  4. I am sending you a very long list of books about the countries/missionaries around the world. Some of the books are no longer published (00P), and you will have to search used/rare book collections to find them. Most of them are worth it! Some of the book you see repeatedly are collections of missionary stories put together for people to enjoy. The ones by Christian publishers are out of print, but I found many of them online (I think the Alliance Church put these out). They are called the Junior Jaffrays series and may be found under that name. I have done a lot of research to find these books. If you've read down to the bottom, you will find publisher names, which I hope are up to date. It has been a while since I've done this research, but I'm sure you could Google the companies . I have also included a couple of publishers whose web sites you can check out for more selection- I.E. Voice of the Martyrs (they have a large selection of absolutely wonderful books).

  5. to a site or list which will help 4th-6th grader do a critique on a book?
  6. my ds enjoys scrapbooking, making cards and gifts from that sticky peel-off foam which adheres to the larger sheets. They're so bright & colorful! Musical instruments are a fun gift, too! keyboard, harmonica, recorder, guitar
  7. i was just perusing sonlights's website, looking at their math programs. ds (gr.7) is having difficulty w/ his MUS epsilon and i was looking at setting him back a year, perhaps in horizons 6. SL has horizons 6 recommended for grades 6, 7, & 8. What is your opinion here? Is there something better? I'm also considering TT6, as the "independence" may be a helping factor(sometimes mom can be too close). I'm at a loss here!
  8. The Pathway Readers. I warm up just thinking about them.:001_smile:
  9. wonderful books written at the turn of the century or earlier. The vocab (most of it) can be deciphered in context, discussed or checked in a dictionary if necessary and the result is a child with an advanced vocabulary. Horatio Alger, Oliver Optic, G.A. Hentyare a few authors which come to mind. Other neat titles may be purchased from Lamplighter books, Mantle Ministries, Vision Forum and other resources.
  10. Learning grammar w/ my kids has helped us all to speak more intelligently! : )
  11. DS (12) cannot figure out which operation to use when tackling word problems. My MUS rep suggested trying Critical Thinking Press's story problem books- to no avail as they were even MORE confusing to him(and me!) Any ideas? Thanks!
  12. It had Millions of Dead Things, God's the Author of Creation, It's Designed to Do, The Hands That Created the World..etc We lost ours and would like to replace it with the same one. Please pm me if you're willing to part with yours. Thanks!
  13. Life of Fred comes with a month warantee- returns by paypal! I started ours last week and experiencing wonderful results, fewer headaches and a happier kiddo! We're currently only supplementing with QMM, strenghtening basic facts!
  14. Does anyone know of any programs which teach one how to read music?DS has some experience with piano, however he tends to play by ear and has forgotten how to read much of what he learned in his year and a half of lessons. We have too many out trips already, so I wanted to do in the convenience of home. DS is 12 years old, but I prefer to go with a slightly younger program than older. Thanks!
