  1. My almost 7 yr old uses Shurley English (just grammar part), winning with writing, BJU spelling. My Ds really hates writing but really he really likes winning with writing.
  2. My Ds really loves winning with writing. It's cheap and easy to use.
  3. I do not keep any school worksheets or writings. I do keep some art stuff but I do not consider that school stuff. My kids draw multiple pictures a day so I always keep a couple from the week. I personally keep things that will bring back fun memories for the kids like their drawings, little craft projects, etc. I honestly don't think my kids would care about seeing worksheets they did as 6yrs old years from now but I do think they would enjoy their little art & craft projects , which I would keep even if we didn't homeschool.
  4. I do Heart of Dakota little hands to heaven with my almost 3yr old when she asks for school stuff. It takes bout 20 min and she loves it.
  5. Our 1st grade schedule looks like this: Math - 45 minutes Reading (done with phonics) - 20 min. Spelling - 10 min. Writing - 10 min Handwriting - 10 min Science - 20 min History - 20 min. Grammar - 15 min.
  6. We do because my kids love history. My 6yr retains it very well but he loves history. Ds gets upset if we don't do history everyday!
  7. Yes I am in the us. I am going to uninstall the app then install it again to see if it will work.
  8. Not working for me :( it asks of I am sure I want to buy the unit for $6.99. Do I click yes and then it will tell me I already own it? I just don't want to be charged for it.
  9. My 5yr old has speech problems. She messes up a lot if sounds. She can hear the difference just not say it. She is doing great with learning phonics. I think if I waited till her speech was intelligible 100% of the time she would be ten before she learned to read. My daughter is probably bout 50% intelligible right now but for some reason she speaks so much better when she is reading out loud from a book.
  10. I downloaded it but only the first unit is free. You have to pay for the rest of the units which are $6.99 each and there are 12 units.
  11. Every subject. We school yr round and do not take long breaks.

    I think we may start Winning With Writing lvl 1 in the fall. It really depends on how well she is doing with penmanship though.
  13. My Ds does math, spelling, history, science, grammar, writing, handwriting, and reading. He asks to do everything every day. Art is once a wk or so.

    My 5yr old is in the middle of her K year. So far it is going great. She is making great progress with handwriting and reading. I would like to add in some more fun stuff but not exactly sure what to add. She is using horizons k math, Abeka phonics and BJU handwriting.
  15. My 5.5yr od DD just started K. She is using CLE math, Abeka Phonics, BJU handwriting and library books for science and social studies/history.
  16. Most likely we will just continue everything we are doing now but skip the writing sections in Shurley and add in Winning with writing. Math: CLE 300 English: Shurley 3 Handwriting: Abeka Cursive 2 Spelling: Spelling Workout C Science: Abeka 4 History: Abeka 4 Writing: Winning with Writing 2 Reading: BJU 4 Bible: Lifepac 2 He will also be in Boy Scouts and we might add in some type of elective like art.
  17. Sounds like my son who has been diagnosed with sensory processing disorder.
  18. DS1 will start abeka cursive 1, a new spelling program ( building spelling skills), Shurley English 2 and WWE 2 in Jan.
  19. DS just turned 6 and is about a yr accelerated in most subjects. He gets a 20 min. break after we do 3 or so things. Math: 20-45 minutes, depending on how much he daydreams English: 10-15 minutes WWE: 5-10 minutes Phonics: 10 minutes History: 20-30 minutes Science: 20-30 minutes Spelling: 10 minutes Cursive: 10 minutes
  20. I love Nathanial and Nicholas! Some suggestions: Benjamin Jeremiah Matthew William Anthony Christopher Samuel Thomas Charles
