Thank you! I haven't told DH yet. He's at work. :)

Ok, I'm just making sure. The second line is kinda faint. :) Thanks!:)

:)

Thanks!

Thanks!

We are familiar with Sonlight; we've used Cores K and the first part of American History. I totally messed up on history this year.... so now I'm looking at Sonlight again, specifically the Eastern Hemisphere core. How easy/difficult would it be to secularize this core? Is it very mission oriented?

Thanks! :)

Can someone help me figure out what exactly I need to order? I'm looking at Voyage level 5 and up. EDIT: Should we start at voyage if she has not used MCT before? Also, how fast is their shipping? TIA!! :)

Ok, so you do MUS full time and TT only the lectures and the quizzes, unless she needs more practice? I'm wondering how long overall it would take to do a lesson a day in each program. My dd does TT already and it usually takes about 45 minutes or so. I'm wondering how long a MUS lesson would take?

Thanks for the bump! :)

So no one combines these 2?

:lurk5:

I'm curious to know if anyone combines Math U See with Teaching Textbooks? If you do, can you tell me about how you make that work? How do you schedule it?

Thanks! I did go and checked out fine. It looks like I have bronchities.

I have a slight cold. Cough, stuffy nose, I have to breathe with my mouth open. Aside from that, now I am feeling nauseated and dizzy. My hands are feeling shaky. I do not have a fever. Is this all just part of my cold? I feel horrible right now. :( Edit: i also have a pokey feeling in my right breast that comes and goes

Not through the school district. I wouldn't even know how to go about that? I'm going to his ped and will ask for an overall evaluation. This is also my son who I believe has ADHD and moderate sensory issues. Thanks!

Thank you.

It's not just that he forgets. He will sit and stare at the book and it's almost like he's forgetting that he is doing something. And he'll also say that it's hard for him.

I just don't know what to do anymore to help him. :( He's always been slow to learn, I'm completely certain he has some learning difficulties. I have an appt coming up for him to hopefully get some referrals. Last year we did Singapore math 1a and b. I started him this year on MEP 1, thinking we'll review first before we start MEP 2. Well, he's having a really hard time subtracting between numbers 0-2. He just cannot wrap his brain around it. I tried to explain in so many different ways, but he just doesn't seem to get it. As I've said in the title, I'm feeling very discouraged. I feel like I failed him. I don't know how to help him. His reading is seeming to get better. But he still confuses b and d quite a lot and he also has somewhat trouble keeping his vowels straight. Sorry my post is all over the place. I'm so sad for him. :( __________________

Thanks for all replies. :) I've been talking to an awesome Montessori school. It is about a 40-45 minute drive for us each way. I would love to send my dc there next year if it all works out, but I'm worried about the drive being too much 5 days a week...

If your dc were able to get full scholarships, how far would you drive for a great school? :bigear:

Memoria Press sells this book with a study guide. Has anyone used it? What do you think of it?

I love Pelikan watercolors. I used them when I was a child and they are awesome. You can order them at amazon.
