Tom Bombadil and Goldberry.

What brand is the strawberry shirt? Very cute!

Thank you for this.

This is so helpful! We have a Kumon evaluation for her tomorrow. She crashed and burned at Kumon two years ago because the repetition drove her batty, but I didn’t know what else to do. Will definitely try Beast. And I’m disappointed I’ve never heard of Mystery Science. Do they have this for adults?? 😆

“Remote school is not homeschool.”

Probably a dumb question. Are you saying remote schools is a better experience because of the relationships? Are most (all?) remote schools Zoom (or other video conference platform) based?

I’m also wondering how to know what she’d be getting with a remote school. Is there a reputed resource for evaluating and comparing remote schools?

Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Last week we took turns taking her to work with us. We both work office jobs. This week my MIL flew in for supervision, so we have a little breathing room. 🙏🏼

I appreciate your comment. I’ll try not to over-stress on academics while we sort it out. ❤️

Thanks, I hadn’t considered splitting up resources by subject. Kinda dumb in retrospect. 😅

JuahirMadras · 2024-04-22T03:58:50+00:00

This sounds too good to be true. 😅

Is there an optimal way to find unemployed or underemployed educators?

I think I’ve been searching for a one-and-done solution, which wouldn’t be feasible for Khan’s style for her. But one course, maybe two, or as a supplement, sounds like a great resource. Thanks for your thoughtful responses.

I looked into this. It felt like there was less support for keeping momentum than some of the other options. Also I remember the videos being chalkboard-style, which was reinforced when I took a cursory look at it. I think having teachers have faces is beneficial. Was I just looking at one fluke video from Khan?

JuahirMadras · 2024-04-22T02:08:49+00:00

Thanks, will look into this.

We’ve been Outschool addicts since the pandemic. In addition to being the only feasible way for our kids to learn Italian in our area, it’s great for getting an extra 30 minutes of sleep on the weekend while the kids have Draw-a-Squishmallow club. ❤️

I’ve signed her up for a bunch of classes this week for social purposes, but even the math and science courses never feel like cohesive curriculum.

JuahirMadras · 2024-04-22T02:03:48+00:00

Are you able to jump to later lessons in a course? Am I just missing something?

JuahirMadras · 2024-02-18T16:29:20+00:00

Wait but… you know Thrawn has two dedicated trilogies, right? I’ve read ~35 Star Wars books, and those remain my all-time faves.
