Math Mammoth

Some of us in the Homeschool Crew received some Math Mammoth books to review. Since my son is 8 and has a pretty good understanding of his addition, subtraction, and multiplication facts, I chose to review Introduction to Fractions and Early Geometry.

Both books are Read more »

Multiplication Help

Here is a website I found that is really fun for children (especially boys) to help reinforce their times tables. You can download the program for free. The only thing I wanted to mention is that it has kind of a dark castle theme with a ogre type man that comes out with times facts on the front of his shirt that you need to solve. If your children would be afraid of this you might want to check it out first.

Financial Accounting Course


I had the privilege of reviewing a Financial Accounting Course called Professor in a Box, designed especially for homeschool students. Since one of my daughters is a senior and would like to go into business for herself as an esthetician (spa owner), I thought that this would be a good course for her to take. She absolutely hates math, so this course was met with quite a bit of resistance. She has been slow in getting going with this and is working on the third lesson.

The course consists of 12 chapters broken down into Read more »

Aleks Math Review

In the past year I came across a program called Aleks (which stands for Assessment and LEarning in Knowledge Spaces).

I recently signed up for the 30 day trial and thought I would post Read more »

Each chapter ends with an introduction to the next character, so you need not return home to access the next area of the story. Each chapter can also be read independently of the others, allowing you greater flexibility in accessing information about one particular topic.
