We decided not to do FIG this upcoming year. We are going to try EIW so, hope it works out! We will also be using TGTB handwriting again this year. Thanks for sharing.
It is from Word of Life, called their quiet time devotional (Conqueror)... here is a link to their current version: wolstore.org/products/conqueror-quiet-time-diary-daily-devotional-grades-3-4-2024-25
I find my kids need a mix of mastery learning and spiral review!!! Nothing wrong with going at a slower pace!!! My older kids have learned a lot of writing thru reading both good and bad pieces of writing as that’s how TGTB teaches it and I feel like it’s working apart from for my oldest!!! I didn’t see an issue but his class teacher did and after talking to the teacher I found out that they had difficulty expectations!!! I have a kid who needs to work on fine motor skills and she does art and legos!!! I love going over homophones with my kids to help them with the different meanings and TGTB teaches it!!! I’ve seen other curriculums for it!!! I didn’t kno worldly wise teaches different meanings of words!!! I have notebooks for spelling words from our HBL for each kid and I select words from it especially words that I see issues with!!!
Going at the child's pace is definitely a must for successful homeschool. Otherwise, it becomes unsustainable. I love that TGATB works for most of your children! It's great to have curriculum that works!
Do you have any 5th or 6th graders? What went well or didn't go well for you?

Hope EIW is a good fit. What grade will you be using it for?
@@CalmintheChaosHomeschoolI hope so too! I picked level 6 so, hopefully it works out. I was debating on a lower level,but I will see how it goes.
@@luv4all839 I have a friend whose daughter did that level and they really liked it (she’s why I tried it out).
What is the name of the 3-4 grade devotional? I missed it!

@@CalmintheChaosHomeschool thank you!
Does the reading detective have vocabulary? Trying to decide which route to go.
I would not call it a vocabulary program. It really focuses more on understanding what one is reading.
