  1. Thank-you so much! Sometimes I can be a little niave about internet companies. Helen in OH
  2. Last night I was researching info on Kindles from Amazon. Has anyone ever heard of the following website? I don't know how to link so here is the website: www.luciddeals.com/Kindle. They are selling for 64.95. I have never ordered from this site. Do you think that it is real? Helen in OH
  3. Thanks again for the additional input. I am thinking about one for my MIL for Mother's Day. It would be a group present kind of thing. Helen in OH
  4. Thanks a lot for the links to other sites. I had no idea what to think about for ebooks. Now I know where to look for more info. Helen in OH
  5. I am seriousely looking into the ebook thing for my kiddos. So I have brought up this thread and was wondering if anyone could add to it. I am thinking nook if we go down this road then the kiddos can share books. Any other thoughts? Thanks-a-bunch, Helen in OH
  6. Greetings, Well we are at the end of March. For some of us we have 2 months left to school before we take the summer off. We received a ton of snow this winter so our schedule is off. Right now I am trying to think of strategies to put us back on track. Here are some of mine: 1. Do two spelling units a week. Skit all the workbook pages and focas on the spelling words. 2. Treat Science and History like a read a loud. No science experaments or projects. Does anyone have anyother good ideas to quicken the pace of school before June. Thanks-a-bunch, Helen in Oh
  7. Thank-you for the advice in regards to Calvin. Since my son is a sophmore we still have time to look around at the different schools. Helen in OH
  8. I have a son finishing up his sophomore year of phs. We are starting to look at schools that have an engineering and swimming programs. Does anyone have any information in regards to Calvin? At this point it looks like a good choice if he is accepted. Thank-you, Helen in OH
  9. Thank-you! I will double check on the table of contents of BJ 4th grade. Helen in OH
  10. Greetings, I am looking into 4th grade science curriculum. I have used the 4th grade science before. My Kiddos liked it. Now I am tinking about changing to Flying Creature of the Fifth Day by Exploring Creation. Does anyone have experience with both and favor one after using it? Thanks-a-bunch, Helen in OH
  11. Great Website for other ideas also. Do you think this might be a great fundraiser for a Bake sale? Helen in OH
  12. Happy New Year! I like Ree Drummand's Cookbook. I think she very creative and funny. It seems like she embraces life even if it includes cow manure on the back porch. The recipes are simple. A beginner would enjoy the pictures and explanaitions. I am going to use it to teach my boys and girls how to cook in the kitchen. Thank-you Ree for inspirancing other to be creative! Helen in OH
  13. I have never heard of a specific program Love and Logic but I can see the advantages. I have six kiddos. The oldest 3 are boys. When my oldest was 11 I could tell that he was changing in the way that he was thinking. Now that he is 16 he needs help in learning how to evaluate and make decisions. My husband has a logical mind. So it has helped decrease the drama. I could really use a review of logic principles. The teenage boys know how to push your buttons. Yes, I thought about doing an independent study of logic. Now I am going to have to look into Love and Logic. thanks-a-bunch, Helen in OH
  14. Well, I don't belly dance. I have a friend who has been a missionary to Muslims in France. They are now located in Northern Africa. Well, she was a speaker at women's conference for our area. We are part of Presbyterian Church of America. My friend explain that she had to learn how to belly dance to be apart of the culture. The women would get together for Bible study on a weekly basis. About every 4 weeks or so, they would spend the time dancing. She considered it a form of excerise. During the conference, she had a group of conservative Presbyterian women up and dancing. There were no men in the room. It is fun and a great form of excerise. Helen in OH
  15. This is a wonderful idea for Christmass. I love this board. Helen in OH
