  1. I am *very* Catholic. We are in CC, and have never had any problem at all. I dont see an issue with the Statement of Faith in any kind of a way. Concerning the Reformation, this is not part of the Statement of Faith, rather a Vertias Press card that they learn only the front - that there was, in fact, the Reformation with Luther, of course as Catholics we call it different, and we have taught our daughter that. I dont like the back of the card, and have brought that up with our director (who doesnt make the VP cards, of course) and it launched into a wonderful jumping off point for discussion. There is nothing heretical about their Statement of Faith that I could see in any way, and although we are the only ones that make the sign of the Cross when the prayers occur, we have been met with only acceptance and love :) Its been nothing short of a wonderful experience. And CC as a whole is the best thing we have ever done. Vester
  2. When you say enhanced CD Rom - do you mean the Memory Work Resource CD?
  3. What is on the CDs? What is in the Manuals? :) Vester
  4. Hi there, We are starting classical conversatison in the fall. I cant seem to find anywhere what is in the Teachers Manuals or on the CDS. Can someone help me? I just want to know if I should buy them? Thanks! vester
  5. I've loved reading about all of these!!!! Thank you so much for the great ideas and stories - I love it!!! :) Vester
  6. Just curious when you did this, and how you came up with your name - there are some clever ones that I have seen, and now I"m interested! Vester
  7. Just curious if these two can go together (the Veritas Press cards and the History of the world - I just love HIstory of the world and wonder if they could work together? ) Thanks! Vester
  8. Next, I want to thank everyone of you who took time out to write - this is really appreciated. I think I will check out that book about 100 best, etc. that will probably help... But to answer Devotional Souls questions: She is probably a change it up kindof girl :) She loves workbooks, but would love manipulatives too! Scripted might be better, and then have something to deviate from instead of coming up on it on my own. She likes color if she had a preference, but I dont know that it matters to be honest... :) We are seriously looking at Saxon K, but also Math U See, Singapre and Horizons or Mcruffy.....sigh.....any more advice?? :) Oh, and what is MFW? :) Oh - and finally, she basically is almost done with kindergarten from last year, she is quite advanced and can add and subtract simple math in her head already. She is much better with English type stuff (she just learned about alliteration this week, yes, I know....but its true.) And she is reading, etc. So thats been pretty easy. We are looking for a good phonics program so I guess if anyone has any suggestions about that we would take that too haha! :) Vester
  9. First off, I want to specifically thank Crimson wife for taking time out to link all of these - how cool is she?? Thank you for that.
  10. Ok - so we homeschooled her last year, and she can probably do some K math already (she just turned 4) so....here we go. Im overwhelmed. Saxon, Singapore, MUS, Miquon, R&S, Making Math Meaningful, Horizons.....deep breath. I have no idea. I can't really *see* any of these except the cover of the books, so I have no idea which one to get, and/or why. I've read the reviews, but just like anything what will work for one person wont for another. So, I just cant afford to "try" everything to "see" if it will work. Any advice??!?! (please please. I need opinions/advice/anything!) :confused1: Thanks in advance! :) Vester
  11. Where do you live on the MIssouri side? We are in Lee's Summit! :)
