BeckyFL Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I have a friend who is going to be using Konos this year. I was trying to check it out and I am listening to the mentor videos. Wow! Question.... does anyone know if you have to listen to that much every week before you start teaching your kids? I can't imagine finding time for this every weekend.

Rhonda in TX Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I don't recall her ever mentioning watching any videos. Is that something new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyFL Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 honestly I couldn't finish watching. It just went on and on. I think the parent is supposed to watch each week to help them with teaching the week's topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda in TX Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 If people have been doing KONOS for years without them, I doubt they're necessary. There's a very active yahoo group. If you don't get a better answer here, check them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I never used them. Oh, wait--they weren't "invented" back then:D So I guess the answer would be "no." Everything you need to know is right there in that volume of KONOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaik76 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 You can use Konos without listening to the mentor stuff at all! I just have the books and plan out what I want to use. We love it, though we don't use it as our main curriculum. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coffeefreak Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Are you using the online co-op? I use Konos and have never heard of the Mentor tapes? I don't use the online co-op, but I hear it's really great. You can join the yahoo group to get more information. Dorinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
