  1. Homeschool friends-would you go to this link on fb and like and comment something sweet about our consignment sale in Cary, NC? We are in the running for top 10 in the nation and the # of likes and comments counts heavily. THANKS! I need like 100 more comments!!! Can your kids with fb accounts do it too? It is the Kids EveryWEAR picture!!! Be sure not to comment on another. Haha!
  2. There is ranking in Alcumus. And if you answer quickly enough in class, your answer gets posted. These things keep ds on his toes and doing a lot of alcumus.
  3. My son LOVES his online AOPS class. He is thriving from the competition mostly. Is there something like that which provides daily reinforcement and competition for grammar or writing? Thanks!
  4. If so, can you review it? How long does it take per day? Did your child love it? Did it provide enough reinforcement for retention? What else have you used that you can compare it to? What age was your child? Are answers provided to the questions? What will you move to next? THANKS!
  5. We are using the IEW Fix-it series and enjoying it.
  6. DS13 used Rightstart Math for K and 1. We loved it, but with 4 kids, I couldn't manage such a teacher-intensive program. I switched him to MM and never looked back. He finished 7a last year and began AOPS prealgebra this year. We LOVE Aops and he was fully prepared with MM. He is definitely above average in his math gifting though. DD was unable to manage MM. So it isn't for everyone. It does not have enough repetition for some kids. My DS11 is in MM5B now and doing great. They do it entirely independently - a huge bonus imo.
  7. Could you review it? How long does each day take? Was it meaty enough? Too much? Grade level equivalency? Comparison to other curricula you have tried? Are there any answers offered to the questions? Will you continue with Beautiful Feet? THANKS!
  8. It will take you just 1 minute. We are neck in neck with another consignment sale. You just go here on facebook and like the picture/post for Kids EveryWEAR on this page: https://www.facebook.com/ConsignmentMommies/photos/a.10153796468513578.1073741835.128886358577/10153796468708578/?type=3&permPage=1 And comment that we are the best. The other sale has 5 more likes than us. It is really silly, but comes down to how many people we ask to like and comment. Yet winning best in nation will make folks choose to shop our sale rather than another. THANKS FRIENDS!
  9. Summer, I can't get a message through to you. You had pm'd me. Can you email me? gail [at] kids every wear [dot] com thx
  10. DS12 is gifted in understanding math. He just finished MM7a and I hope he will take the AOPS pre-alg online class in the fall. His age equivalent in broad math on his year end testing is >30 but his math calculation skill age equiv is 23. No surprise to me as he hasn't used a drill and kill curriculum BUT he needs to build up speed and competency in calculations. So I am having him do the classwork only, odd #'s in Dolciani pre-algebra. He is flying through it, doing 5 lessons a day and getting them correct. What next? Any input? I don't want to kill him with work he comprehends already. I just want to build his speed, accuracy, and calculating skills. Thanks for your input! We heard about Dolciani here and it has been a very inexpensive but helpful resource to cover the basics.
