Hobbes Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Choosing 5 from the HSBC back issues... are there any in particular you have loved? I'd like to primarily get the newer ones. Also, have you ever done Arrows for books you've read in the past? There are a few Arrows I'd like to do because of the grammar/literary focus, and because we loved those books, but does it matter if we've read them a while ago? I probably don't want to read aloud those chapter books again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I haven't done enough of them yet to have favorites, but wanted to say that we actually prefer doing them on books we've already read and enjoyed, so long as it is recent (or memorable) enough for us to still discuss it. She loves seeing the quotes for copywork and remembering the story that they trigger in her memory! Even when we do them on a book that is new for us, I choose not to start the Arrow until we've read the entire book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are several books among last year's arrows which we've read already. Edited May 26, 2017 by indigoellen@gmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbes Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 No one has particular favourites? I know they all look good... :) Is it worth trying to choose based on making a mix of grammar concepts, or just prioritize based on books we like?
