Jan. 7, 2009 - Product Review -- Update: Times Tales

Now that I have more time, I am adding these personal anecdotes to my Times Tales review. Day One: My daughter (age 10) hated Times Tales, thought it was for babies, cried, pouted, and resisted each step of the way! Day Two: My same daughter flew through the flashcards at significantly improved speed without one whining session. When we had gone through the flashcard one time; I said to her "Wow! You are doing these a lot faster today, what made the difference?" Her reply? "I don't know Mom, I just look at the card and the whole picture of the story just pops into my mind and I know the answer -- it's all right there." Day Three: Rapid-fire procession through the flashcards with the story pictures, plus decent speed on the reverse side without the story pictures. (just numbers instead of numbers embedded in pictures...) Continued Progress: Increased speed and transition to no dependence on the story pictures!

This is how Times Tales works! This is right brain learning at its finest!

About Me

The bottom line is; We try not to insist on parent-led learning or gravitate toward child-led learning. We try instead to focus on God-led learning and ask for His input and perspective on every aspect of our home school. That way, when others fuss about what Dan and I are doing and make me second guess our decisions -- I can go back to our decision process and find God's fingerprints, reminding me that this is His way.
