An annoying aspect of a CM education! ;)

Post by lmercon » Sun May 04, 2014 3:10 pm

My 12 yo ds is severely dyslexic, so I have to read all of the material to him. He's used to this as we've always had to learn this way. We are using Res.to Rev. this year. While I'm reading, he is CONSTANTLY interrupting me with "enlightened thoughts," connections to other books we've read or concepts we've studied in the past, and questions that pop into his mind! The nerve!

As annoying as it actually is some days, I'm sometimes floored that a jr. high aged boy is so engaged and involved in his learning that he feels the need to interrupt me numerous times during the day! I mean, aren't they supposed to be bored in school! It's just not normal! ;)
Wife to a great guy and mommy to:
Ds(15) - using WG and loving it!
Dd(11) - using Res.to Ref and having a blast!
Ds (3) - our joy!

Awesome! It might be fun to record your sessions, and then later go back and listen to them when he is older...much older. Very cool!
