SO not gender specific. My 6 yr old daughter can walk OVER the shoes she is looking for.
My favorite story about her dizzyness...I opened the windows in our bedroom and our door slammed shut. I asked her to go open the door, and put on of daddy's shoes in front of it (so it wouldn't slam....and this is NOT a new thing in our house!) She goes upstairs and comes down, wandering around the kitchen with my husband's gymshoe in her hand.:rolleyes: DH says there is NO WAY she is driving until she is at least 20, and able to pay for her own insurance.

Kids have such a wonderful, factual innocence. I agree that he should be told, and let him know that she is in Heaven with Jesus. THAT will probably give him all the peace he needs.

Hi!
I was in 3rd grade, so I was about 8 yrs old. I responded to an invitation at Vacation Bible School. THe lesson is vague, but something about Christ dying on the cross to take away our sins ;)
HTH, Cindy

My kids are still little so we usually do not sing much Tom Petty but Veggie Tales and kids bible songs are big around here. Once one of the kids starts singing the song, (usually only about one line) the rest of us are stuck singing it for the day. By the end of the day, we are ready to whack each other!
Find a copy and play the song, this might help him get rid of it.

Why should we do math for 45 minutes to an hour daily, when they can complete a lesson in 15 minutes. Even with that my middle has already completed two books this year.
I go by lesson. DD does math like your son. I have her doing 3 pages a day in her 2nd grade book so that she spends some time on it. This guarantees 15 minutes :rolleyes: Reading though, 1 lesson can take up to 30 minutes. Most things, she flies through. I do check for retention and it seems to be sticking. All that to say I go by amount of work, not by the clock.

Does anyone know what the cost is in OHio, for this? Are the videos 'on demand' and it is computer based, right?

Keflex, as I remember is a very potent antibiotic. which it sounds like he needed. I would just give him yogurt or acidophilus pills with the medicine. In addition to killing the bad germs, they also kill the good stuff in your gut. Allergic reactions to abx are usually skin rashes or anaphalactic shock.
NOT AN EXPERT

Unleashed dogs-that's another pet peeve of mine.So many of my neighbors think they have to let their dogs run free to "protect their property".That would be fine if the dog would stay on it's own property and out of the road.Course I'm a bad neighbor.I had my ex-neighbor's new dog picked up as a stray because it wandered onto my property.How was I to know?It didn't have any tags and I'd never seen it before.
I won't even get started on this one.....12 houses on our street and 4-5 'roaming' dogs. And I too, and a bad neighbor. :p

I am really debating about ordering it. I have a dd6 is in 1st grade, doing mostly 2nd grade stuff. She loves to write fairy tales or fables. The word plagarism comes to mind when I read them :D but I know that's the way it is suppose to be right now. As far as dictation goes, the child is an air head of the inth degree. She reminds me of the absent minded professor...losing his glasses that are perched on his head. <sigh>
I liked the samples that I saw. Is the lesson from the workbook? If not, I'd like to see a lesson from each level workbook. As much as I don't like it, dd LOVES workbooks. IT is nice though, with a 3 yr old running amok.

Just one other thought. Is dd getting physical exercise each day?

We have an inkjet for color copies and a laser printer. The toner costs more for the laser (last one was $60 from amazon) but it lasts a whole school year, almost! The color inkjet is about $45 for a color cartridge and 25 for black. The other thing I like about laser is that it doens't run if it gets wet. I do make most of my copies on draft or fast mode. My laser is a multi-function HP. We have purchased refurb and off brand cartridges and not had good luck with them.
I copy all my workborks that allow me to, so that dd2 can use them too. In the end, it's cheaper than buying 2 of everything. The laser is B&W only, but it's GREAT!!!!

I'm in Cincinnati (east side) and I will tell you there are a BUNCH of support groups and co-ops around here. The laws, right now, are fairly easy. I send a letter to the district in the summer; a very brief letter, and we get a certified teacher to write a note saying that she is performing at or above grade level and submit that somewhere (I havne't actually submitted one of those yet--first time this year). So far, it's very simple. *I* keep an attendance sheet and every month I file one page from each subject into a binder just in case. No one has ever said we have to.
hth, Cindy

I finally picked a vocab program for dd. I went to the website from where I got the catalog, and my brain is dizzy. Wordly (or WORLDY, as I usually type it) Wise, Wordly Wise 3000 or Wordly Wise 3000 2nd Edition. And they are all numbered or lettered differently. Is this some kind of test for homeschool moms or what? Is there a secret I should know??????
After about 20 minutes of looking at the covers, comparing and taking detailed notes on the one I wanted, I finally meandered over to Ebay and bought 2nd AND 3rd grade. VERY cheap. I really dont' want to relive this brain strain for a while.:rolleyes:

I was born with a toy in my hand. The first pictures we have of her, she has a toy in her hand. I thought that was SOOOO cute :) My 6 yr old dd agreed with her. I'm thinking we probably should talk soon, but I really prefer the joy of innocence, ya' know?!

I tend to not wear them around the house also. I have 2 daughters so it's really not a problem. If I feel the need to wear one around the house, I wear a cheap sports bra. Cheap, becuase they don't constrict much :D Their motion rating is low so they are comfortable and I can still breath and move about.
-
Homeschooling is really getting in the way of my reading!!! I've developed a great list (for me, anyway) and plan to read through it. But I've had to come to grips with the fact that I may not finish them all by the end of the year. So far, I've finished 4 or 5 and I will continue to work on it. I've been reading some other books too, but I will finish those books, someday!

It has been a bad week here. Monday mornign I gave the kids cold medicine and thought THAT was what was causing their behavior problems. I don't THINK it stays in their system 4 days, but if it snows and I can't get them to gramma's house tomorrow, I will probably be on the evening news.

I got sent to the principal's office in 5th grade. It was the gym teacher who sent me. He didn't like my attitude.:D We were running one of those LONG runs and he said c'mon Cindy, beat your old time. I, being the budding academic that I was, said 'who cares' and ended up in the office. Now, I'm just a chubby academic who still thinks the office was a little overboard.

Watching O'Reilly Factor adn playing on my computer. Um, a 3 yr old streaker just ran through the room. How's that for excitement?
Does this sound like endometriosis?

Ditto what Stacey said. I had lesions in the area behind my uterus and my main symptom was severe back pain. Again, there is no cure, but I am on the pill with no breaks to treat mine. Stopping the hormonal fluctuations alleviates the growth of the endometrial tissue.
