Year 7 now includes Beowulf as a scheduled read instead of a free read.
Also, the Basic or Lite version of Year 7 now includes Watership Down and Once and Future King.

Thanks, Kathy. Was something removed to make room, or was Beowulf just added to the schedule? (I ask because I have my weekly schedule all downloaded and formatted because we start school in July, so I'm wondering how much I need to update.)

Heaney's Beowulf won't add too much. It is a pleasure to read.

This sounds like great change! I had actually added this to the school schedule for my y7 (for us to read together).

Thank you! I was going to schedule the illustrated Beowulf and you've done it for me! And I like the new formatting on the curriculum page.

Is there a reason that term 1 has more books in several categories? There's Penny Candy, The Weather Book, Watership Down, and now Beowulf. Is term 1 a lot heavier then the other terms, or does it even out with Joan of Arc and Freedom's Cause in term 2? I know Joan is long.
I hope this isn't confusing, I just seems like term 1 is a little heavier as I make our planners, but I haven't read all the books.

Another change: the Weather Book is now spread over the entire year.
