Dd8 works very slowly in math/summer and CLE

[Tiramisu]

She takes so long because she's VERY distractable. I see this tendency with other work, but not so much as in math.

 

We are using CLE. I love it and don't want to change, but it gets discouraging when I have to keep bringing her attention back, and it goes on and on and on...

 

Next problem...We are in light unit 405, but I think we both need to take a break from the regular math routine for the summer. If she were in 310 or 410, I wouldn't worry so much because the first light unit of the next level is review. But here we are in the middle of a level. Any suggestions as to how to stay on track and help her not forget everything before September?

 

Thanks for any advice or encouragement!:001_smile:

That means you would probably complete 1-1.5 lessons/wk.

 

We stopped at 609 and will do 610 in Sept. then skip 701 (review LU).

Here's an idea for fun math to use over the summer:

My daughter is halfway through lightunit 204. I am having her do one lesson a week over the summer.

Thanks for the suggestions. I thought it might be helpful to have a change of pace from CLE over the summer, but I think the one page a day, one lesson idea might be the best approach. There are a lot of threads moving through the CLE lessons and it is probably best to keep on top of them.

 

Thanks again!
