Deb,

Here is another thought for you. I typically spend 2 weeks on a paper. I give them several to choose from from several levels form a couple of weeks. They can normally find one that they...

Honestly, you could easily stop at week 34. Most schools don't even make it close to Clinton. So if you miss the second George Bush and Obama, it won't hurt anything, IMO. We are going to Europe...

No problem. I just remember noticing in one of the update to Microsoft about it disabling the autorun feature. I hadn't bothered to read this thread before.

Security problem. The auto run will not work on my computer and I know exactly why and I bet it is everyone's elses problem as well. If you do security patches from Microsoft, then one of the...

I wanted to start a new discussion that spins off of an old one in Year 4. Marcia said this,
Hey, Mary

I know EXACTLY what you mean, and we adopt that approach as much as we possibly can with...

Hi Mary.

Are you from Texas as well?? You know we don't HAVE to do anything!!!! To me, if you do all 4 years then you easily get 2 years of American history and 2 years of world. I think on the...

Sorry, his paragraph formatting didn't come through, but I think you can tell.

I wanted to post my son's literary analysis paper since so many of us had questions. It was his first time to do this, so I didn't think it was too bad for a 9th grader. He has several years to...

I just wanted to chime in on this subject. I completely agree with Laurie. I'm doing year 4 this coming year and purchased the print version along with map aids, evaluations and pop quiz. I, too,...

I enjoy this play since I was Cecily(sp?) in our One Act Play in high school and won an award for it. http://tapestryofgrace.groupee.net/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif We ended up having an...

Hi! We are in the same place. This is what I have decided to do: He is about to read The Heart of Darkness. I am going to have him underline every single instance that refers to darkness. After...

Hi we are starting unit 4 and I must say that it is MUCH better. I'm glad you are having them read from poetics and frameworks. It is much better than unit 1!!! or especially last year. I'm glad...

I wanted to share what I plan to use to supplement church history next year. My church was founded in 1901. For the 100th anniversary, they published a church history. It is a wonderful hard back...

We just did without it. I think I combined weeks 13 and 14 and just lectured on the information.

Christine

GOOD!! I'm so glad. To be honest, I haven't used as much of the dialectic literature this year. For example, my son has already read all of the dialectic literature in Unit 3 and the and alternate...

Hi Marcia and crew,

I have a suggestion for dialectic level literature as you cycle back through redesigned to revise and such. As a mom, for history you have a great bridge with the dialectic...

One thing, when I say I didn't encounter it and my teaching field is English that may not be saying much. I only needed 24 hours in a teaching field. I placed out of 6 hours of freshman English and...

Hi Marcia,
Just wanted to tell you how much I LOVE what you have done with the curriculum. I didn't mean the quote to sound like I was unhappy with it. Quite the contrary, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the...

Hi Erika,

I think there is a huge difference in the rhetoric history and the rhetoric literature. I think it is reasonable for a high school child to do the rhetoric level history. My 9th grade...

I searched all over the website and couldn't find it. I finally found this link on my disc:

Look under literary analysis 12th grade.

Part of the problem is the Microsoft blocked Autorun in their newest updates. So I was...

Same question. I'm not sure what happened to the samples or where they are!!

Christine

Did anyone ever find this. I'm on week 23. I looked up Literary Analysis in the hard copy of WA and it mentions these and other examples. I looked on my disc and can't find it. Where is it?? I'm...

Hello from East Texas! I combined weeks 13 and 14, I think. It was the week about Victorian England. They were supposed to research and do a report about it. I didn't have some of the major...

Yep. It is my son's favorite book as well. I had already decided NOT to have him read it and was substituting some other titles. I got the FOF Radio Theater version and we listened to it on...
