Ideally a child should be on Year 1 for 5th grade so for the high school years will be on years 1-4 in order.

I want to start TOG with my second grader. If I start with Year 1 that puts him out of order for HS.

Should I skip a year for the first rotation? If so which year?

Should I try to combine units and catch him up so by the time he is in 5th grade he will be in Year 1 (again) in otherwords Speed up


Or let him be out of order for high school. either way one year gets done one less time than the other years.

I realize a child might not be doing TOG for all of high school, may graduate early etc. but the year 1 grade 5 thing is really bugging me.

How do I handle this? He has had K and 1st in private christian school. He knows about Moses, and can tell about Pharoah (I asked him and he knows it's a ruler and was telling me a bit about it) but he hasn't gone in depth on Ancient history LOL. He also can tell you stories about Moses. So I know he got some of that as well.

What year should I start with. What year should I SKIP?

thanks for any help, Loretta
