I think he would like unschooling but I just like Montessori school way too much. I am not as brave as Tina to take on my two monkeys! I relinquish (not really) their educational experiences to those Montessori trained individuals I have come to trust and respect. Thanks for linking my "brain child" on your blog. <BR/><BR/>HeatherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5719427098371748117.post-77644669940738049802008-06-23T06:02:00.000-04:002008-06-23T06:02:00.000-04:00I, also, am amazed at how quickly they are progres...I, also, am amazed at how quickly they are progressing. The 3yo seems to taking to this learning method like it was hand-crafted for her. (and perhaps it was) It is real encouraging to see my 7yo grandson attempting to read and pronounce hard words. He used to skip over them or ask someone else to read them for him. As for the 10yo and decimals.... come on...that's kind of a no-brainer isn't it? (Dad's and engineer and Mom was a math major) Maybe a genetic advantage at work here. LOL Just kiddin'; that really is impressive. But then, as a proud Granddad, I have said right from the start... that is one smart kid! I do wonder, however, (not to take anything away from him at all) but I am not sure he is the most intelligent of three very bright children. The middle one continues to amaze me with his progress despite the challenges he faces. As for the youngest... All I can say is "look out big brothers" that is one sharp little girl. She is way beyond her years! All in all I am proud to tell my oldest.... Great job Mom & Dad. Together, as a team, you are raising some great kids.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09175398263801801244noreply@blogger.com
