MamaSprout Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) My college kiddo just kinda thanked me for making her do proofs. I’m pretty sure Geometry aged me 6 years… So “yay” for getting through the hard stuff when no one wanted to do it. :0) Edited March 20 by MamaSprout 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rzberrymom Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 My college kiddo has also thanked me several time for making her do AOPS. Says she can always reason backwards and figure out whatever math is in front of her. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likaly Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Thanks for the encouragement! And thanks for sharing your homeschooling path. I am reading your posts/replies since the beginning, every day at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says she can always reason backwards and figure out whatever math is in front of her. We didn't use AoPS as much as imacs/EMF. Dd told me later that she wished we had done more of the EMF/imacs. I told her the computer wasn't up to more of her banging her head against it. 👀 (Geometry was just a textbook. Larson, I think). We always sort of had two math threads going at a time. Regular Math and Fun Math. Sometimes more of one than the other. Pretty sure nothing about The Geometry Year was fun, though.

Most of us have "what we would do differently" advice. ETA. I just looked at some of my old posts. Oy. Dd has some eye tracking issues that were clearly a problem from the beginning. It would have saved us both some grief if I had pushed harder with the eye docs back then. Edited March 21 by MamaSprout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaSprout Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 (edited) Also... Dd has "found" a couple of homeschoolers at college by the AoPS Calc books they had on their desk. I said, "They brought them with them to college?!" Edited March 21 by MamaSprout I'm goofy. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 I also think AoPS was the single best thing we did in our homeschool given my son’s choice of major. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
