I placed my order!

Posted in homeschooling

I stayed up WAYYYYYYY to late last night, but I made some decisions about our homeschool curriculum.  Just a reminder.....I have 7 dc ages 9months, 3,5,6,10,13,and 15.  I have the hardest time sticking with any curriculum.  We travel to many homeschool conferences with my husband's job....and I see to many options.  Anyways,I have finally decided to give My Father's World a try.  I ordered their K and ECC (Exploring Countries and Cultures).  I might do their highschool stuff too for my two oldest.  I don't need the stuff until fall....but I wanted to order it before the tax return money disappeared!  I am so excited.  I can't wait to use it!  This year we used ACE paces.  Now before you groan.....they really were a blessing this year.  With a new baby and all.....I just really needed a year where the dc didn't need much help from me.  And it worked for most of them.  In fact, the older two would rather keep doing the PACES.  BUT I don't think that they are learning much on the higher thinking/reasoning end of things.  So....I am hoping to work on that next year!  

My brilliant little 6 year old finished his 2nd grade math PACES last week and has been begging for more math.  I ordered Singapore math for him last night.  We will give it a try!

Well....off to bed.  I have been sick for 33 days now!  This cough and sinus junk just won't go away.  I think it is lack of sleep!

Check back soon.  Tomorrow I will announce the winner of my book!

I use My Fathers World and love it. We used MFW-K last year and this year we are doing MFW-1st grade. I hope you love it too. I don't know if you know or not, but there are yahoo groups that you can join and ask questions. They can be very helpful.
