Help!
I am reading The Latin Centered Curriculum and am sold on the idea, but I am 6 years into home schooling. Simon is 12 and in the 6th grade, Chloe is 10 and in the 3rd grade, Ivy is 3 and Willow 16 months. I have been using Sonlight and we are doing the Prima Latina course and are using a Greek and Latin vocabulary course. I have been teaching them both the same except for math. My questions are... Will I now have to start teaching them separately? Where do I start for their ages? And will I ever be able to get them caught up to where they should be at this point in there schooling?
Thank you so very much for any help.

Don't panic!
No, you definitely don't need to start teaching them separately. :) You can merge years on many subjects. Here's an article to give you some ideas on how to prioritize:

Hope this helps some, and please don't hesitate to ask for more specific advice if the article doesn't answer all your questions.
Happy New Year!
