I started reading this way about 2 years ago, reading a chapter or 2 a week from each book; also like to have an audiobook or 2 for when I'm ironing etc.<br /><br />Re Ourselves, I only read a small section each time and not every week. We've been reading it for 2 years and have done about 120 pgs. (AO recommends 22 pages per term all through the upper years)<br /><br />If you look here: http://amblesideonline.org/CM/vol6complete.html#180b CM said, "We spread an abundant and delicate feast...... and each small guest assimilates what he can.'

Although it has been difficult and slow I am beginning to enjoy it again. I was just curious as to whether you have a few books going at one time or like to focus on the one book.<br /><br />We are also reading Ourselves aloud. Sometimes I feel like most of it is going over their heads but then at random times they will bring up something we read and relate it to a situation.Natashanoreply@blogger.com
