[Can I get some positive reviews of Saxon Math please? :)]

We are switching to Saxon this year (from Horizons) and I am really excited about it. I think I may have ordered one level too low for my oldest, but I also think the review/having it easier for a bit will be beneficial to her, too. For my middle daughter we will go from Horizons 2 to Saxon Int. 3, but I haven't received it yet to see how it compares!

 

We will also supplement with Life of Fred.

[Best pencil erasers?]

These are our favorite erasers- they work really great:

[Does anyone do a FOUR day week of school?]

We do a 4 day also. My kids go to an enrichment type program for 6 hours on Fridays, so we do school M-Th.
