I have to say, we did something like that. When I was pregnant with our daughter we moved in with my parents (2 bedrm cape) we lived in the basement for 1 year while our house was built. Plus I gave birth to my daughter while we were there. She was just fine in a porta crib instead of a regular one. One great thing is checking on the children in the night. I didn't even have to get out of bed. :lol:

Well, I guess that makes my decision. We will order TT THANK YOU

Well, I guess that is a mouth full. Maybe, my ds will enjoy this more. I hate when he asks me a question and I have to look it up or call someone. He is bypassing me

My ds is going into algebra next year. He complains a lot about Saxon but does very well. I have never taken a formal algebra class I could probably meander my way through. I was considering Teaching Textbooks. Are they worth the money. I just don't want to get stuck one day and not be able to help him.

I have a IEP meeting this week. Unfortunately, my husband can not attend the meeting with me. I am sorta lost. I am a child advocate and I am so use to going in with a agenda that we will get. Now, that I hs and I am attending without my balance person (dh) I am so very lost. Any suggestions???? I know I can reschedule but not sure I want to. My husband got called in for training purposes at work. He asked me what days would work and I totally forgot about the IEP meeting. We have to bring our ds to Shiners hospital on Tuesday so everything else just sorta went out the window.

Well, I am glad I asked. I was considering going to Math U See just thinking it may be better. But, I wouldn't want to upset the apple cart. Whew.....Thank you

Is there a way to block someone from you account who is constantly giving you problems?

We are starting Algebra next year. Up until now we have been using Saxon. It is working just fine but I thought it may be time for a change. I was considering using Math U See. Can I get your opinion on Math U See verses Saxon for Algebra?

Thank you good to know. I think maybe your right. He already says he is bored with 8/7 but I don't want to move to fast. I need to buy the next one and was unsure what to get. This has helped out a lot.

Thank you perfect! He si doing 8/7 second edition now. He generally isn't getting anything wrong. But, as far as attention to detail. He is a mover and a grover so maybe we should just go with the 1/2

My son is finishing 8/7 Do I put him in Algebra 1 or Algebra 1/2? I understand that the 1/2 comes first. But, really what do you learn in 1/2 that you aren't getting in one. I need to purchase these and I don't want to bore him. Oh, one more thing, my son is gifted in math. It comes extremely easy for him. He is only 11 so I think he is doing well.

He is learning disabled in reading and he didn't receive any services this year. They are doing budget cuts and they were taking everything away they can. One of the reasons for hsing. But, I feel like I am going to be put on the chopping block. I want to be prepared when I walk into this meeting and not get blindsided. They tend to do that. I am going to look up that state law. Thank you for your input. Any other input you may have would be helpful.

Okay, all you special needs parents, I need help. I have my first IEP meeting with the school Wednesday. I should say our first since hsing. I am a child advocate and I have fought the school hard and always gotten my way. Now, that I am hsing its a different ball game. I don't want to give up my childs IEP because I don't know what the future holds. I want to hs throughout the rest of our education. So, here is my question, "How in the world do I handle this meeting" What do I go for? I guess the fighting is gone..... What do I do?
