Weekly Wrap-Up ~ Dawson Says {about Week 1}

By

Hey, this is Dawson. I'm not sure what to say. My mom's just making me do this every Friday. I don't even know what to put on here! :(. Okay, she wants me to talk about my week. So, this week I got to go to Stone Canyon Elementary to be a teacher's helper for my old kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Morris. There wasn't any work for me to do so I played with LEGOS. :D. Another thing we did was go to Philbrook Art Museum yesterday for a scavenger hunt and to listen to some lady talk. The bad thing about home schooling is that I don't get to see my girlfriend Tess. I only get to see her on the weekends SOMETIMES, so that really STINKS. A good thing about home schooling is I'm the most popular kid in my school / house. Well, I feel like a Hot Pocket so I'm logging off.


Sincerely, (whatever that means)
Dawson :)


PS: I've never typed this much in my life.

    Isn't it nice that you can go get that Hot Pocket when you're hungry and not have to wait? =o)

CTC Math {Schoolhouse Review}

By
We found our groove with math this year. I found a curriculum that both of the kids respond well to and seem to enjoy (as much as one can enjoy math). We have spent the whole year learning the ins and outs of multiplication and were just a few lessons away from being ready to move onto the next year-long level on division. And then an opportunity to review the 12 Month Family Plan from  CTC Math became available. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic. I mean, why mess with the methods that have worked so well? When I was chosen to review the product I didn't go into it with the level of enthusiasm that it deserved. We have been using a dvd/workbook curriculum with great success. The 12 Month Family Plan from CTC Math is a web based curriculum. As we have not had a lot of luck with those types of programs, I went into this review with a negative attitude. And then my socks were knocked off by how great it is. In fact it is so great that we are going to continue to ...

Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt (Schoolhouse Review)

By
For the past several weeks we have been reviewing Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament and Ancient Egypt Flashcards  from Veritas Press . As we were entering into our more easy-going summer schedule, and had just concluded a two-year Old Testament Bible course, I was happy to try out this product as it appeared to be something that Eli and Brynne could do together, alone, and would act as a review of the Old Testament presented in a different way. And I was right. Each Veritas Press Self-Paced History program includes 160 lessons teaching about 32 events in history. They are designed for children in grades 2-6, and it is recommended that the student be a minimum of 7 years of age at the time of the first lesson. What We Received We received a full one-year subscription, for one child, to the online Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt program and the accompanying Old Testament and Ancien...
