  1. Hi, We are using Rod & Staff Math which we love, however, it seems they don't offer HS math for some reason. Does anyone know of a math programme either on-line or text book style that is similar in method that does offer math in HS? Thanks in advance, Lisa.
  2. Hi, we are interested in getting this book along with its teacher manual but wonder if anyone out there has used it and can give some feedback. Combined they are not a cheap set so we are hoping to find out a little more about them before we make a purchase. We have a 3rd and a 4th grader. Would they be too old for this? the author has another book following Elfie, called 'Gio and Gus'. Would anyone happen to know if the second one is more age appropriate. Any comments would be greatly appreciated!
  3. Hi folks, Is anyone out there using Shurley English? My husband is interested in using this but I am a little nervous as I did not do well with this kind of style and not sure how well I will be able to teach this method. Thanks in advance!
  4. Interesting re: Memoria Press. I was looking at Angelicum Academy yesterday and was very impressed with some of their courses, especially the 'Faith & Life' series and that they offer philosophy for children! Wow, that's a biggie for me. Has anyone had any experience with Angelicum and their enrollment services? I am so grateful for all the replies!
  5. Our State does not require that we enroll but this will be our first year and feel we need a little more of a guiding hand at least for the first year. Right now we feel like we're getting off a large ship and into a tiny dinghy (the best metaphor I can use for going from a parochial school to HS). We are homeschooling because we have been left with no other choice although my husband and I want to do it and our children want to do it too. The parochial school systems here in our city has failed our children from many angles including using common core - ughh. they're going into 3rd & 4th grade. I will check out Angelicum!
  6. Hi, we are new to homeschooling and are interested in Kolbe, Seton and Memoria Press. Unfortunately we found out that Memoria Press does not offer enrollment so we will have to go with either Kolbe or Seton and use MP for enrichment. I've seen on other topics on this site that members have said Seton is traditional and Kolbe is classical, however, it seems like they use some of the same text books. In this regard, I am wondering if there is a difference between the two. We are keen on using a curriculum that is more classically orientated, hence our interest in Memoria Press. Thanks!
