So we are already struggling with the Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin. I’m thinking we are going to have to read this one aloud and take it slower because it even a little hard for me to grasp at times. Has anyone else had trouble with understand some of it? We are stopping every so much and discussing and narrating. I thought about adding Poor Richard as a supplement (both boys are in 10th and 11th) just to give a little easier reading. Do you think that is too much?
My ds struggled to get through that one as well. I got him the Audible audio book and I think that helped, but I’m not sure how much 🙁
Poor Richard is for younger students, but my 10 yo was struggling through that one so we are reading the D’aulaires Ben Franklin right now.
I think it’s the writing style of Stephen Daugherty, not sure I care for it. And the amount of words the autobiography contains packed in a little tiny book, is a bit much. My opinion, of course!
