APyper Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 We have been beta testing LOE for a while. I really love it but I wish it was already finished. I'm really considering returning to OPGTTR but they are so opposite. I think the biggest thing for me with LOE is that it's not finished and I can't picture where we are going and what comes next. Any advice from those who have dropped it? Has anyone gone from this way of teaching (all phonogram sounds, marking words) to something completely different? For those that love it, could you tell me your plans for after foundations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom2pandc Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I am using essentials with my 6 year old dd. we never used foundations as it wasn't out when I first purchased essentials last year. It is totally doable for younger kids if you spread a lesson out over 1 or 2 weeks. We do 1 week. I went through it at a lesson every day or two with my ds9 and had a problem with where to go next. Every grammar program I looked at "at grade level" was far too easy compared to the grammar that was done in LoE. We finally decided on MCT and so far so good with it. I'm not sure how much overlap their is with foundations and essentials, but I can't imagine it would be too difficult to glaze through the repetitive parts or just use them as review?
