Remember how my husband was going to take over teaching math for first grade? Weeellll....to put it nicely, he isn't very consistant with it. He did 2 nights of math the first 2 days. A week later he did 3 pages with her, which is 1 1/2 lessons in Abeka's first grade math. That was 9 days ago, and he hasn't done any since. He is quite possesive of doing math with her, and doesn't want me working in the book with her at all because HE can handle it.
Thankfully, there's a solution to this problem. In addition (puns intended LOL) to me orally working on her skip counting and math facts through the day, I also happen to own Saxon 1, which we had completed almost 1/2 of the book in before buying Abeka. I had left off at Lesson 56 out of 130 lessons. Over the weekend I picked it back up, and E and I did lessons 57, and 58. My husband suspiciously asked what we were doing. I just innocently replied we were doing Saxon. He said, "It looks like math." I replied, "This isn't the book you guys do math in, is it?" LOL
Now watch...this will be the semi-annual time he reads my blog....LOL!
