Re: New Math Reccomendation after Singapore 6A/6B

I am looking over math options for my DD. She is using Singapore 5B currently, and halfway through RTR. (She starts a new year every January, well thats the goal). She is 12 and we consider her just starting 6th grade this fall. So my question is, should we use Singapore 6A/6B next year in RevtoRev?...

First she traces the shape of the box onto the paper & cuts it out. Then writes her narration then glues ir in thr student notebook. This may help your ...

Re: Yet another written narration question (CTC)

My DD cuts lined paper to fit the box. She writes straighter with the lines. Then if she needs more room she writes on the back leaving a inch or so at the top to glue it in place.

Student Notebooking Pages - writing utinsel?

We are just starting CTC!! I'm curious if pencil or a certain type pen is better on the paper in the student notebook pages? My DD does not have neat handwriting and I'm kinda worried about her printing in these boxes! Thanks!

Preparing Unit 34 Day 3 History Project

The History Project for Preparing Unit 34 day 3 is to look at thinkquest.org about Pearl Harbor. This website is no longer available. Also for the independent history there was a wikipedia map that has since been deleted. Does anybody have a link to something else to use instead? Thanks.

Re: Dictionary for Bigger

My dd uses it well and it had almost all the words we needed in bigger & preparing. If there wasn't a word I would ...

Re: Spelling: I question

My 6 year old does the same thing especially with the words "saw" and "was". I just keep having him correct himself. I guess I assumed he just needs more practice. Although there is learning difficulties on my hubby side of the family (as in his brot can't read). So idk. Otherwise he's doing really ...

Re: Little hearts Unit 23 Science help

Explain that March, April, and may are the months of the spring season in America. Read aloud the description of spring in the second complet...

Little hearts Unit 23 Science help

The directions say to read History Stories for Children page 184 about the spring season. But that page doesn't have it. Does anyone know the correct page? I'm sure its a typo because I bought all my Little Hearts package at the same time. Thanks.

Re: Choosing curriculum for 2 children ages will be 6 and 9

Have you looked at the placement chart? http://www.heartofdakota.com/placing-your-child.php

The usual recommendation is to look at where each kiddo places. And hopefully someone else can help with your more specific questions, I just wanted to be sure you had seen this.
