Re: From MUS to Singapore?

I switched my ds from MUS to Singapore after almost finishing their old program foundations which is pretty much the same as Alpha and Beta. He loved the switch because there was more variety of topics in Singapore. Each week in MUS we would learn a different addition fact and sometimes add in a lit...

Re: I really need help! LHTH or LHFHG?

I just wanted to encourage you about your decision. With my 1st I had to step back his K year because he wasn't quite able to handle reading the longer books. Spending time reading longer picture books helped and after getting use to those he was able after a few months to go back to where we were. ...

Re: So Thankful! And How do you prevent burn out?

I like to start school earlier in the year than some so it gives me wiggle room to take time off whenever I feel like I am going to burn out :)

Re: Need Math Advice for a 5th Grader with not so great atti

My ds isn't a big fan of writing so we went with Teaching Textbook which is all on the computer, but you can purchase the textbook also. He loves doing math now and sometimes will request to do more than 1 lesson.

Re: Bigger or Beyond?

Thanks, I think Beyond might be a nice fit :) I was thinking about maybe having my dd join in with him. She will be almost 6 then. She can write well, reads CVC words well, and will be ready for Singapore 1A in the fall. She has completed pretty much a K program and has listened into almost all of S...
