I have a daughter who will be a Sophomore next year and she is obsessed with Broadway Musicals. Does anybody know of a course she could get credit for studying musicals? I would love to create something but I don’t have a clue how to make a high school course.

We are traveling to Branson for a week in February and I would love some suggestions on things to do/see! There will be 6 kids ages 2-15. Thanks!
-
Has anybody used this book as their L.A. curriculum and supplemented the chapters to last a full year? If so, any suggestions for supplementing? My dd is going into 6th grade. Thanks!

Someone gave me the Zang multiplication card game but it didn't have instructions and I have looked all over on line and can't find how to play. Anybody know and willing to share?

It didn't work for my oldest but it worked great for my youngest!

Yes! Thank you!!

This is not the one but it looks really good too! Thank you:)

I read on a blog about an animated series on Prime or NetfliX about a family in WW2. I thought I saved it to my watch list but I didn't and now I can't find it. The only thing I remember was the cover had kids holding hands walking. Does anybody know what it is? I know that is not a lot to go on but that's all I can remember. Thanks!

I feel like I have tried every science available with my 11 yr old dd. She has not enjoyed any of them! She loves the show Good Eats so I was thinking about coming up with something based off the show. Maybe she could watch one show a week and do some sort of informal write up about the episode or I could make a simple sheet to fill out for each episode and at the end of the month she picks one show she watched and tries to create that food and maybe does a more formal write up of what she learned. I would love any feedback or ideas!

My girls love Little Travelers on Amazon Prime.

Inside Out and Back Again and the 3rd Harry Potter. Both were huge hits. We just started Heidi a week ago and the jury is still out on that one.

I want to make quite a few changes in how we are doing school. I have a dd in 4th and one in 1st and I really want to let go of most of our curriculum and try unschooling. I figure if it doesn't work out we can always go back to what we were doing for 5th and 2nd grade, right? My 4th grader Is so smart and would read all day if you let her but she really struggles with writing and spelling so it is really hard for me to give those up formally but at the same time what we are doing doesn't really seem to be working so why do I feel the need to hold onto it. Oh well, we shall see.

Public schools here start back the last week of August so we always use that week to go to the museum and pool b/c it is not crowded at all! We always start back on the Sept. 1st so my DH can be a part of school that day since he is home from work.

I am going to do Living Math instead of a set curriculum with my upcoming first grader and I am trying to decide what book would be better..Kitchen Table Math or Games for Math by Peggy Kaye? Or do we need both? I already own the Right Start games so I wasn't sure if the Games for Math would be redundant. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I just started reading You Can Teach Your Child Successfully so I would love to discuss once a read a little bit more of it!!

I met DH when I was 15 and he was 19. We got married when I was 18, just 1 month after I graduated high school. We waited 10 years to have kids because we decided to go to college and travel. Now we have 2 girls and we are getting ready to celebrate our 20th anniversary:)
-
It would have made me uneasy as well because several years ago I had that happen to me. I wasn't with my child but I was with a friend. It wasn't crowded and there were plenty of seats but this man chose to sit right beside me. Lets just say before the previews were over he pulled out his "friend" to watch the movie. I could not get out of my seat fast enough!!! I agree with pp...listen to your gut!
-
Thanks for mentioning this!!! I checked and my library offers it as well. I had no idea:)

My favorite game for a group is catch phrase. It is always a hit!!
-
We have really enjoyed it. We only do it on Fridays and most of the time we do it in our bonus room because that is where we have the most space. I like it because I can do it with them and count it for my workout and they love it because they view it as us playing together. I was worried it would not get used but they hold me accountable every Friday:)
-
DH and I exchange cards and we do a nice family dinner with the girls. This year we are doing cheese and chocolate fondue. Dh also makes us a special breakfast and he gives the girls a small box of candy and me a little gift. We go around the table and take turns telling each other different things we love about each other......yeah we are big dorks:)

There will be 2 adults and 2 kids, 9 and 6. Thanks for the info. so far!
