I'm so excited and so are the kids. Levi finished up his math book today!! The entire thing: 400+ pages since the end of August! I'm so proud of him! He's done a great job w/ it!! The other stuff we have left is easy and will be done by mid-May. I'M SO EXCITED!!! James' reading has really taken off lately! He still struggles w/ some of his sight words, but he's starting to read so much better. He can read full stories now, not just sentences. And he's finally reading & comprehending. He used to spend so much time concentrating on what the words were that he didn't really comprehend what he was reading, but he doesn't do that anymore. We will continue reading throughout the Summer since I feel reading is something that needs to be done all the time, not just during the school year. Next year... Yes, I'm excited to be done, but I'm already focusing on next year. I had planned to use all Bob Jones w/ the boys. However, something made me look into A Beka and the price is SO much cheaper. I can get enough for the boys & Beth for the entire school year for about $500+ less than I could have spent on the Bob Jones for just the boys. So I think I'm going to go w/ A Beka. They come to the area next month. If you go to their curriculum viewing you get a discount & no shipping charges, so that's my plan. Then all the kids will be covered for next school year and I won't have to piece together curriculum. With a busy toddler and a newborn I just won't have the time for that! As it is we'll probably take a few weeks off when the baby is born.... I know I'll need the time to recooperate. |
