  1. Thank you for mentioning this! For the past 6 weeks I have drastically changed ds8's diet and have been astounded at the positive behavioral changes. I recently bought OJ and was having him drink it because he was coming down with a cold and his behavior has become worse. I wouldn't have made the connection to OJ.

  2. If someone is trying to get me to remember somewhere I've been or some specific memory, they can give a zillion details, but until a picture pops into my head I have no recollection. Sadly I have forgotten many childhood memories because I cannot picture them. This is one reason why I love blogging... it saves the memories for me and the pictures more readily stay in my mind. Pictures=memories for me.

  3. I was planning to use Kinetic Books Geometry and Conceptual Physics for my 10th grader this year. Now I find out they don't offer those programs to home schoolers and what I purchased (a one-year license) doesn't have any answers or teacher support. They will refund my money, but I really wanted to use these programs this year.

     

    What am I missing? I heard about Kinetic Books here and am so confused to hear I can't use it as a homeschooler. School starts in 2 weeks!!

  4. I've been using it this year with all my kids, although I just stopped with dd10 because she wasn't understanding any of it.

     

    After a couple months my kids (on their own) began doing an entire week each day, so basically covering 5 sentences a week instead of 1. Even my 2nd grader was doing this voluntarily! So that's another way you can use the program. I'm going to continue with it next year.

     

    There is not much instruction, so I'll sometimes use google if I need help teaching.

  5. After reading this thread I discovered I have Onenote 2010 on my computer, but I've never used it! I used to use Evernote, but it became too complicated or I wasn't using it right. Then I switched to workflowy which I absolutely love! Such a simple concept and I use it everyday. But for things that workflowy isn't good for I think I'll try Onenote. Would love to hear more examples of how people use it in homeschool planning!
