  1. Yes, I am actually thinking that maybe it is too late too change to singapore math at this stage. What a pity!
  2. Hi My Grade 6 ds has done Right Start Math And Jump Math. I would like to start Singapore Math but would greatly appreciate some advice first. 1. Looking at the placement he would most likely start at 5B. So would this put him behind his grade level? 2. How long does each book take to complete? 3. what do you use after 6B? 4. Do I need the textbook, workbook and the instructor guide? 5. Which edition do we use esp since we're in Canada? Thank you very much
  3. Hi, My kids will be starting their Grade 6 and 8 next month. I would like to use Galore Park's English with them, but not sure which level to choose. Can someone please guide me to the appropriate books to use for this grade. Thank you
  4. Thank you for the wonderful and helpful suggestions.
  5. Hi, We will be using saxon's kindergarten math. I just need the bear counters to complete the kit. I can however, only get hold of bear counters that come in 6 colours (Canada). Does it really matter if I use the six coloured ones instead of the four coloured bears? Thanks
  6. Hi Can anyone please recommend any good kindergarten workbook that could be done almost independently when I'm busy teaching the others? I would prefer something that would have lots of cut and paste activities, mazes, puzzles, chose the odd one, differences etc. Thank you
  7. Thank you very much. I really appreciate the replies!!
  8. Thank you for the replies. So is the public school version any different from the homeschool version? Here is a link to the workbooks, http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=saxon+math+k+ Thanks
  9. Hi, I would like to know more info Saxon Kindergarten Math.The Homeschool Kit comes along with both the Teacher`s Manual and Meeting Book. These books have a publication date of 1994. Then there is the Saxon K Workbooks that are now sold separately with the publication date of 2007. Can these workbooks be used with the 1994 Teacher's Manual? Or is there a newly revised teacher's manual that goes along with the workbooks? Thank you
  10. Thank you very much for the suggestions!
  11. Hi, I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could direct me to a writing program that my GR 6 could use independently. She does have good writing skills, and we do have Write Shop Level 1. However, due to circumstances I need something that she could use on her own for now. Thanks
  12. Hi I signed up for Evan Moor's Teacherfilebox beta testing a while ago. I received the link, but unfortunately it was lost when our computer crashed :( If anyone has the link to the beta testing site, can you kindly pm it to me. Thanks!!
  13. Hi, I would greatly appreciate advice with regards to my ds who turned six in Sep. My older two children began reading at about 5 and it happened quite easily. I do understand that each children learns differently( that is one of the wonderful reason why I choose to homeschool), and that boys esp could take longer to learn to read. My ds really wants to learn to read and even complains that I am not teaching him enough. He knows the alphabet sounds, and knows how to blend. We have used 100EZ lessons but skipped to phonics pathways. He tends to read the words from back to front and he becomes so greatly frustrated when he can't get it right and starts crying and then says that he hates reading. We hardly even go through five words and it is still too hard for him. Another concern is that he still can't count properly beyond 6...he always misses a couple of numbers- and that is only to number ten. I tried using rightstart math level A with him...but can't recognize anything beyond 5. He loves writing...sometimes he will just sit with a library book copying down paragraphs in his notebook or he writes pages of his own invented writing. He is also crafty. Could he have developmental delay or is he still too young to worry about? What can I do? Thank you
