An Interesting Take on Vocabulary Words {Timberdoodle Review!}

Learning vocabulary words was always the most tedious and boring lesson for me when I was in school. I hated looking up the definitions, writing them all out, etc. to just forget them all after the test. It would take me hours to do a simple assignment because I always put off doing it. As a result, I have been more lenient with Mr. B because I didn't want to put him through the same torturous classwork! Well, that all changed when I discovered101 Doodle Definitionsfrom Timberdoodle!

101 Doodle Definitions is a great vocabulary exercise book that features 101 of the most-used words that you will find on standardized tests. Folks, these aren't your average vocabulary words. These are the words that are at the end of the test that most everyone just guesses on because you're never really sure what the definitions are. Each word is arrange alphabetically the book, and they feature a little cartoon-like drawing, the definition-along with what part of speech it is, the word usa…

Math Mammoth REVIEW!!!!!

Math is one of those subjects that is hard for me to choose a particular curriculum, or style. Mr. B likes to use the computer for his work, and I also like the benefits of worksheets or printables. It's hard to find something to fit both of our needs, that is affordable, and good quality. Insert Math Mammoth. I had never even heard of Math Mammoth before it came up for review, and after checking it out I was so very excited to try out the Light Blue Series for 5th grade.

This math curriculum is mastery based and utilizes conceptual learning. I'm sure you're probably wonder what in the world that means, right? Please say yes, because I know I was certainly wondering! Basically, your student will master each topic before moving on to the next, and units are arranged in themes of sorts. Conceptual learning isn't just learning the how's, but it addresses the logic behind the math. 2+2=4, but why? That's conceptual learning, and it's GREAT for autism!
