Dream - 2 weeks Second Semester: Primary Books: The Song of Roland - 1 week (continued from 1st semester) The History of the Kings of Britain - 4 weeks Macbeth - 2 weeks Sir Gawain and the Green Knight - 2 weeks Dante's Inferno - 3 weeks Canterbury Tales - 2 weeks On the Bondage of the Will - 2 weeks Secondary Books: Winning His Spurs - 3 weeks The Two Towers - 4 weeks Henry V - 2 weeks Richard III - 2 weeks Ephesians - 2 weeks The Return of the King - 3 weeks I think each semester is 19 weeks long; there are mid-terms and finals for each semester. We didn't do those. I did, however, do the evaluation (test) with every historical book and have my girls write a paper on the literature books, which I submitted to Cindy Marsch for an evaluation. I also had them take notes on every session, which helped quite a bit. I hope this helps you with your scheduling! Oh---also, we didn't do every book; we did almost all of the Primary books and some of the Secondary books. They still had plenty for a full credit in literature (besides the credit I'm going to give them for their other English work) and plenty of hours to supplement our history credit. HTH!
