Thanks for the heads-up! We are only going into week 30 this coming week, but it's good to know.

Oh how I wish we were closer. We really liked that book and I would love to hear her speak. I also didn't realize she was still living. I Googled her information to see how old she was, and as of December 2013, I think it said she was 79. So, she's either 79-80 now and looks younger (from her photo...

We loved that book so much that my husband surprised me with her autobiography. I wish we were closer. Thank you for posting. I think MTMM has been my favorite year of read alouds, but maybe I say that every year. :) Melissa, that is so cool! I think she is introducing a new movie they are making a...

Heather, would you pm me the information, please?

Yes! I just sent you a PM. Let me know if you got it ok!

Anita Dittman (Holocaust survivor from the MTMM "Storytime" book In the Shadow of His Hand ), is scheduled to speak at "Understanding the Times" conference in Eden Prairie, MN on April 26, 2014!! It's a free conference at Grace Church there. Just Google for more information, since I don't think we a...

Thanks, Lynn!! That's what I was thinking, but didn't want to miss anything.

Hi,

We are on Week 28 of MTMM, and Day 2 has a note in "Worthy Words" for the parent to read aloud "Box 8" before the discussion. But, there is nothing in the Student Notebook for Box 8 for this week. (It is a blank box.)

Please help!! Thanks!!

Wow, that is just so heartbreaking!! Praying for them!!!!!

(((((Carrie and Julie and Families))))) So sorry for your loss, and praying for you!! Some words that really comforted me when a pastor spoke to us at my father-in-law's funeral (over 20 years ago already, but I still remember). He reminded us that it may be a long good-bye, but (as Christians) it i...

Thanks for the heads-up! We plan to start MTMM on Monday!

We've always gone out to breakfast, and then we come home and take pictures with all the year's curriculum around her!

My ds was also that way too starting at the end of grade 2 (he was already 8 almost 9 by then). I was so disappointed since I had always worked hard to make school enjoyable for him, and he loved it before that age/grade! There were things he still enjoyed (like history), but I believe it was the l...

Sounds great!!

If it helps at all, I am currently taking college classes myself, and I think our Anatomy and Physiology teacher would take off 1 point for every 4 misspellings. (I don't have too many troubles with spelling, so I'm not 100% sure, but it was something similar to this.) Our Microbiology instructor di...

I love it, Lynn!! Your blog is so helpful in inspiring and encouraging those of us who are doing HOD along with you! :) I like your ideas for narrations and typing some of it out. I may have to try that this year, since our dd is "allergic" to pen-and-paper writing, LOL! (But, she doesn't mind typin...
