Time4Learning gives us real Examples!

Time4Learning is our amazing curriculum that is giving us real examples that the boys can relate to.  I love when they are doing something on the their lessons and something strikes out as having already been done in real life or when they do something in real life that is related to something that they are doing.  Both boys relate to Time4Learning with different things going on in their lives and it is wonderful.

Zach just did a lesson on Tiles that he was exciting about because we had just spent a week in Florida laying down tile. Quentin often relates to things that he is doing as "I read about that on Time4Learning"……. 

 The boys run to do their work…..  There is no arguments, no moaning.  They have fallen into a very nice routine and I am loving it!  I noticed when Zach was in Florida he got crazy by the end of the week.  He needed to do his work and when his brain was not active every day with his school work he had to much to think about.  He enjoys his Language arts the most and hates math.  Time4Learning has really helped enable him to advance without frustration.  He now does his math without frustration because he can take it at his own pace without having a million problems to learn a concept.  Because his reading level is so far beyond his writing skills he loves the Online learning so that he can still learn but does not have to struggle with every letter he writes.
