My dd20 and I watch it weekly. ;- ) I agree that this is one was sad... and I am still 'lost'. Where will they go from here for next week???

http://www.rainbowresource.com - Rainbow Resource http://www.amazon.com - Amazon http://www.cbd.com - Christian Book Distributors http://www.homeschoolclassifieds.com and the 'for sale' board here, of course! : -)

I purchased both when beginning AAS 1 with my 7 year old and am glad I did. It depends on the child, but you should move through quickly. We started the last week of January and completed it today. We both really like the program. Good luck!

We have Spelling Power, but I am currently using AAS with my 2nd grade ds. I like Spelling Power and plan to begin it with him around 4th grade. Right now AAS is a wonderful choice for us. He is learning the spelling rules, building confidence and we both really like the program. I have read of others who have also started with AAS and followed with Spelling Power with great success.

It is, and this recipe is great: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Honey-Glazed-Ham/Detail.aspx I stopped buying the HB ham as well, and now just go with this. My family all loves it!

Shaklee's Get Clean Fresh Laundry here. Works great!

:iagree:

:iagree: Me too! This one is my favorite....

:lurk5:

Where do we find that?? Thanks in a advance!

Does anyone feel they need to, or it is better to, use them together? My ds has been doing very well with the FLL and will be finishing Level 2 (2nd grade) in a couple of weeks. But.... we just completed WWE #1 last week and are just moving into WWE2. Does anyone see any problems with this? I have looked ahead at WWE2 and it covers a lot that I do not feel he needs to miss. Your thoughts are appreciated! :grouphug:

We use Shaklee Optiflora, and I consider them the best. They offer a two part Prebiotic and Probiotic system that is excellent. http://ewing-enterprises.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=80638

We read parts of Alice in Wonderland this year, and all of Wind in the Willows. My 2nd grader (7 yo) enjoyed Wind in the Willows the most. I also considered Black Beauty but decided to wait, so I am looking forward to reading the responses. : -)

We enjoy Delta Education's Science in a Nutshell. Yesterday there were even a couple on the For Sale board. Good Luck! http://www.delta-education.com/siansplash.aspx?subID=5&menuID=17

We use Math U See and really like it. They have sample pages on their site. I would check it out.

Thank you very much! And for answering so quickly. Here goes my first order.... wish me luck!

I am ordering for grade 3 for my ds. I know I need to start with Grammar Island, but don't know if I need the Basic Homeschool Package, or the Complete. Please help! :grouphug:

Will you please explain how? I cannot find an 'edit' button. Thanks!

PM me and I will give you the information for a local group in Abingdon. :)

We used Primer for K, then Alpha for 1st grade. You can see what Primer covers here: http://www.mathusee.com/default.php?cPath=1_17 And here for what Alpha covers: http://www.mathusee.com/default.php?cPath=25 I hope this helps!

I am! I actually live in Abingdon, but it is 15 minutes from Damascus. :) There are a lot of home schoolers in our area. I have a very good friend in Damascus, as well as a cousin. Let me know when you arrive and I am happy to introduce you.:grouphug:

:iagree: Tethering them and taking them out frequently.... that and the treats! Good luck.
