Just starting out on our IEW adventure! And going through the TWSS dvds.
I am using the 1st ed TWSS.
Can anyone tell me if there was alot of changes from the current ed?
Also if theres ANYONE with the 1st ed I would love to know if you have pages 17-23 as the booklet I have inherited seems to be missing them. Although he does seem to talk alot, and reference the pages only occasionally to read out aloud.
Would love to hear comments on your journey. I have a 7th grader. Am in Australia.
Keep warm!
Cheers

I am hoping to find someone who did Fix It! (the older version) and has a copy of the student pages. IeW is not supporting the older version anyone, but I can obtain a copy of the text.
I am hoping to use it for editing practice as a supplement.
I have Student Pages for Book2 (frog prince) and Book4(the king and the pea), so am after the other student pages in the series!
thanks guys!

Hi Guys
Trying to get a handle on what my daughter reads: the books with the Animals with the Big Eyes make alot of appearances at my house.
I know reading should be a bit hard so that you have to stretch and guess the meanings of words to expand your vocab, and I get that my daughter likes to relax with downtime, but there would have to be some really rollicking good fun books that are pitched just a bit harder than her comfort level?(so she would be drawn along by the story and improve her vocab along the way)The book,by Elizabeth Wilson, seems a bit dated and slanted to American? HIstory.
I live a bit remote out here in rural Australia and could possibly order some from my local bookstore, but Im after maybe an easily accessible list of books, that have stood the test of time. For a ten year old girl.
Any suggestions welcome,thanks so much

Hello from Australia
I am new to this site, so its very nice to be here!
I am so grateful for the resource that SWB has given to the world, its been holding my hand for a while now, and I finally made the plunge to take responsibility for my little girl.I bought alot of textbooks recommended from Amazon. Love Amazon. The books are amazing.
Now down to the nuts and bolts. I didnt get a spelling program, and I cant figure out what level my daughter, 10, is at spelling wise.
It was very hard to get any meaningful communication with her school last year, and I am not sure if she struggles with some of the bigger words in particular. But shes great at pretending/throwing a fit.
If I could get a hook on where she is, I could then use one of the word lists on the internet and go from there.
Theres not a lot in Australia, so I end up on the net alot, ordering things which is OK.
ANY help appreciated.
I enjoy reading the threads they are very helpful
Sincerely
Barb

Hi from Austalia!
Having a bit of a **MOMENT**
After maths for Grade 8.
The delivery drivers are on strike here, due to COVID, so I got to thinking, is there a DIGITAL version of Maths workbook for Maths G8. Even better if its Singapore. Or Dimensions.
I checked SCRIBD and theres some primary years on there, but no secondary.
Online, it seems the books are sold out in many places.
I can see some secondhand in US.
Theres alot of Maths help in the house so the textbook is optional right now. Just to get her going with something till I can get back to normal.
If you have any suggestions would love to hear
thanks
