| Spent $10 on a used workbook older than my 20-year-old child. Yes, I did. It's something I never would have chosen online but after having looked at it, I thought it was perfect for our younger children. |
 |
| Simple, simple "daily exercises" actually take longer than you think. But I think Woodjie and Rose are learning quite a bit. |
 |
| Rose and Woodjie were asked to write a couple of sentences. Rose's work took about five minutes. |
 |
| Woodjie took over half an hour on this and by the time he was done, he needed a lot of praise and hugs. It is just very hard work for him. We still remember that he didn't speak for quite some time, so every word and bit of progress is really a little miracle. We'll be doing just a bit of writing a few times a week now. |
 |
| Spelling workbook. I just xerox and go. I could have made my own list of 60 words, but I didn't bother. This workbook is little, but it has plenty of activities and the printing is big and kid-friendly. |
 |
 |
| Woodjie's master list. He gets to star the list after he passes the test. I told him when he is finished with the whole sheet, he will get a BIG PRIZE! Even I don't know what it is yet. :) |
They look like great books! Some of the older ones are better I find because of their simplicity. The kids get to focus on just one or two things at their own pace. None of that rushing through a more complicated curriculum to keep up with the class and the teacher who has to produce "results".
ReplyDeleteI know! But then... I've had kids in public schools. The teachers tend to send all the homework to the parents and make THEM stress about it too. And I'm not gonna. My children will just learn a little each day. :)
