The folks from AO emailed me yesterday and asked if I would put a link to their site on my blog. They thanked me first , of course, for mentioning their product in my blog. When I read their message, I wasn't quite sure how I felt about a company asking me to provide free advertising - but then I realized that I had already done it. Hahaha. Truly ~ I do not mind a bit that they contacted me and truly I am most happy to say I LOVE the Switched on Schoolhouse and Lifepac that we are using this year. I will happily include a link to their site on my blog and hope you'll give them a look.
Since I'm sending you to see what they have, I think it is only fair that I should share our experience with their products ~
We are using the History (sixth grade) Lifepac along with the Switched On Schoolhouse computer program. I was not familiar with either program when I purchased them. I purchased the Lifepac first. After looking it over, I wasn't happy with its simplicity. I knew that one pass through a lesson and filling in the blanks would not be enough for my fellas to retain important information. I needed something that would reach out and grab them. SO....I thought I would order a computer history program to see if it would capture their attention a little better. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the SOS History is the EXACT same program as the History Lifepac. We use the Lifepac as a supplement to reinforce the computer program - and so far, the boys are doing a GREAT job.
Maybe AO would consider selling a combination pack. *grin* *hint hint hint* Or maybe they already do, and I just haven't figured it out yet???
From the House of Hooligans ~ Have a happy Wednesday!
