  1. I have the same concern, and I haven't figured out the right answer so :bigear:.
  2. We pass the sign for this state park when we visit my mom, but I had N.O. idea the street name. Too funny!! :lol::lol:
  3. I scored 81.82%. I must say I only passed because of homeschooling. Homeschooling littles, at that. I imagine I will learn more when the pipsqueaks start high school. :D
  4. Will you teach me the mystery of history? :lol: These are great!
  5. I voted something else because we use 4 different programs. My sn 9ds uses McRuffy, my sn 13dd uses MUS, my 9ds uses (and future babes will use) CLE with CWP to supplement.
  6. We use CLE and CWP together. I feel my kiddo is getting the best of both worlds, so to speak. CLE is concrete and challenging. CWP really makes him use his brain, to think outside the box. Whatever you decide, good luck. I am finishing up my 5th year, and I am just now becoming confident that I have chosen the "right" curricula for each of my children.
  7. :iagree: I think they compliment each other and both are important to me. However, I find the OT extremely upsetting here and there so I don't normally read it. In the NT, I love reading Jesus' words. I try to imagine myself there, listening. :)
  8. We have a wooden potato/onion holder. The tators go in a covered bin, and the onions go in a drawer on the bottom. It sits on the floor. I like it and my produce rarely goes bad.
  9. We love homemade lara bars. I can't believe how sweet they are, and they definitly satisfy my out-of-control sweet tooth. :D 4oz box of pitted dates 1/2 teas vanilla 1/2 cup coconut scant 1/8 teas salt 2 T dark chocolate chips Put it all in a food processer for about 3 minutes. Shape into bars and throw into fridge. My friend makes these with no chocolate and loves them. You can also adjust coconut based on preference.
  10. My dd13 has mild CP with moderate brain damage. Mostly we just go r.e.a.l. slow, and she works below "grade level". We keep it basic, no frills. My ds9 has Down syndrome. We use McRuffy K for math. We used 100EZ lessons for reading until he couldn't do it anymore, and we have just recently switched over to CLE's Learn to Read. We practice handwriting every day. We also hired a part-time tutor this semester to give me a break. I also have 3 "typical" kids...9,3, and almost 2.
  11. I don't have personal experience with this, but my 9 year old's tutor is an ASL interpreter for the public schools. She says she really likes Touch Math. Her students respond favorably to it, due to the multi sensory approach. Sorry I don't have more for you.
  12. Oh gee. duh. I must be overthinking it. LOL Thank you so much!!
  13. Please help. I can figure this problem out with algebra, but have been lost ALL day trying to figure it out with bars to show my son. (feeling dumb) Laval is 18 years older than Chris. How old will Chris be when Laval is three times as old as Chris? Algebra: L= C+18 and L=3C subtract and divide and I know Chris is 9. But how in the world do I draw that out? TIA!!
