We're Taking the Plunge!

Well I have done it! After 8 years of using the same curriculum I purchased something new: Tapestry of Grace! It is official. I bought the Teacher's Manual yesterday online. We will do Year 1 Redesigned which is Ancient History.
I will admit to a big hesitation. I have done Ancient History with the kids at least twice. I am a little weary of Egypt. But since I wanted to start digging alot deeper with Tyler (will be a freshman in High School) I thought this would be a good place to start.
Tapestry of Grace will be used for History, Literature, Reading and most of my Bible. I will also use alot of their "Hands On" ideas as we need a little more fun in our schooling. The rest of my curriculum will stay the same. I am excited and will be closely tracking my order to find out exactly what day it will arrive!! :0) Stay tuned!!

Karen,
I'm looking forward to hearing how you implement TOG and how you like it. I think you and the children will enjoy using it very much. I know we do!
I'm going tomorrow to pick up a new year 1 pack from a local homeschool mom who isn't going to be using it. She is selling it to me for about $40 less than list price! Can't beat that.
