Sounds worth checking out. Thanks. -
Exciting! Best wishes for you and your growing family!

I'm wondering what you would recommend to a friend if they asked about a great grammar curriculum. I'd love to hear your suggestions.

Love her descriptions! And I appreciate that she's trying hard with punctuation in areas. I agree with above that you should let her know there are errors, but that's she is doing fantastic at putting her thoughts onto paper. I can tell she is very fun and creative :)

I think it looks great. She covered lots of ideas and had nice descriptions.
-
That's fantastic! Isn't it wonderful to see these thoughts being put down on paper? How fun!

Thank you for the info on acquiring this. I was curious as well.

Is my first grader's handwriting too messy? Pic included.

I think it looks like she could use a bit more practice with lines and letter formations just so it's repetitive and really sinks in, but it's not terrible. With my son, I use A Reason for Handwriting on top of the copywork, spelling words, etc. I think that in this situation, practice really helps to perfect the art of neat writing. Have fun! -
I've heard the Superman thing before. I wish grammar weren't so complicated to remember ;)

Thank you for your input. I've acted as his scribe for all of the writing mostly... Besides his handwriting and copywork, etc. I just didn't know when it's necessary that he's doing these things on his own. We use Sonlight and love it. Sometimes I struggle with knowing where he "should" be because he reads SO far ahead and his math skills for a 6 years old are incredible too. Thanks!

Hi. I'm looking for recommendations on a program to get my first grader writing better. He's an excellent reader (reads at a 4th grade level) and speller, but he just doesn't seem interested in formulating his thoughts on paper. How can I help him in this area and make it fun? Any ideas?
