HI glad you have found us. It is good practice to use BCE/CE now unless specifically mentioning the christian calendar. Hope this is useful. Home schooling is a very admirable undertaking. With the time that you have available it will be great to take things slowly. When you are reading texts for English, take the time to read them through before disecting them. Discuss the book as you read, but don't pull it apart. It will help later on to be able to look at the text in context.
