My oldest is 11 1/2 and we started with Module 5, Early Modern Times, just because. We had studied some ancient Egypt a while back so they were ready for something else:) To be honest, I did let my oldest choose…my middle boy would just do whatever, he’s only 8.
But, like suzukimom mentioned, the 1st-3rd (or 4th) have guides you can purchase that give lesson plans, etc. The modules 5 and 6 do not, but from what I’ve read they are working on them (I can’t wait).
Blessings to you.
