7 Quick Takes: August 24, 2012 (Vol. 128)

August 24, 2012 by Angie 12 Comments

~ 1 ~ A few days ago, I felt like I should walk across the street and apologize to our neighbors. They frequently sit on the front porch and with the nice weather we’ve had a bit lately, we’ve had our front door open often.

I have shared a couple of times lately that we finally settled on a foreign language to study in our homeschool, and it’s French. The only problem with deciding on a language like French is that there aren’t as many curriculum choices as there are for things like Spanish or Latin. A couple of years ago, before we really cemented our language choice, we worked our way through the Hooked on French program from Hooked on Phonics (which they don’t {Read More}
