  1. Curr-Click is having Black Friday specials. http://www.currclick.com/
  2. http://www.amazon.com/Help-Me-Talk-Right-Lessons/dp/0963542613/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1249845839&sr=8-6 I would like to second the recommendation for this book. My ds also had difficulty pronouncing the /r/ sound. I spoke to a friend of mine who has some background in this area and she told me to be patient since many children outgrow the problem. When my son got to the point that his mispronunciation was causing him to misspell words, I tried this book and it worked very well for us. The exercises are fun and don't take much time.
  3. I'm also planning on using KISS grammar this year. I will second the plug for the Yahoo group. In the files section is a pretty basic tutorial that gives step-by-step directions on navigating the website. I found that quite helpful.
  4. Thank you so much! What a great list of resources.
  5. WG worked well for my children. They both thought the cards were a fun way to learn/analyze parts of speech. I think it's a great curriculum for children who learn best through hands-on activities.
  6. Thank you so much for sharing! What a great addition to our studies.
  7. Thank you so much! This will tie in wonderfully with our study of ancient history.
  8. That sounds really good! I will definitely give this one a try.
  9. I used this book with my son who was having so much trouble pronouncing the "R" sound: http://www.amazon.com/Help-Me-Talk-Right-Lessons/dp/0963542613 When my son's difficulty in speech was interfering with his ability to spell words correctly, I decided to give this book a try before contacting the ps. I purchased mine from Amazon. I'm no speech therapist, but the exercises given in the book are easy to follow and now my son speaks well. We made speech part of our school day and he actually thought it was fun.
  10. I used this devotional with my boys. It kicked off some great discussions for us. Character Building for Families
  11. Personally, I didn't have any lesson plans for it. Each week we would pick one or two words and basically get a chuckle out of the funny visuals and the silly captions that are used to help explain the words. By just having fun with it, I found my kids remembered quite a bit.
