I have not bought the Miquon yet and I am getting the Saxon from a friend, who is not done yet, and mine's not done with 4th yet, so it will all work out. Just need the $$ for the Miquon. I really LOVE Miquon for the beginning math!Garilyn Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12428869549461392137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783096872060153609.post-30244731764830918012008-12-30T07:18:00.000-08:002008-12-30T07:18:00.000-08:00P.S.

Math Confused--that is my NT son, liberal arts lover, unlike his dad, the engineer, and his mom, the mathematician--yet, another example of God's sense of humor. Not only that, my dh is the tallest of his siblings, aunts, and uncles at 5'6" (and I am only 5'4"). But, our David turned out to be Goliath--16yo and 6'1" without the help of Miracle-Gro, wheaties, or veggies. Yep, God has a sense of humor!!!walkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05046468024103932112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783096872060153609.post-14642882057078592622008-12-30T07:15:00.000-08:002008-12-30T07:15:00.000-08:00I saw a link between vaccines and Pamela's physica...I saw a link between vaccines and Pamela's physical health. She even broke in a rash after getting eye drops for pink eye that had thimerosal (the mercury ingredient in question). We did not figure it out until it was too late. I think it definitely contributed to her autism, if it did not cause it. I do think there are other factors and I think it is not prudent to state vaccines cause all autism.<BR/><BR/>People who believe that autistic children lack feelings must not know many. Autistic children feel just as much as anyone, BUT sometimes it takes an intense emotion for it to appear on their face, which is how WE interpret emotion. Some autistic children do have a hard time reading facial expressions and need to learn that, but I believe they understand what the emotion is, what it feels like, etc. They may lack the words for it, but the cognition (ideas) and feelings are already there. But, who am I? The mom of a lovely 19yo autie!<BR/><BR/>Pamela was in special ed preschool and then we homeschooled her from age 19 on. I have NEVER regretted that decision. NEVER! She is a happy person, she is still learning and growing, she is very connected to us in wanting to relate to us and be with us. I think the social environments of many schools are not able to facilitate the desire to connect with people.walkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05046468024103932112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3783096872060153609.post-49468601416136342402008-08-20T14:10:00.000-07:002008-08-20T14:10:00.000-07:00Mrs Buckman, Have you seen this incredible collect...Mrs Buckman, Have you seen this incredible collection of printable math worksheets for <A HREF="http://www.printable-worksheets.com/math/money_worksheets.html" REL="nofollow">learning about money?</A>BBat50https://www.blogger.com/profile/09736054246852300843noreply@blogger.com
