We received A Reason For Handwriting, book F for 13 yo A today. She's wanting to continue to improve her handwriting. She's wanting to learn regular cursive, instead of the italic cursive we taught her first. I've never used A Reason For Handwriting before, so I'm curious to see how she'll do with it. I forgot I had ordered that when I posted yesterday.
I also had forgotten that we bought ARTistic Pursuits K-3 Book one when The Old Schoolhouse Store had it half-price last week. It also arrived today. So, 2 new things today!!
We're still waiting on Tapestry Of Grace Year 3, and Beyond Five In A Row, vol. 2.
And we just found out that the last item for TOS Homeschool Crew will be shipping soon. We'll be receiving Famous Men of Modern Times and First Start French: Book One to review. I chose Famous Men of Modern Times since it will correspond well with our current history studies and Tapestry of Grace. I chose First Start French because the children have wanted to learn French for awhile now.
Being on the TOS Homeschool Crew has been a wonderful blessing this year. Not only because of the curriculum we've received, but also the friends I've made with other Crew members, the lessons I've learned about myself and our homeschool, and the opportunity to develop my writing skills. When they start taking applications for next year's Crew members, I will post that information here. I'll also be posting a journal (of sorts) of my experiences on the Crew at the end of April. As the reviews wind down, I'll start working on the journal of my Crew experience.
