We are piloting the tests again this year and I hope that component is part of it. Last year it was single student vs. "the machine."Leslie S.

We are having to reinvent some tride and true lessons to sync up with Common Core. At best I'd say it's a two year process to slide all the way over.Leslie S.

I chose to homeschool cause my girls barely pick up anything in a group setting. But anyway, it's been fascinating getting into the lesson plans and really getting involved in what my kids are learning. I'm looking forward to reading more from you about this.
