Re: Am I the Only One Who Has.....
When we used Rod and Staff Math I use to let the kiddos write in the textbook.

Re: Am I the Only One Who Has.....
Another quick note, I would love to have a guide for me. I have one in Res. to Ref. and two in CtC. I purchased a guide for each of them but I'd like one to make mama notes like, "check caleb's notebook" and such. Hopefully next year I can afford one for me too.

Re: Am I the Only One Who Has.....
Hmmmm, maybe next year I'll do better. I'll be purchasing new guides, so I can start fresh :D . I like to let the children highlight and such. I have one son who needs to cross off each sentence of instruction as he completes the History Project. I also like giving each child their own guide. I don'...

Res. to Ref. Unit 7 {Shield)
My daughter enjoyed making her shield. She first used graph paper to draw the eagle then transferred it to whit construction paper to color and cut. I like that HOD brings out her creativity, something we weren't doing before. It's a nice break from her other subjects.

Re: Am I the Only One Who Has.....
I think my kiddos are visual and when they see that big check or x it's a wonderful feeling and to tell you the truth, I like seeing the boxes x'ed off too :oops: Each child will have their own Guide (Lord willing) so it's okay if they mark it up. I use to be one who didn't like any marks but I've c...

Am I the Only One Who Has.....
Am I the only one who has Guides that look like this. My kiddos feel a sense of accomplishment and love putting a big x or check mark on the box. Once Annette is completely done she checks it off with one huge one across the page

CtC Unit 4~Watercoloring
Here's our watercolor paintings. I admit that I didn't know how to smudge. I have two other children down the road so hopefully next year I'll do better.
We enjoyed it though and the boys were pleased with their painting.
