  1. DS really needs some brushing up on grammar. We have Shurley English, but I feel it is too much parent work for a 5th grader. What else is out there that will help booster his grammar skills and not require me to sit with him for an hour to do one lesson. I dont mind teaching him, but an hour lesson in just one subject while I need to do K with my dd and watch my toddler just is not reasonable here.

  2. Okay, not intending this to be mean or judgmental, but why are you having her write words she can't even read? :confused:

     

     

    because she enjoys it. She has a note book and goes around the house writing down every word she can possibly find.

  3. Thanks so much everyone! She does know how to write and if you tell her what to write she will write it but she doesn't know WHAT she wrote until someone reads it to her. DH isn't fond of the idea of buying even more curriculum. He feels I need to make work what we have. I will figure it out eventually though,lol

  4. I am having the hardest time teaching my dd. She will be 6 in Dec. She knows all the letters and what they say, she can put simple words together (reading and writing them) but when we sit down to do any phonics she freezes and cannot remember anything. I dont understand how to teach the Saxon math that we have and I cannot have her do the K-1 science that we have because it expects her to be able to write properly. I feel like I am failing her.

     

    ODS is so advanced I never thought teaching dd would be this difficult.
