Re: What is Earlybird Kindergarten like?

Hi All, Thank you for all for replying to my question about Earlybird. Mercy, I checked out the math box and I see what you mean, thank you! I'm going to check out their website when I get a chance.

What is Earlybird Kindergarten like?

Hi, Can anyone tell me what Singapore math is really like? I've heard a mix of things, but can anyone give me some more deeper insight into what it's like? For example, is is mostly mental math (from what I understand) or does it use manipulatives? Also, how hard would it be to use manipulatives if ...

Hi All,

I just wanted to thank you for sending me your thoughts and experiences with Little Pilgrims. I think I'll skip the TM and may consider purchasing the coloring book. He sometimes likes to color and it may help keep him in his seat better...LOL! Many thanks to all of you!

History for Little Pilgrims Question

Has anyone purchased the coordinating coloring book and teacher's manual that goes with Little Pilgrims? I read a review where the person strongly suggested purchasing them to go along, but I was wondering if this is even necessary. I haven't actually seen History for Little Pilgrims and the LHFHG t...

Re: Curious

Thank you, Mercy! I really appreciate it. I heard good things about Singapore, as well. BTW, which phonics did you choose, The Reading Lesson, Reading Made Easy, or your own? If you're using one of the first two, how do you like it? BTW, my son will be six end of July. Thanks, again!

Hi there, I'm considering purchasing Little Hearts for His Glory, and I just wanted to get some feedback as to how the curriculum accommodates the use of another phonics and/or math program. I've been successfully using another phonics program and I'm thinking of sticking with it. Although we haven'...
