Homeschool Curriculum

"We had so much stress for so long over MATH. The crying, the chest pain, the frustration was terrible. Finally we took a long break from math and started again but this time we tried something different...Teaching Textbooks. This changed everything. My daughter has done so much better; the change is remarkable. Of course, its less time for me because the program grades everything, etc but the best part is that she works independently (which she should be doing at this age) and she UNDERSTANDS what she is doing. I saw a review once that said they did not like TT because they felt like the teacher did not explain why problems were done in a specific way. I do not agree. I took algebra up through college level and one thing you cannot stress over is "why". Algebra is a series of steps. Just memorize and follow the steps. You cannot question "why?" with Algebra; Its Algebra! I urge you to try it. Yes, its costly, and I even think its overpriced but I buy it because it works. We do not use the textbook itself much but its good to have and I do agree it could be done better. But since its not really used all that much, its not a huge factor. We use mainly the CD-ROMS. Try it! We will be using it for Algebra I, II, and Geometry too. "
