    I have a 3 children their ages are 13,9, and 7. What I am concerned about it starting this with the whole family approach how will my 13yo finish all 6? If they are designed to take one year she would only get five of them instead of 6. And what about the older readings for high school on the modules that she has already done. I don’t know if I am making any sense. I have been doing a cm approach to homeschooling but have had them all on different years using a different site. I can’t do it any longer it is like juggling and it is exhausting. I feel like I am missing the joy. That is why I like the approach to putting them all together for much of it. I hope this makes sense. My 13yo did just finish a study on Egypt, but the younger two have not, but it seems strange to not start the Bible work in Gen. HELP I really want this to work and for all of them to get a great education not just the younger two. Any suggestions?

    Okay, there are lots of ways to do this.  I’ll toss out a few:

    1. Start at the first Module and don’t take summers off.  Even if all you do during summers is the history module…  This will give you enough time to get through all 6 modules at the set pace.  (we homeschool year round)

    2. Don’t worry about doing the egypt year, it’s okay.

    3. Double up lessons.  Start with module 1 and try doubling up lessons twice a week.  You’ll finish the modules faster by a bit (about 70 days faster I think) and will have gained enough ground by then end of Module 3 to do the other 3 modules without doubling up.  This still leaves summers off.

    Most of all don’t stress over it.

    Thank you Tristan! I am excited about homeschooling again for the first time in ages! I feel like I have finally found something that will work with our family.
