conference!

nate took this pic of the mommy robin last week, he ran into the house asked to use my camera and snapped it. not bad buddy!
nate all ready in the van to see nan, papa, quinn and charlie
1 min after we checked into our room on friday afternoon.  he needed his rest bec we had to hurry to get to the used book sale!  we set a budget of 300 for curric for nate. i knew what i wanted and i knew most of it was pricey.  i was thrilled that we scored big time at the sale...we got everything under 300!
just as the sale was ending, chris went to the van and i waited in the hallway, next thing i knew boxes and boxes of books were being dumped on the 'free' table!  i grabbed as much as i could that we would use.  most of it was for older kids but man! talk about being in the right place at the right time!  i even scored a math u see algebra for chris to play with....haha....all the books above were FREE!!!
this is what we bought
this is what i am using this yr

math-math u see primer. we bought the dvd, teachers manual and student book new
educating the wholehearted child is for me. haha
canada. basic info book on canada
heath, nutrition and safety, this book is super fun!!!
patternables. my big splurge!  we bought the shapes used and the book new. i am going to scan them onto card stock then laminate them
teach your child to read n 100 lessons with sing, speak and spell. i am not 100% sure how nate is going to thrive when learning to read, phonics? or memorization. so far it's a mix of both so i though i would throw in another curric for him...we shall see
4 square for writing. not sure if he's going to be doing this...

so i bought everything with the thoughts that we would use it next yr and for gr 1.  i plan on letting him set the pace and i will follow. if he's ready, great! if not, great! at least i have somethings to get started

AND i am under budget!  so i can buy a pair of shoes for me and little miss. e

ha!

(shan, if u see something u wanna try i can photocopy it for ya)
