Tech Support (Parent and Student Access)/Understanding Weekly Schedules
04-18-2021, 10:58 PM
Good afternoon,
I am trying hard to convert my family full time to CM using Ambleside Online. I have downloaded some of the Weekly Schedules but there are two things I'm struggling to decode. I cannot find a key on the schedule and this is probably glaringly obvious but.....
For History and Tales it refers to CHOW and TCOO - can anyone tell me what these are please? Thanks in advance

TCOO is “this country of ours”
CHOW is “child’s history of the world”
Anchor of my soul, you sustain
And when I’m in the storm
you remain, good to me

It all gets less confusing and overwhelming as you go on.

Also each year’s booklist helps to decode the weekly chart. Have you already printed that out too? That is the “key”

Thank you so much. I assume it will be easy for me to find the author.

The full titles of the authors and books are on the website. Look for the curriculum pages by year

Is that a promise! It's what has stopped me for 5 years! Determined this time to give it a real good go.
