This is ds's: The white enormous castle towers over the tall mountain. Built on top of a steep gigantic rock, the castle overlooks the land beyond. On either side of the castle stand numerous tall trees. In the distance is a wide stretch of landscape dotted with trees. The castle's steep pointed towers stand over the castle's hundred rooms. Should he describe the castle a bit more? Or would this be good for you? :confused: Thank you.

I think if you have an Amazon account, you can do it that way. Audible is connected to Amazon.

Little Women Peter Pan is not free. :sad: Please tell me I'm wrong.

Thank you so much!

Thank you! I will tell my sister to look him up.

Thanks. It's for my nephew. :001_smile: My sister still drives to Irvine to their not-so-helpful pediatrician, grrrrrr. I told my sis that y'all would know best.

Okay! Going to purchase it now...:auto:.

Hi Justin, Is this lecture from the February seminar at Peace Hill Press? Thanks

I bought it at an asian market. ugh.

He loves the Percy Jackson series, Mysterious Benedict Society, Hunger Games, Sons of Neptune (and other Rick Riordan), Phantom Tollbooth, BFG and anything by Pseudonymous Bosch. I'm trying to find another series for him to start reading. If this book is not appropriate do you have any suggestions? Thank you!

Oh wow, thank you! I can't wait to share this with ds.

On #3 Oramus His translation was, We pray. I thought he was correct, but the correct translation is, We are praying. We don't get it :confused:. How do you know when to add are? Then on #4 Laudant His translation was, They praise. The answer is They do praise.:confused: How do you know when to add do and not are? I guess They are praise won't work :tongue_smilie: but I still don't get the rule because it wasn't explained in the text (or was it?) Can someone explain this to us? I'm ready to sign him up for the fall class at Memoria Press because I don't know if I can help him through it. Ugh. Thank you so much!

He might like the Guys Read series by Jon Scieszka. It's bunch of short stories by different authors. Ds has really enjoyed all the series. Oh! My son just turned 11 and he had a Star Wars Nerf Gun War party with lego candles on his cake. lol! http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_5_9?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=guys+read+jon+scieszka&sprefix=guys+read%2Caps%2C552

There's a new book by Jane O'Connor author of the Fancy Nancy series. Her new book is Nancy Clancy, she's older and solves mysteries. My daughter read the book in one day!!! She kept hugging the book and saying I LOVE this book.

:lol: We would definitely get lost! Thanks for the info, I don't know if we'll have time, but I'm making a list of things to see and do just in case we are able to go. Plus, we are also driving to LA to visit MY whole family. :auto: Disneyland, Legoland her we come!

:D Family is gonna visit an old friend in Fairfield then drive back to Daly City and then to Sacramento for a reuinion. :auto: :confused: Trying to figure out which airport is the closest to Fairfeld. Thanks for your help.

Thank you! I wish I had this too! I wouldn't be doubting my teaching abilities. :lol: Disclaimer: that was not really rough rough draft.... we went through it about 2x and this is what he came up with.

Johannes Kepler studied heliocentrism at a university in the 1950s. Heliocentrism is a theory that the sun is at the center of the solar system. At that time, most people believed that the earth is at the center of the solar system which was called, geocentrism. In 1600, Johannes worked as an assistant for Tycho Brahe and studied the orbit of the planets for a year. The movement of Mars puzzled them. As a result, Kepler looked for a mathematical explanation. He said, “I was almost driven to madness considering and calculating this matter. I could not find out why the planet would rather go on an elliptical orbit” Eventually he realized that the planet had an elliptical orbit. Later he made the “Kepler’s first law of planetary motion.” ******************************************** Please give feedback. Thank you.

That's great! Thank you. Ds will be working on his rough draft this afternoon *cross fingers*.

Thanks for posting these. I really appreciate it.

Thanks! I did search that thread. I think I checked through all the pages 3 times because I didn't want to be told to look there :D. I'm sure I missed it. I will google/ you tube/ and find videos for him on Netflix to get him going. I'm glad you say that it gets easier. Thanks again.

I don't know how to help my son get started. He has chosen his topics, but we are both stuck. I don't know how to help him. :001_huh: Thanks

Voted. :D
