Blue Hen Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 We used SOTW for the kids in the grammar years but now with one in Logic Age and one in Rhetoric we've 'moved on'. For the Logic Age kiddo he outlines KFH, does lots and lots of reading, writes topic reports---lots of them, keeps a timeline, and does more reading. The Rhetoric Age kiddo does history as a Great Book Study as outlined in WTM. It is working quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraL in OK Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 6th grader: History Odyssey Middle Ages. 2nd grader: SOTW2 with Activity Guide, aligned with HO Middle Ages for my sanity! Both: LCC recommended reading for some American history, British history, and Rome/Greece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristiana Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 This is my first real year (1st grade) and we're using SOTW with the AG, plus a whole ton of library books to supplement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMCassandra Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I'm glad to see some other Biblioplan users on here. We used it for our first round of history, and now we're using it for our second. I'll probably switch to Omnibus or TOG for high school, though.

Daisy Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 My Father's World: Adventures and it was Beautiful Feet before that. We are going to do R&S 4th grade History with MFW ECC and then we'll probably either continue with MFW or go back to BF. I loved BF so much!

Susan in SoCal Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 the SOTW series this year. It's such a fabulous history curriculum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny in Florida Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I write my own plans, pretty much following TWTM chronology, but pulling together whatever resources I like best (and find cheap!). --Jenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolyn in Ohio Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 SOTW for grammar, WTM suggestions for Logic. I'll have a rhetoric student for the first time next year, so it will be TOG for everyone. Carolyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie in MS Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 We have used many things over the years, but currently Joshua is about to finish up Notgrass Government and we will then return to Diana Warings Ancient Civ and the Bible. LOVE IT!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chai Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I write my own plans too. We have completed the first rotation using SOTW as a spine. This year, we are back to the Ancients using a mixture of materials. I have the Guerber histories. We completed Story of the Ancient World (not my favorite) and will start Story of the Greeks next week. I'll add in other books like Augustus Caesar's World and Famous Men of Rome. Right now, I'm planning to do Omnibus once this rotation is done. I'm sure that there will be other exciting things coming out in the next three years, so I won't commit to it yet.

Ann@thebeach Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 There are so many great history programs out there! I wish we could just do history and nothing else :p Even though I've researched this area to death (as many of you I'm sure!) I still haven't really decided to stick with 1 program. I'm using WP Amer Story 1 this year because I thought it was perfect for both of my kids. But next yr I plan on going to SOTW 1 and starting that with my 1st grader and my older one will follow along. We'll continue with the series. But I also really like Biblioplan...I see using that as a supplement with SOTW in some fashion (or the other way around). Whatever I use I KNOW that my kids will learn way more history than I ever learned in school! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
