Really well-done audio books
trishhoward replied to blondeviolin's topic in General Education Discussion Board
i am actually in search of a series of audio books for my daughter. We are almost finished with a series of unfortunate events. She is almost 8 and she loves the dynamics of the children. i love that there is a constant vocabulary lesson entwined with good wit to the story. the children in the story are all smart in their own ways with a hunger for books. she wants something similar. i want something that continues to encourage her brain to explore new things. Any suggestions. we have also listened to the magic tree house, tale of despereaux , to name a few. -
seek and Find Bible is my favorite for the kids. I even use it to teach childrens church each sunday. it has a picture, summary story, reference passage, bible verse, comprehension questions and further reading. It has done a great job on hitting most of the bible stories that are age appropriate for the 3rd grade and under, I think my helpers have even learned a lot form it.

I love this post. I thought we would have had a space that was in war with our dining habits. It was suppose to be and is still to be, but I realize know. I have no idea when. Glad not to be the only one in my plight. -

Anyone mind sharing what you spend on books in one year
trishhoward replied to julie4's topic in K-8 Curriculum Board
i love all of you that are big spenders. It makes me feel so much better. I have kids in 2nd, 1st and pre-k. I have probably spent about $700 and sadly $300 of it was on reading program that will not work for us and the company will not return it. my husband has plenty to say about the reoccurring amazon charges, so I think I have enough until november and then i will begin purchasing again. HAHAHA! -

Question for 8-10ish girls
trishhoward replied to ----'s topic in General Education Discussion Board
Keep looking there are some really cool ones out there. and just making the lunch look as though care has been taken on it, will always make it look appealing. -

We Choose Virtues - any printables?
trishhoward replied to mommyto4QT's topic in K-8 Curriculum Board
at one time it was free. But I somehow lost the e file. so I have to buy it, too. -
I am living in a house with 2 bedrooms and 4 kids, plus dh and myself. we use our tv the same way. at the moment, I have a 12 by 18 dining room that is also our classroom. for my personality, this is very difficult. My dining room is also the main hallway from one side of the house to another. we are about to add a third bedroom and have decided to make it a classroom for the next year. We haven't told the kids yet, but I think it will be ugly when they hear about it. good luck with figuring out how to work it out in your situation.
