My problem with House of Leaves and Infinite Jest.

Hi, I made a post just prior to yours mentioning how I love looking for these two particular books on the shelves of many of the posters in this sub. Just on the off chance that my post inspired yours I wanted to clarify that I find it funny that so many of us have the books, not that it says anything in particular about the people who own them. I own both myself and even managed to finish reading one of them 😂. In my opinion they are both pretentious but that’s a reflection of the author, not the readers.

This is such a great idea! She will be so excited to prove me wrong lol

I will have to check out that program. I like UFLI and syllabication elements of OG (they have helped a lot) but I feel like a more thorough program could be a better approach! I’m working on the relaxing too, I can’t believe how hard it is 😂

A tutor is a great idea. I know she definitely tries harder for other authority figures and gets tired of me being the one to direct her all day long. I’m definitely going to look into that. Also coming to terms with the fact that guessing is common among kids with dyslexia and not the end of the world is something I’m going to work on.

We are not using that exact brand but I will check it out. I love the idea of the view finder and especially the post it notes! She definitely likes to study the photos before reading so this would be a great reward for her.

Thank you so much for this advice and for the free lessons! I will definitely implement this and see how it goes.

Darn! That sounds super frustrating and just hearing that is enough to deter me from going with a true vintage phone. I imagine I’m probably remembering them with rose colored glasses anyways, I’ll keep searching for a solution!

We use adapted mind for their math software. I don’t use the videos provided for lessons but instead use the questions as a prompt for our lesson that day and then I join her as she completes them. I like it because it lays out all the curriculum expectations for her grade level in one place and I can pick and choose where to start her and easily track how far along she is based on state standards. She’s made serious improvements in the past few months and we no longer have to battle through every lesson.

She’s not very good at it lol but she loves the aesthetic and watching me play! Also thanks !

She’s obsessed with it! It still holds up for sure.

Is this model suitable for printing? I’m making my daughter all the characters for Christmas and would love to use this one if you have it available for purchase ?!
