  2. I would like to do a unit study to help my kids learn more about the elections process. I have put together an entire pinterest board, but I am expecting a baby in 5 weeks and am ready to just buy something. :) I have looked at the Build Your Library study because I already have two of the three books. However, it's geared toward 8-10 year olds. I have an 8, 12, and 14 that would be doing it. So it would probably require some tweaking on my part. Does anyone have one they have used that worked well for multiple ages? Wasn't too dry? You felt was effective? Please post pros and cons. Thanks
  3. My children have misplaced pg. 18 from our History Odyssey Middle Ages Level 2 please pm me if you are willing to email me a copy. Thanks so much! We just need lessons 15 & 16.
  4. My kids just didn't like the set-up with explanations to questions right underneath. You have to hold a piece of paper over the whole page and slowly slide it down in order to not see the answers. I can see using them as a brush up but not a stand alone text.
  5. Well, most of the time we are working on the material through the summer as we don't take a summer break from math. I happen to have one doing 4 right now, so she'll finish that next month and then we'll see where she needs to be in 5.
  6. I have used this program through 6 with 3 of my dc now. It does begin with a lot of review in the last levels. I have had them finish all of 4 and then test out usually around lesson 30 of the next year and then we go from there. Horizons is such a great program I didn't see the point in just leaving it because of the extra review. It's an advanced program that leaves them very well equipped to start Pre-Algebra/Algebra right after Math 6.
  7. Just trying to get a hold of you about your purchase but your inbox is full.

  8. Hi, I am trying to send a PM but your box is full.

  9. My .02 :001_smile: My older daughter had a hard time finding a good fit with Algebra. She loves Geometry. So, in order to get her through the required maths before testing she is currently working on Algebra II and Geometry concurrently. She does Geometry everyday and Algebra II 3x's a week. For my mathy daughter I plan to follow the Alg. I, Alg. II, Geometry, Trig sequence. She will done with time to spare.
  10. This thread has been so much fun to read! It's amazing what people think of. Just thought I would add some more laughs: I went to school with a girl named Tamalpais Star....., my neighbor growing up was Rhyll and her married name was Sharpe, my parents knew a Bunker Hill, and my husband went to school with a guy named Reefer. The craziest one was a gal my husband did some work for, Flossie Mollhair, apparently her name was Florence but she went by Flossie.:D
  11. No, I don't. I'll look into it. I did order the other practice materials and that appears to be going well. Thanks!
  12. Not sure what this means. Are you a home schooling parent? Just wondering as the only thing on your page is an advertisement.
  13. Here's an interesting article at Slate from several years back. Interesting argument, although I think it led me to more questions than answers! http://www.slate.com/id/2064227/
  14. Actually my personal experience is that this attitude is rampant in home school circles. Most of my friends who ps wouldn't dream of sending a sick child to an activity, school, church, etc. But, my family and I have been repeatedly exposed to illness that run the gamut from a fever to whooping cough by those whom we associate with in the home school community! :tongue_smilie:
  15. Thanks for the responses so far! Just to clarify I am referring to creative writing suggestions, original writing, etc. Thanks!
