Re: Workbook question

You could always just buy something at the bookstore, Walmart, $ store, etc. They all have a variety. And most aren't too $$.

Re: Workbook question

If your ds likes them then I'd get more. If he doesn't finish them for school they can be used for fun time. They're inexpensive enough that you're not out a lot of $$ if they aren't used up. I keep those type of workbooks on hand even when we aren't using them for 'school". My kids have always like...

Re: When are you taking off for Christmas?

Our senior takes most of his classes at the high school. They're off the 20th to the 3rd, I think. Our youngest is at home and we'll take off the same time just to make life easier. We also have a few days we'll take off before then for the ballet and a couple parties.

Re: Math Woes-Need Advice

Hello~ I'm new here and this is only my second year with MUS, so consider that. :wink: My 6 y/o is also using MUS Alpha. He does not have the facts down 100%. For his 8s and 9s, he still often uses the blocks. But, he can explain it to me perfectly. For example he might say for 9+8--> 9 comes in and...
