I wish I would have found this video about 6 hours ago:) I have spent many, many hours trying to wrap my head around this curriculum. THANK YOU for making it so easy to see and understand. I am still very skeptical about how/if we will use this at home, but I appreciate the basic understanding that I now have because of you! We have been a CC family for 10 years and one of my biggest struggles is that I have a hard time with how CC presents information, it usually doesn't make sense to my brain and I feel like it's a runaround just trying to get answers and see how it actually works. You are a blessing.

My daughter is in B which I’m directing but I decided for us at home we were stepping back to build a better foundation. It’s 2:13 am and I feel I can get some rest then get back at it tomorrow. Our booklets arrived 2 days ago and I’ve been pulling my hair out. I only have 3 days to grasp this due to family obligations before we start in Aug.

The art is part of the exorcism that we go through on community day. I think you’ll be amazed at how much your child learns at community day, making it require less time than you think. Also, it’s a new way to approach math that might take your kids dislike of math to excitement about math.

I don't have my notations and fractions flashcards yet, but am wondering it there is a rhyme/reason to how the cards are arranged with respect to the content on both sides of the cards. One of my frustrations with the multiplication cards was that it was virtually impossible to separate out the cards for the current week of Math in Foundations.They just all seemed mixed up which is fine for drilling after a student is familiar with them all, but makes it difficult to sort out a subset for the current week's memory work.
@AmbersClassicalClassroom2 ай бұрын
I understand what you are saying. I guess that’s the downfall of having two flash cards on one card (by utilizing half of the card). I will say that they seem to keep concepts together though. So the Greek letters have a Greek letter on the back. So if you introduce alpha you probably could introduce beta on the same week (and that’s the front and back of one card).
