What music are you using for learning addition facts?<br /><br />I love the idea of using the audio version of Story of the World in the car! I think we'll try that for 2nd grade.<br /><br />I'm not a poster on the Well Trained Mind message boards, but I do often peruse the forums for information.Sarah Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348347054374584427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313009931298256746.post-4143742170981412252013-05-22T20:22:39.362-06:002013-05-22T20:22:39.362-06:00We *love* Life of Fred and Story of the World.

I'm not a home schooler but a school supplementer, and these have been fun ways to add education without it seeming like more school.<br /><br />We're on Cats in Life of Fred, reading a bit aloud at night before bed each night. I'm going to have to slow down or start over at the end of this one as the math is becoming too challenging for my first grader.<br /><br />Story of the World we bought on audio and listen to in the car. More than once, we've sat in the driveway to finish a chapter, and we're all learning from it. Way to use that wasted time driving from place to place! :) We also like math music to learn addition facts.<br /><br />Are you on the Well Trained Mind message boards? If you're not, you should be! :)Jessicanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313009931298256746.post-54363941873158787222013-03-17T10:18:04.000-06:002013-03-17T10:18:04.000-06:00Thank you for introducing me to the Life of Fred b...Thank you for introducing me to the Life of Fred books. My son is 6.5 and is a math guy already. I think he will get a kick out of these books. Now if I could find something to turn him onto reading. <br /><br />Cant wait to see more of your homeschooling posts.

I will look further into Right Start for math, as it sounds great based on what you've said. <br />Sarah Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348347054374584427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313009931298256746.post-42262405179005109652013-02-26T20:23:26.013-07:002013-02-26T20:23:26.013-07:00I feel I have discovered an on line "kindred ...I feel I have discovered an on line "kindred spirit". I could read your blog all night! Amazed at how much we share in common and also inspired to learn more about some of the topics on which you write, I had to smile when I saw mention of Dr. Ben Carson via your virtues link above. LOVE him. We do much of the same curricula you do, but one suggestion for math - have you looked into Right Start by Dr. Joan Cotter? It follows much of the same philosophy as Singapore, but with an emphasis on math games and very few worksheets, especially for the younger years. Your daughter (and you too) may enjoy it.Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277047964484248838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313009931298256746.post-24415502920687638262013-02-22T09:51:05.478-07:002013-02-22T09:51:05.478-07:00Thanks Elizabeth.Thanks Elizabeth.Sarah Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348347054374584427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313009931298256746.post-18261197420942161322013-02-22T09:15:05.765-07:002013-02-22T09:15:05.765-07:00You might enjoy herbalrootszine.com for some of yo...You might enjoy herbalrootszine.com for some of your nature study.
