Beginning AO link for Donna-Jean Breckenridge's use of AO - jbg1131 - 06-10-2014

Hi!
I am reading the "Beginning AO" page about getting started where it refers to Donna-Jean Breckenridge's 'How I use AO' and 'How I teach AO'. The link to view this post doesn't appear to be active. Is there a way/place to view it?

Thanks!
Jenny

Jenny, is this what you're looking for?

Our daughter just graduated high school on Saturday, so this brings some poignant memories today :-)

Are you talking about the FAQ? All the links here seem to work: http://www.amblesideonline.org/FAQ.shtml#canido

If not, can you give us a link to the page you're on?

Oh! Nix that! It is true that there is not a link in the body of the article (where it says 'here'), but I now see one at the top as a separate question.

I was looking at http://amblesideonline.org/beginning.shtml,
about 1/2 way down on a section from Alicia in CA.

Donna, the link at the top of this page appears to be the same content as the link you sent. Thank you!

I have spent so many days and hours reading and following links:) We are excited to begin AO in the fall!

THank you!!

This was the article that convinced me I could use AO. I practically had every word of Donna-Jean's memorised, I think!

Thanks for this link. I have not read it before and it is filled great advice. I just got to the part where you said for narration you would sometimes have Nathan ask you questions about the story - I love that Idea!

What a wonderful thing to read today, Jeanne, thanks so much!

I'm feeling a tad adrift, as our third just graduated, and our youngest is not being homeschooled right now (due to his poor adjustment to life in our family). I'll be fine, just shifting my identity after 24 years of homeschool. Your words were a blessing from the Lord, reminding me to be grateful!

Wow, Donna-Jean! I just finished reading these posts. What a great help to others! I noticed this was written a long time ago, and I can't help but wonder about the years since then and where your family is now:) What a blessing that you continue to help others. Thank you for your time. We are just beginning this journey (my oldest is 7 y/o). May God bless you as you enter this new season.

Thanks, too, to the rest of you for helping me find these posts. I'm printing off to make notes:)

Jenny

I had never read that before, thanks for bringing it to our attention! My son is so much like Nathan...I'm wondering if you could share how Nathan has 'turned out'?
