Trip to the Homeschool Store

I've schooled the kids through the summer.   My son finished his math book a couple of weeks ago.  I knew I needed new something for math.   I used Singapore Math with my daughter.   The store didn't have much for K and I couldn't find what I used for my daughter.   The owner told me the US edition was not published.   You could get the International stuff.   I looked at International edition and then looked at Saxon and Horizon.   I decided Horizon was the direction I wanted to go with him.  I found a used Teacher's Edition for Horizons (K) Math yea!   I bought a new workbook. 

After looking into Handwriting programs, I liked Handwriting without Tears.  I found a used TE for Handwriting.  Yea!  We already have every Bob book ever written for reading.  We are plugging along with sight words.   The new books gave us what we needed to keep going with school.  I feel very blessed to have a homeschool store within a reasonable driving distance, so I can go and kick the tires of various curriculum.   They also have a great used section. 

My son looks forward to starting Kindergarten next year.   This year we'll enjoy homeschooling.
