  4. What worked: almost everything, but I've been most happy with our LA lineup: OPGTR (DD7 is almost finished and I'm so happy with her reading this year; in the fall I'll be starting it all over with DD5), AAS, WWE, and FLL. I've also been pleasantly surprised with the MP 1st grade enrichment and MP Storytime Treasures and More Storytime Treasures. What didn't work: Sassafras science. I can hardly stand to read it aloud, but DD7 likes it, so I will finish out the book. Next year we are switching to Nancy Larson science. Also, Beyond the Code was not DD7's favorite, so we quit after the first book. I think she gets better reading comprehension from the MP Storytime Treasures. What could work, but isn't: nature study. I think we've done five nature walks total this year. It's usually the first thing to go when the day gets busy.

  13. Aquaphor! Our temps don't usually get that low but both DDs are prone to dry skin in winter and Aquaphor works best.
  14. Sorry I did not have time to type more earlier. I pretty much followed a process similar to regentrude's solution.
