Schooling by the book

A few weeks ago, I gave myself a challenge: follow RightStart B to the word for four weeks and then decide if I didn't like it.

I don't know how long I've been doing this "challenge", but it has been wonderful.

I love RightStart B. It is easy to teach. If John clearly knows how to do a section, we do a few problems and move on. He loves the games. If we just do it consistently (which we have, recently), he'll be "accelerated" even though the text goes deeply into concepts. I don't need to speed things up.

Next up: four weeks of "by the book" Spell to Write and Read. Then I can decide if I really can't handle it.
