I started to title this post “I love my math books”, but then I realized that the books weren’t mine (which is probably at least a small part of why I love them).  But “Life of Fred” for geometry is wonderful.  My daughter actually said that she thought it was a trick to get her to like math.  She is enjoying it and that is a first for us!

Singapore Math is also working out for my little one.  It’s colorful and moves at just the right pace–not so fast that she can’t keep up and not so slow that she get bored.  I like it so much that I have now ordered the Singapore Science.  I hope that it is as good as the math program.

And my son is loving UL.  He’s had a half week now, and it’s going really well.  Every time one of my children is succeeding in an academic setting, I am grateful that my kids are bright and interested and do well in whatever situation they find themselves in.

It’s a great start to a new school year.
