Re: I just realized
Each guide is set up to take a year. Yet often people start off a guide half speed before jumping into it full speed.

Re: Math Facts
We have used a free computer program called xtra math. It does one set of math facts at a time ( addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division) and asks questions until they learn them. It keeps track of what they have mastered and what they need to learn. My seven year old only has the zero an...

Re: HOD Beyond LHTH
