I've often thought through the years that LLATL looked interesting and was was something I might like. How are you all liking it. And, in an earlier blog, you mentioned Annalise putting things into her "reading journal." Does she do anything besides copy the book title into it? I'm loving this daily journal.
I like the older versions of LLATL, which is what we are using. The newer versions are a more of a workbook format. My reasons for getting these out again are 1) we will cover some things that I don't think to cover and 2) with someone else writing the lessons the boys will be less resistant and not try to talk me out of assigning them so much. They seem to be enjoying it too.
Annalise's reading journal is mostly made up of titles and dates. We make a note of who read the book to her, unless she reads it herself, which is starting to happen more and more now. Occasionally, I write down some of her comments about the book.
