Thank you for the link!! Sounds like a wonderful site; do they offer language lessons online? If so, are they free? I like Rosetta Stone but the cost was a little steep for me to invest in. Have you looked into any other sites that offer these services? Just wondering what is out there…trying to learn some Japanese before my trip in November.

Do you know anything about other sites like Mango Languages, edufire or italki? I saw them on You Tube videos and they looked interesting too.

Thanks for posting the other planner websites, I am off to check those out!
I see you and I both were impressed with the TOS digital HS Planner. I am definately using that this year!
Looking forward to reading more of your blog!

Comment on An Icky “Learning Moment” by Tammy Cardwell

I’m grinning here and remembering the day my son and I discovered the grass snake weaving its way through the chain link fence. Now, I did know it was not venomous, but other than boa constrictors (Yeah, I’m weird), I’d never cared much for anything of the serpent family. Being the good homeschool mother, though, I determined to show great interest and discuss with him the wonderful way it was able to travel.

I did really well, imo, until he asked if he could pet it. LOL!

(But I…er…did recently wear a large constrictor..or was it a python?… for a while when I was in Playa del Carmen. Honestly, she was beautiful and I wish I’d had more time to spend with her. Yes, I know I’m strange.)

Comment on From a Cluttered Desk » Was C. S. Lewis Onto Something? by Tammy Cardwell

Thank you for the compliment! It was a pleasant surprise, when I went into my blog back office today, and saw your link. I appreciate your comment and appreciate, as well, the fact that you shared with others. As a fellow blogger you know that you can sometimes feel like you’re blogging in a vacuum.

Maybe Lewis was onto something and maybe he wasn’t, but it definitely gives you things to think about, doesn’t it? For one thing, I look at my two cats in a very different light now. What would they say about me if they could talk?

Horray! What a great idea! Here in PA, we have to hand in portfolios of the kids’ work and I never had a way to include the lapbooks in with their appropriate subject! Now I can. Thanks!
