Now normally I'm all about Saxon Math. ::smile:: My 2 oldest do very well with it...but my youngest not so much. Horizons didn't work either or MEP (on-line). So, I just got Math-U-See in the mail and we'll see how that goes. Something needs to click!
Oh, and my youngest is using Word Builder from Easy Peasy English. It's a simple way for him to work on his reading with some phonics rules and practice some informal spelling. He's 2/3s through 1st grade. (He's in 2nd, but I thought I would just start him at the beginning.)
Happy 8th! I've got an 8 coming up on Wednesday!
I tell you its so easy to get discouraged when you homeschool. Thanks for the encouragement. :)
