Jaden has been bored with her kindergarten work lately, and she flies through it. I decided to order a placement test to see if she was ready for 1st grade. The test was easy to her. She passed. It, also, showed me what I would need to work with her more on. I ordered her 1st grade materials, and got her a curriculum that I thought would be good to improve her handwriting (A Reason for Handwriting). The other subjects I ordered through Rod and Staff (surprisingly!) I didn't think I would want to use Rod & Staff in the higher grades, though Morgan is using it for Preschool. However, I have been very impressed with their preschool workbooks and Morgan just loves them. I will let you know how First Grade goes. I only got the first quarter of 1st grade book work because I want to see if it will work for Jaden.
The things that Jaden needs work on are her handwriting, placement (fifth, sixth, etc), and her higher numbers. She is in the 1st grade at the home school co-op, and loves her classes there- it isn't too involved, but she is able to keep up with everyone.
