We’re in the Middle ages this year and I will be buying the newly updated version. I will have a 4th grader and 6th grader. With the new book list for this history rotation, would it be too much to have them read all the books listed for 1st-3rd grade on their own and me read the 4th-6th grade book list out loud to them?
