Practical Mathematics
Posted in Homeschooling
Currently, Munchkin is not working with her traditional math book. Instead, we have been doing some practical application in preparation for our upcoming move.

TOS Review: Wee-Books
Posted in Homeschooling, and Reviews

The Old Schoolhouse has put together an easy way for us to refuel. Wee-books offer a chance to glean information from fellow homeschoolers and refresh ourselves. On our own time schedule, we…
