First off let me say WOOOHOOO to Z ( and mom) for completing the LA lessons!!! That brings to mind a question about the LA section. Are the extensions a part of the LA curriculum or are they just “extensions or extra practice” ? ( Is that proper punctuation…the ” followed by the ? … I think mom needs more grammar….aaahhhh) Also, has anyone come across the need for using the writing tool ? I am wanting my children to do weekly writing assignments but have not seen where the writer is used?
As you know we are new to homeschooling. We have had the usual objections from parents…they are supporting but reluctantly. On Tuesday my son will go and take a academic assessment test given at our local university, ( the girls already took it last week during the appendix issue) ….so the girls will spend the morning with my mom. Thanks again to T4L I will not have to worry about their school work. Hopefully seeing how great this program is and how much fun the kids have with it my mom will be less reluctant….. I will keep you posted!!

I’m sorry but it was Language arts and not LA extensions that he finished, just to clear that up… (I had a moment and wrote the wrong thing or heard the wrong thing) We have yet to use the writing program. There is also a section that said “Assignments in progress” and I am unclear about that. I wonder if the boys are missing something that they are supposed to be doing? Also, Zachary is having some issue with some of the reading on the higher level science and social studies. I wanted to try the talking parrot thinggy but don’t want it available to Q.. Any ideas on how to install this? I tried to do it once but gave up… Thanks!
Good luck to your kids on their testing! I was a nervous wreck waiting for the results of our testing! But it was all good! I’m sure yours will be as well.
