    We used your code and purchased the ancient cycle of biblioplan to use next year for my 3rd, 5th and 9th graders. 😊 I am so excited to use this program! We used story of the world when my kiddos were very young (k and 2nd) and moved onto beautiful feet books. We started our oldest with bfb when we started homeschooling her 6th grade year. I love bfb, but when my oldest was ready for their high school ancient history, I just could not go through with it. Looking through the biblioplan program, it looks like it will be a much better fit for all my girls! I love the timeline and map work that ties everything together and helps the student make connections and I also love all the book and resource recommendations!!! That family guide is a treasure trove! 😂 This summer I plan to sit down with my girls individually and go through the recommendations and let them select the books they will be reading independently and start ordering from thriftbooks! I was praying about history and your videos about biblioplan came at just the right time and I truly feel like they were an answer to prayer. I have so much peace and excitement about history next year!!! Thank you!

    This year was our first for Bilioplan (Ancients) & we love it. I love how the text & the worksheet Qs start off with a Biblical teaching then streamlines into a world history teaching. It’s simple and engaging.
    I myself have learned so much & My husband enjoys it too.

    Thank you for this review! I’ve been doing SOTW with my kids. I tried a formal history program with them last year but I could tell they just weren’t ready for that amount of information. I’m really intrigued by Biblioplan and will look into it for next year. I love that it accommodates many ages.

    I love both MFW and Biblioplan. So... I use both🤣. I bring in Remember The Days and choose some books off Biblioplans list. But follow the MFW teacher guide. I love the Bible in MFW and really like the teacher guide lay out. Maybe I'm just used to it.

    I found Mystery of History at a thrift store for $2 and bought it! I'm loving most of it, but I'm not sure if it's the direction I want to take my kids down with regards to different faith beliefs and opinions. Have you used it before along with Biblioplan? Any thoughts on it?

  • @claire_bellington
    @claire_bellington Рік тому +1

    Thanks for the video Megan! We have used MFW for 8 years now and love the strong Bible incorporation. Does biblioplan have more than just Bible reading a day? Or is the Bible just something that is pretty much checked as read for the day?

    I have three questions. 1) I am considering getting a bundle but idk what to get. Next year I will have a PreK and a 4th grader. 2) Is the literature and writing sufficient LA for a fluent reader. 3) Does Biblioplan use historical fiction for literature? We are considering the switch from Story of the World. I love that it still uses Story of the World though because my son LOVES it. We would be getting level 4.

    Do u have a video on the BiblioPlan’s ancient history?

  • @MichelleL83
    @MichelleL83 Рік тому +1

    Great video! I'd like to know how many independent readers do you assign to your older kids with BiblioPlan? I have the family guide, but it does overwhelm me and leads me to think that I have a lot to figure out. We haven't used it because of that overwhelm. Clearly, I needed a hand holding and am probably over-thinking things😅

    One thing about Story of the World. It skips creation.

    We're about halfway through the first Story of the World book. I first heard about it from you and then talked to some moms at church who have used it. I like how it reads like a story but I'm definitely interested in switching to Biblioplan in the future after seeing it in several of your videos for the following reasons: More pictures. My kids are young and thrive on pictures and color. Expressly Christian (SotW is not anti-Christian but is also not Christian based.)

      MFW definitely looks too complicated for my style of schooling 😅 so many charts and parts.

    • @GoodPersonTestWebsite
      @GoodPersonTestWebsite Рік тому

      I'm planning to just get the text and the coloring pages and maps. My oldest is only 7 but we love reading aloud while coloring as a whole family with all the little ones and building upon knowledge.

    • @GoodPersonTestWebsite

      SotW sure is a lot more affordable though 😅

      I received a catalog for MFW and pretty much just laughed at the prices and was like yeah no 😅 not for us.

      Thanks for coming to my TED talk 🤣 you ended up saying a lot of the things I said. I was chattering away while watching as if we were having a conversation 🤣 I was sick this earlier week and am full of energy now - forgive my rambling. 😅❤️ thanks for the video, sister in Christ!

    SOTW 4 is used in some high school history plans, I think.

      @PenniesAndSalt  Рік тому +1

      Typically it is used in elementary and some middle school. It’s written to target 1-8th grade depending on the volume.
