Tidbits of Learning: Monarch Online Curriculum (Review Coming Soon)
http://ourtidbitsoflearning.blogspot.com/2015/02/monarch-online-curriculum-review-coming.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2015. Monarch Online Curriculum (Review Coming Soon). I recently felt the need to supplement the children’s schooling, but didn’t really want to take on anything demanding that would require a lot of myself as a tutor as well. We have several things already in play that cost a lot. Money and time are huge factors for me on whether a curriculum will work in our house. I will post an in-depth review after we have been using it for at least 3 months. View my complete profile.

Tidbits of Learning: Comic Con 2015
http://ourtidbitsoflearning.blogspot.com/2015/02/comic-con-2015.html
Monday, February 23, 2015. We went to the local comic con here. Tadpole dressed up and had fun on a b-day party outing to it. Unfortunately, they were not prepared for the turnout and pre-sale tickets were bought out and a line. The venue could not accommodate everyone who turned up so at door tickets were sold as those leaving left new people could come in to the venue. . Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tidbits of Learning: May 2014
http://ourtidbitsoflearning.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 16, 2014. Singapore Math Ins and Outs. So over the years we have done several different versions of Singapore Math starting with US Edition, then Thinking Skills US edition and now Math in Focus. Lastly, make sure you do your homework. Singapore Math is not traditional US Math. There is a method to the madness and just teaching the way you learned is not going to accomplish the mental math awareness that the Singapore Method will achieve. Singapore Handbook for Primary Mathematics Teachers.

Saturday, March 21, 2015. K12 and Charter Schools…What does it really look like? First off, let me say as with everything….there is always good and bad. I have yet to find anything in life that was all sunshine and roses 100% of the time. We have used 2 different charter schools so far. One was a virtual charter academy and the other is a laboratory school. There is a big difference between the 2. And both have good and bad. Kindergarten-Virtual Charter Academy included art and music. 6th grade-Virtu...

Wednesday, March 12, 2014. Time 4 Learning Review. I was not financially compensated for this post. I received access to Time4Learning for my four students for review purposes for 30 days.
