On a whim (I think?) I went to my local Christian book store and found a couple of manuals that I was considering for next year, one of them being DITHOR. I had my eight-year-old with me and wanted to get her opinion on them. She decided that she really likes the DITHOR workbook. Her words, "I like that it doesn't have pictures, because those are too distracting." :lol We did a page together, orally, using Madeline, a book she's already read. She did a great job with it, and I felt comfortable explaining it to her, even without the TM. She is really looking forward to using this next year. I really don't know why I keep second-guessing myself on curriculum choices, because my own kid is telling me that she wants this! LOL
