myfunnybunch Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Does taking 6 years to complete a 4-year curriculum count? :tongue_smilie: Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonshineLearner Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 Does taking 6 years to complete a 4-year curriculum count? :tongue_smilie: Cat Funny :) That's what our co-op is going to do. There's no practical way to go through SOTW once a week and be done in a 30 week co-op. So, we have to hurry through and skip things, or... well.. take it the way we've planned. I wanted to "help" people see choices that they could use... to go with us... Since some won't want to do SOTW the rest of the week since we'll be doing it so well at Co-op :) We are SOOOO excited!!! And, I'm just trying to cover all the bases. So, especially Cat since you mentioned it, how are you doing it in 6 years? Are you just using SOTW, or using other spines with it?? Ideas are what I'm looking for :bigear: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloridaLisa Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Actually, I think VP could work as a 6-year rotation if you add in a year of geography. 1st: VP Egypt 2nd: VP Greece and Rome 3rd: VP Ren & Ref. 4th: VP Early Modern 5th: VP Late Modern 6th: World Geography 7th - 12th: Omnibus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myfunnybunch Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 So, especially Cat since you mentioned it, how are you doing it in 6 years? Are you just using SOTW, or using other spines with it?? Well, in our case it's not exactly purposeful. We use SOTW as a spine, but I find library books and activity books and other resources that end up taking extra time, more than I'd planned. For example, we took almost a month to do a Viking study because the boys were fascinated by Viking culture. Or we spent about a week studying the Silk Road. Just this afternoon, my 6 y.o. asked his brother, "Do we have to do school in summer?" His brother said, "No. Well, history. We always do history." :D But we all enjoy our history studies, so we take our time. Your co-op sounds like so much fun. I wish we were just a little closer, I'd check it out. :) Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonshineLearner Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 Too bad you're not Cat!! We'd love you, but we NEED your 10 year old boy :) Course... the 8 and 6 year olds would be great, too... We seem to have more of the 6's though. Funny how classes fill out ;) Oh well, perhaps you'll help start one someday :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonshineLearner Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 (edited) St. Jerome Classical School has a great 6 year history plan (uses SOTW, too). I think I've seen it before, but now looking for it... I can't find their History Plan.... Do you happen to have a direct link? Thanks :) http://www.stjeromes.org/documents_school/The_Educational_Plan_of_St._Jerome_Classical_School.pdf Edited May 6, 2011 by NayfiesMama Found It Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Already Gone Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Evlogia's Ages of Grace is a 6-year rotation. She has a description here, though the curriculum itself is a) under construction and b) Orthodox. The description sounds like a good start, though, and is definitely inspiring (I'm not even Orthodox but all her stuff just seems so lovely!).
