Jeana Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Here is what I was thinking of doing with my 3 kids and wanted to get peoples feedback or suggestions to make it better: ds 6 FFL WWE Singapore Math Spelling Workout A] TOG Anciets Science books, books, books dd10 BJU dvd for everything except bible and history 5 TOG Ancients UG and some dialetic ds12 BJU dvd for everything except bible and history 7 TOG Ancients for D First Form Latin Vocab. from Classical roots What is everyone's general concensus on BJU's grammar and math? My children have done Singapore Math and Rod and Staff grammar as well as FLL. Will this be an ok transisition? I need a break from teaching and quite frankly I am struggleing with the higher level of learning in math, science and grammar. I wasn't an accademic and think I will benefit from the teaching from BJU. I do however feel a little apprehensive turning it over and that is why I am hanging onto history. I just didn't know if TOG would be a bit ambitious. I love it and want to do and don't feel compelled to do it all. Thanks for reading and any advice ahead of time.

Sew happily ever after Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 If I could afford the DVD route, I'd be using it this year. I think their math and LA are well written. Our local CS uses their math program and has bumped the grades up a grade level (grade 4 uses grade 5 math text). I've looked into their language (grammar) and it seems similar in approach to FLL...very strong on grammar topics just not done orally. I don't know much about TOG, but it seems like you should be able to do it since you will have some of your time freed up with 2 using the DVD program. The only problem might be finding the time to do it with them involved with DVD school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeana Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 Thank you. Is their Math behind in their concepts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sew happily ever after Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 i don't think so, but the CS was using Abeka for grade 3 which is ahead about a year ahead, so when the kids went into grade 4 they already knew most of the BJU math 4 text so they bumped them up to grade 5 math.
