Math Time

I had to get Ellyn a new math book, she had finished her old one and was ready to move on. I found a great on at Barnes and Noble. For Andy I use Math U See and love it. I will probably get the same for Ellyn next year. The Math U See comes with all the fun blocks that help the kids do the math and understand it. One other thing I like about it, is the lessons are taught by a teacher and they just have to watch it on DVD. Then they have lesson pages that go with it and then review pages and then a test. And it is up to me how many lesson pages they need and review pages. For Andy usually one lesson page is needed because he has caught on to the concept and then does one review and then his test. So far he seems to like it.

Today it must have been "do math on the floor day", can you see the nice desks they both have? The ones not being used? All part of homeschooling.
