[Just read WTM... I'm sold!!!]

Thank you both so much for your replies! I am so glad to know this method is working for other families. I didn't originally purchase the activity book for SOTW, but after reading it, I sure did!! It should be here tomorrow!! Thanks for the history tips!!

[Just read WTM... I'm sold!!!]

Hello everyone. I just finished reading WTM and I loved it!! So much of it made sense to me and came together. I read a few other books on learning/teaching styles and nearly nodded off while reading them. Not this time!!! I couldn't put it down!! It answered so many of my questions and I am slowly gaining confidence in my ability to educate my kids.

 

We did a very relaxed kindy year in which the only formal work was learning to read and some single digit addition, subtraction, money, and telling time to the half hour. So this year we will be adding in quite a bit of what I've learned from the WTM. I've ordered WWE and SOTW Vol1. Also, I have collected free spelling lists and teaching ideas from the web. I have Math Mammoth and Mr. Q Classical Life Science.

So happy I found this method before we started 1st grade. Looking at my previous curriculum list, its a mess!! Nothing is cohesive and it lacks a purpose. (not to mention more expensive!!)

 

Looking forward to everyones ideas and wisdom here!!
