His grace pours like rain...

Feb. 20, 2006

Up late

    Just thought I would stop in and say Hi to everyone!  Our studies are going pretty well.  I was so happy today when Marcus, 12yo, actually came to me and asked me to teach him his math lesson!  Wow!  His older brothers hardly ever come to me for help.  It's great to know that he'll ask when he needs it, instead of just letting it slide.
    CJ is ready to start her pair of pants.  We need to go and buy bottomweight fabric.  She needs it done in time to model during the 4-H Fashion Review in April.
     We finally got the soldering iron and solder for trying some electric projects.  I think the first one will be how to use the soldering iron and solder without getting burnt.  I found a college website that shows exactly what a good solder looks like.  So, we'll go there and take a look then practice trying to make ours look like theirs.
     Well, off to bed!  God bless you and good-night!

I am new to blogging. I was reading your profile and see you are a definite veteran of homeschooling. I was wondering if you could help me out with something. This is my second year homeschooling. My son is 11 and my daughter 13. My daughter seems to be struggling with language arts. I have tried different curriculum and feel frustrated. I know she doesn't like language arts (the whole noun/adverb etc) but is a strong reader. I was wondering what you use and what you do when you feel like nothing is working.
Thanks
God Bless

First, let me say I have been enjoying your blog.
I have only been HSing for 2 years, so I was wondering if I could get some advice from someone with more experience.
I have a 1rst grader & a 2nd grader and I was wondering if there was some way I could work them together without being too advanced for one, or being on too low of a level for the other.
What types of Curriculums do you use, and through the years what have you found to work best, book work or a lot of hands on things?
