I'm having a hard time here. LOL A looooong time ago (a year + ago?) , you mentioned that at this stage, the students will be alot more independent, self-run kinda thing... is that the plan for this guide, or is it teacher directed/led? I need to figure out things and with multiple students, this is...

Wait a minute! Where'd the spelling lists go in Preparing??? I have been studying this book for weeks. LOL TODAY we started, and I just realized there's no spelling lists???? I dont know where my brain was, but it never clicked. I DID try to do a search, but all my searches said too many common word...

would homemade playdough recipe type thing work?

Or do we need clay????

Hope this is OK to post, I thought all of us could use some bargains!!... Just an FYI-- Target has the crayola watercolor paint sets for 50 cents each Staples has sales weekly, many things are 1 cent, some 25 cents-- this week, mechanical pencils are 25cents a package-- my kids LOVE Mechanical penci...

I got my way-- I get to keep homeschooling, and am able to keep another one of my kids home for this school year!! WOOHOO (3rd child will be public schooled-- and I'm working on getting that kid home too!!) This was a big deal. IT took alot of nagging, prayer, nagging, prayer, LOL!!! The only thing ...

It's part of the program but not REQUIRED. Honestly, (please dont bash me for this) this year (Bigger) we didn't do it. However, now that I have some experience, and know more, we do plan on doing it with all my children for the next year. I had it in my head that since my son has problems with memo...

I dont know aobut the older daughter, but we just finished Rod and Staff 2 and LOVED IT! It was perfect for my son!

Yes, I've done that too!

Glad I'm not the only one! HAHA

Ok... that makes ALOT of sense! I handed them the paper and said "do your best!" LOL I thought that's what I'm supposed to do. OOPS And, yes-- they are coming into singapore, not from the beginning-- which also explains alot. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain it all to me. Now, get off t...

Has anyone else been frustrated with singapores placement testing? So far, it's been inaccurate with 3 out of 3 kids. grrrrrrrrrrr Also, am I the only person who feels singapore just assumes you will memorize multiplication before doing their sheets? It goes (in 2A and 2B) from teaching you how to m...

Yep, I spent wayyy too much money. Then came home, got online and spent MORE money! (evil giggle)

Did anyone else go?

It was my first - ever Homeschool fiar, I had SOOOO MUCH FUN!

Carrie, we loved your booth, loved meeting you, and thanks for your help!

I've already mailed in my registration $$$ for the Arlington, tx fair. even though I have alot of the books for Preparing-- only a few left to find. If I cant find them gently used before the homeschool, I'll buy them then.

Can't wait!

WOOHOO!!!

Thanks!

Is this a consumable book? Just decided to put 2 kids in Preparing, figuring out what I need duplicate copies of. Obviously, I will buy duplicate copies of the math books, cursive (1 kid will be doing cursive)... trying to figure out what else I'd need. I have the R&S English books already (WOOHOO!)...
