  1. Hello,

     

    My children(ages 5 and 4) are fluent in three languages; English, Arabic and my native language. They know the English and Arabic alphabets and don't mix the two up. Please i need advice on the best way to teach them in both languages. Is it best to do different languages on alternate days like Monday:English, Tuesday:Arabic, Wednesday: English? Or perhaps alternate weeks? I'm afraid if we prioritize one language they may lose the other.

  2. Walaikumusalaam Osmosis mom! Hello Jennifer, Judomom and Researcher! Thanx for your replies. I've been browsing the forums and i'm so glad i found this website!

     

    Dd's begging me to teach her cursive handwriting and is always scribbling and asking why it's not coming out like mine. Does the HWT provide an easy transition to cursive handwriting?

     

    A kiss for my namesake Osmosis mom! Lovely pic Researcher!

  3. Hello everyone! :001_smile:

     

    I'm Jumaanah. I'm home-edding my daughter(age 3) and son(age 2) and plan to do that with my new baby on the way. I've read lots on homeschooling but when i read the WTM i felt i had come home. I agree with all that i've read so far and i'm glad i came across it early enough as we haven't gone too far. It has also motivated me to fill all the "holes" in my education so planning on getting Susan's 'The Well-Educated Mind'.

     

    I'm about to buy my resources (list compiled from the WTM's resources list)and i would appreciate any advice and tips from you all. Especially in handwriting as i still don't know whether to go for Zaner-Bloser or Handwriting without tears.
