Thanks for this thorough Flip-Through. My husband and I are considering homeschooling our kids, and one of the things that we would like to get a jump on are the curriculum choices. There are lots of out there which can be overwhelming. That's why I loved this video, not only for the Flip-Through but also for your feedback and opinion. Thanks! Would love to see any on the other subjects from BJU Press.

We currently use tgatb, but I'm getting the feeling it's not enough for middle school and starting to do record keeping

I noticed that BJU Press offers English, Spelling and Reading as separate subjects. For a struggling reader going into the 4th grade, would you recommend All About Reading and English from BJU as a possible combination? It seems like a lot of writing if I went all BJU, would love to get your feedback on what would work best. Thank you 😊

Thank you for this! I have had my eye on BJU English 2 since my daughter started Kindergarten. 😊 I am debating whether I want to spend the extra for distance learning. I'm leaning toward that to take one subject off my plate, but we'll see. I do want to find out though if any extra practice is available (like the CD) when you get the distance learning option.

They’re for different subjects. AAR is a reading program and BJU Press English is a grammar and writing curriculum. If your child isn’t able to read yet, I wouldn’t begin a very stringent grammar and writing program until they are pretty fluent in reading. When my daughter was learning to read, we used First Language Lessons since it was so gentle.

@@aplacetonest Thank you! That makes sense. I just got a little confused since there's AAR 3 & 4 and then BJU 3 onwards. I guess what I'm trying to decide is whether to start with BJU Phonics for 1st grade then transition to BJU English. I'm not sure that we'd need a reading program for four years.

Hey, I have a question. All the reviews I'm finding so far are how much the moms love it. I'm explicitly looking for content that the kids will enjoy and not be tedious for them. How well do the kids like it? Do they drag there feet to do it, or try to save it for last?
@aplacetonest
Жыл бұрын
I think that depends on your child's learning style and if they struggle with language arts. It is a very traditional, so if your child likes a lot of activities or variation, this might not be the program for you.

This was our first year homeschooling, we used Christian Light Education 3rd grade. We loved it, however it doesn't have writing and I don't want to bog her down with a ton of workbooks so I'm going to switch to BJU. Do they have a placement test? Everything you showed in this BJU 4, she's strong in (minus the writing part of course).

I'm not sure if they do or not but I will say, there is very little difference between their English 3 and 4 so I think you'd be fine using either one. Also, you can look inside each level on their website so that might be helpful to you!

@@aplacetonest do you think a child who did BJU English 3 could just go to BJU English 5 with no problem? My boys just finished BJU English 2 and 3 looks so much like 2 that I just wanted to go straight to 4. But I didn’t have the work book to look through and my consultant said I should go to 3 instead of skipping it. But the more I look at it, I really think my boys could go to 4 but I already purchased 3 because of my consultants suggestion. So since you said there isn’t much difference between 3 and 4, I am asking you what you think about skipping 4 after 3. I hope I didn’t confuse you. Lol

Yes, we are nearing the end but aren't in a hurry to jump into English 5. We just take one lesson at a time and don't stress about it because, from my experience, English 3, 4 and 5 repeat the same information. If you liked English 3, English 4 is almost the exact same with maybe a bit more detail.
