We take digital pictures of the children's work .  This has worked well for us.   Pictures are so easy to store and upload.   You can make digital portfolios.

You could also supplement with the free version of this    http://www.freeworldu.org/static/index.aspx   

Try playing the learning music at nights while your daughter is sleeping.   I am going to also start doing this.   I did have my children in private school but did choose to homeschool them.    I know this is not an option for many ;(


not sure about this site http://www.acceleratedlearningmethods.com/right-brain-learning.html

Not sure if you heard of brain gym but you could have her do these in the morning before school begins http://esl.about.com/od/englishlessonplans/a/braingym.htm

Thank you MUCH  and Karma to you

I really want to get this for my children .   I have to save up for it though...      http://tenderheartpress.com/index.html#

Yes I homeschool in the US.  It is accredited although you have to pay for that service.   I get the FREE version and we use that one

Susan Khan

This program is FREE  (they also have a pay version but we use ONLY the free one).  You do need to register but it is so very easy...   I find it useful for my 6,8, 15 year olds and also myself.....

DadDude,   Love your advise and knowledge.  I agree with you 100 percent.   

Also make sure your child had NO artificial colors and or dyes in their food.  NO colored candy,  fruit juice (only natural)  stay away from things like red number 40 and so on.

Even cereals in the morning contain these hidden colors.

I have also heard wonders about a all natural vitamin called bright spark.  you may want to give it a try as it is all natural.

Milk is a big no no for so many and so is any dairy product for that matter.

A simple allergy test could help a lot.....


I am thinking of you and your family.

HUGS...

We have been using   www.mindsprinting.com     We LOVE it...   If you have done kumon before this is similar in that it is done through worksheets...   Not only do they have math but reading also...    Cost is 49.95 for the WHOLE year both subjects....  Tutoring is very expensive...

Susan Khan

I love this site    www.mindsprinting.com      We still do speed drills on the basics ...
