Rosetta Stone

We picked this up and will begin using it as soon as we have a spare moment. I am hoping that this will speed up the language learning. She started using some phonics things that were suggested online and is doing great. She is very quick and seems to retain what she is learning. We are going to start setting up a schedule each day so that she can use a variety of resources to learn and exercise her body. It will be my version of summer school. :-)

Today Ellise will go to Wen's graduation from 1st grade. She will then spend the rest of the day hanging out at Wen's school. I will pick her up at around 3:30 so that doesn't leave much in the way of learning time today. Looks like I am going to have to pop those learning DVDs into the van DVD player today. Kennedy will be thrilled I am sure. LOL While Kennedy and I are out, we will be picking up some additional supplies. I found that if she can write small, she does much better than tracing and making really large letters. This type of writing seems age appropriate anyway so we are going to go with it.
Talk to you soon!
