Thanks for all the help. I'm hoping to make it to sodalitas this year!
Another question.
I see that EGR is included in the MPOA Fables class. What do the assignments look like for the ERG component? I tried EGR with my daughter when she was in 3rd grade and it wasn't a good fit for her....

Thanks for your reply!
Another thing I found attractive about CAP's writing class is its 3 days a week. Is once a week sufficient for MP's fable class?
I don't want to fail my kids in their writing! My older child has been doing IEW for a few years now and likes it, so i decided not...

Does anyone have experience with CAP's writing and rhetoric series? I'm debating signing up my 9 year son for either MP's Fables or CAP's Fable/Narrative.
Any insight?

I'm new to using a planner for our homeschool. Though it's been 6 years now. I have a 5th, 3rd, K this year. So It seemed like time to get organized! 😆

My question is...how do you use/do you use a planner AND the TM?
We just started school this week.
I'm...

Thank you SO much for the encouraging words! It means a lot coming from fellow MP moms.

Fireweed Prep when i saw your handle the fist time, I guessed you were in Alaska. I'll miss the endless sun summer nights surrounded by fireweed, even though I'm very allergic.
Sounds like you...

We have used MP in part or fully for 5 years. I am and more convinced this is it for me, for our homeschool.
That being said...
I got diagnosed with MS at the end of January, my husband had to switch jobs, he finished our remodel, listed our house in Alaska, and a month later moved to Alabama....

I need Fable help! 2x's a week....

For various reasons I need to scale back this year and change my plans of full cores for 2nd and 4th grade.
I didn't think I would be doing this....It was a hard but necessary choice.
We've used parts of cores since my daughter was in Kindergarten. This year we did full cores for 1st and...

Thanks for the response! I took another look and there it was...at the end of week two. It must be brain fog I usually can find things in the manual. I've been using MP manuals for 4 years now!

My curriculum manual doesn't have the latina review book scheduled. We just started 3rd grade--half days to be kind to my kids ha--- Ludere is scheduled, but not the review book. Does anyone know if it should be in the CM? I ordered from MP in June.
Thanks!

Thank you!! I think doing book 2 makes the most sense.
My rising 3rd grade daughter doesn't know her facts 100%, maybe 75%? It's adds so much frustration!
My rising 1st grade son enjoys math so more sticks with him.

Good to hear it gives direction. I do agree I need to get...

I've been doing Saxon math for 2 years now. Math 1 for my K son, and Math 1 and 2 for my daughter in 1st and then 2nd grade.
The reason why I use it is because it tells me exactly what to say. I'm not good at teaching math. I really need the hand holding.

I'm thinking of switching...

I'm really enjoying this thread, too! Its comforting to see that I have the age range as most of you. 8 yr old to baby. You are all full of wisdom that I need right now!

Cheryl Swopes article "The Danger of Discovery", was the deciding factor for me on MP full cores for next...

I found the book list links on the main site under the Contact Us tab, Knowledge Base, then scroll down to the bottom.
