Sorely tempted by Tabletclass super sale
lejardin replied to dauphin's topic in Logic Stage & Middle Grade Challenges
I did it too 😃 Math for next year is all set. And at such a great price! Thanks to all the discussions and finding out about it to begin with. It looks like a good fit for my DD 👠-
Lillehei, thank you for posting the link to the DVD. My library has it. I agree with Superdad and others to have dc know each presidents contributions, general time period/era to have reference points. Details are fine for a notebook page. The presidents song is also a fun way to learn their order too.

So glad I found this info! I've had the sample file and believe this will be a great way for DD to do worksheets for a change of pace. It worked me like Farrarwilliams said. Emailed the PDF file to myself and after installing notability I opened the PDF in my email and selected the option to send to notability.

I think I want a dedicated sewing/craft room
lejardin replied to DawnM's topic in General Education Discussion Board
This is my dream too. I have space in the basement which was kind of planned for my space years ago. Now I'm not interested in spending my free time in the basement LOL I hardly every go down there. (FYI the main area is nicely finished and what would be my area has a tiled floor I just don't like the damp, dingy feeling) Anyway, with your options, depending on where it's located, I'd take option #1 (door #1 lol). It sounds like you'd be on the maind floor with bedrooms upstairs (?). Seems it would be more private. Otherwise go with option #3 and redo the guest room. Just curious, where would your DH move his office? Wherever it ends up, I hope you do get your own space. Sounds great! -
You guys are a bad influence.

I'm going to need to buy a microscope
lejardin replied to Bang!Zoom!'s topic in K-8 Curriculum Board
I've researched microscopes here in the past and found some good information but it's like a new language! We haven't purchased one yet and are considering it as a Christmas gift for DD this year. At HST there are no reviews for the National Optical mentioned above. I would like to know more about the upgrade for the Home MI-4100std. It's available with an iris diaphragm and 1000x maganification. Are these features valuable for later sciences (high school) or just nice-to-have? -
Oh yes, I remember it, know all the words and used to sing along with Helen! DD just rolls her eyes (or is it plugs her ears :D) When DH and I start singing the oldies :lol:

Does it ever end? (Warning: Rant ahead)
lejardin replied to laughing lioness's topic in High School and Self-Education Board
:grouphug: :iagree: Good advice. I've had my share of these situations and they've been very difficult to deal with - I'm am so not confrontational especially when blindsided. For me it's usually been distance and lots of prayer. Also, when it's DH's family I let him "pinch hit for me" (we're watching the ball game now! lol) :grouphug: -

Glad you figured it out. My DD loves CLE too! ;)

I did take piano lessons but it would be work to actually play a song now, so no. At least I know/remember enough to help DD when she was beginning her lessons...

I voted double stuff but I'm feeling overindulgent right now. :tongue_smilie: My real answer should have been regular with ice cold milk (but I don't drink milk anymore and water just isn't the same). :glare: So I've graduated my taste to double chocolate (dark) milanos. :D

Awww, this is great :001_smile:

why we need to learn to diagram a sentence?
lejardin replied to kandty's topic in K-8 Curriculum Board
Ditto. Denise, that was an interesting real life application I didn't learn diagramming in school but I'm finding it's not so bad. :tongue_smilie: DD being a visual learner and artistic loves to do diagramming. OP, I've asked why diagramming is necessary too and realize it's simply a tool and one that works for us. -
Bashed on FB for schooling my own kids!
lejardin replied to 3RingCircus's topic in General Education Discussion Board
:iagree:especially with the bolded part. FB gets very few visits from me because of this. I do have some "friends" who use it positively and those I enjoy when I do visit. "Because nice matters" :001_smile: -
What is your favorite way to make popcorn?
lejardin replied to Slartibartfast's topic in General Education Discussion Board
:iagree: But if I make it, I use the microwave :lurk5: -
