Education Panel To Decide Fate Of 23 NYC Schools. So sad. Instead of fixing things, they want to terminate them… then you end up sending all those children to different schools. You overcrowd those classrooms. You overwhelm the teachers. You hurt the educational process all around. Sad sad sad.
Thankfully we are just about all caught up with 4th grade math! It was a trip to get here, let me tell you! All this drama just because I *yes me* misunderstood the order of the math books we were using. It’s not as though they have anything in the actual book to tell me [...]
We are celebrating Chanukah this year, in honor of my husband’s Spanish Jewish heritage and, of course, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We were able to go to the mall last night where they had a whole Menorah lighting service. First there was a performer who was remarkable in his craft: While he performed, [...]
We are reading Hanukkah: Eight Nights, Eight Lights by Malka Drucker. There are 8 chapters so we can read for 8 days of the holiday all about what it entails, culminating in a report about what he has learned. We are working on more of his writing skills, as his story telling skills are already [...]
This was the answer to one of his questions so far this morning.

Meanwhile, we still were able [...]
Funny that I was reading through THL and there was a discussion on our personal philosophies for educating our children at home. I had to sit and think hard about it for a few minutes. I mean I know all the reasons WHY but I have never tried to pair them down to one succinct [...]
I was thinking of having an end of the year party for Taz this year. He has had a phenomenally successful learning experience this year. He is getting ready to get into division! His handwriting has improved to the point of legible cursive writing. He has read a ton of books. His scientific mind has [...]
SO at long last I felt that we were ready to really do this. I got my son to pray with me and we went over the logo and he chose the verse. I wanted it to be a memory for him, that he got a chance to shape the way he learns and grows. [...]
His follow up to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid involved him reading the Big Nate series, which is similar, but not wholly the same as its predecessor. He just finished the third book this morning. I am sure he would have been done them a long time ago, but he is so taken by [...]
