Friday’s photos… I made a new bathroom curtain. Ruby apparently thought it needed a little something extra… like her new black hair bow at the bottom. Ellie’s back in the snack cupboard again. Pierce is forever bringing me yogurt… Because he wants to lick the lid. He, without fail, also brings me a baby spoon. […]
TOS Review: Heirloom Audio Productions
For the second time, I’ve been privileged to be chosen as part of a review for the Crew for Heirloom Audio Productions. This time, we received the 2-CD production With Lee in Virginia and accompanying download link for a great study guide. When Heirloom Audio came up for review again this year, after having reviewed […]
TOS Review: UnLock Math
The Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew recently had the opportunity to review the online course UnLock Pre-Algebra from UnLock Math. I asked to review this with Liberty, who will be in 7th grade this fall. UnLock Math’s Pre-Algebra is for 7th grade, and since Liberty is signed up to do a Pre-Algebra course at co-op […]
School.
My children are intelligent. The biggest learning disability we struggle with around here is the wiggles. I’ve been blessed – I don’t fight to teach them things. (Okay, I’m failing in teaching them to consistently clean up after themselves and to shut the basement door until it latches. But… little things.) I have, as a […]
TOS Review: SimplyFun
When I first read of Shape Whiz from SimplyFun, I was pretty excited at the prospect. Playing a game while learning geometry sounded pretty fabulous. When I was chosen for the review, I couldn’t wait to get my game to try. I’ve yet to meet a dull learning game – in my experience, educational game creators tend […]
TOS Review: Home School in the Woods
Home School in the Woods offers a selection of hands-on history unit studies for a variety of ages. When a review for one of their studies was offered for review, I was pretty excited. History this summer was my plan, so I excitedly chose Project Passport World History Study: Renaissance & Reformation as my first […]
Friday’s photo[s] 7/17/15
It’s been a long week. It’s hot. 90° inside the house without a/c and 3 months pregnant is miserable. Apparently, someone wanted to make me feel better. I found this in my flower (and rock) garden: Someone got the memo that my much coveted rose bush didn’t survive the winter, I think. Monday, we start […]
Water Babies
Swimming all evening is exhausting work. Pierce, though, thinks he can swim as well without his life jacket as he can with it. He propelled himself in the 8 foot deep end, didn’t resurface, and had to be rescued in a terrifying moment. He didn’t even take it water, sputter, or act like it was […]
School: dress rehearsal
Yesterday, we jumped in with school plans. I swore after last year’s first day of school, we’d have a run through the Friday before we started. We’d get books out, them put them back, label notebooks, check pencil and crayon stashes, make appropriate copies, and be ready come Monday. We found out Sterling’s math book […]
