Online Writing program: ATTUNEUP
Girl Power replied to happycc's topic in Logic Stage & Middle Grade Challenges
Hi! We are secular and the classes have been fine for us. The last class, Webcite, had a couple of short assignment worksheets having to do with looking up Bible verses, which I just had dd skip. It didn't have to be handed in. The vast majority of the class had very little Bible and could easily be skipped. I don't see you having an issue:) We are really enjoying her classes so far! Beck -

We really loved the class. It was very manageable, which is great since it was a brand new skill for us. I love that research and citation was introduced in such a gentle way instead of learning it with a full blown research paper. Dd did very well working mostly independently. I had such a busy week I forgot to enroll her in Forum, so I did just now. I'm really looking forward to this one! Were the assignments posted yet? I hope she doesn't get behind! I'm waiting to hear from Amy. Beck -

That seems like an awful lot of analysis because of an interjection by a six year old. I guess I'm just too relaxed to worry about the long term social consequences of something like this. I think the little girl deserves much, much more slack. Mom said she "politely" interrupted. Kind of made me smile to think about, actually. Beck

I guess I don't see this as "bragging". While I wouldn't want dd to dominate a conversation I was having with other adults, I could see her jumping in with a comment like this. Showing pride in her accomplishments in math is not necessarily a bad thing. I would see if much differently, however, if she chimed in to compare herself to another child who may not have those skills yet. I have reminded dds before to never use their knowledge as a way to feel smarter that someone else, because there is always someone smarter. In your situation though, I see it as your dd wanting to include herself in a conversation and showing pride in her accomplishments, and not so much bragging, and that wouldn't bother me. They have many, many years to learn these kinds of social skills. Beck

HI! We're very happy so far, and I'm thrilled dd is learning useful skills in citation that we have not tackled yet. I like that it's starting out with manageable chunks, then adding citation and polishing using her very useful comments. So far no technical issues with the web class. Dd is working pretty independently at this point. I did help her a bit with her Bible research project, but that's because she's not used to using a concordance. Beck -

Hi, What is the difference between the webinar on Thursdays and the class on Mondays? I'm confused. To Beck -

I'm an idiot. Entirely too gullible. Thanks for the heads up. -

Wow, I just saw it. Explanation from girlfriend asked for. I'd be really upset if she was tricking me.
