I don't do Ebay, I hate the auctions! (Tried it once!). Homeschool Classifieds doesn't have the Geometry...I've been checking daily for the last two weeks. Do you have a link for the Well Trained Mind board?
dd wants video text, so that is decidedly what we will do with her depending on the discount we could get for her goign out... and if I cant send her out for JUST math, which would be fun for her!
hmmm a well trained mind swap? Id gladly swap my mind for a well trained one today! LOL! Sorry could not help myselF!
T'mom, you want it for geometry? I'll keep my eyes open for it while looking for my Teaching Textbooks, and let you know if I find it used anywhere!
Teacher Mom, The Well-Trained Mind is a book and there is a forum online for home schooling discussions. Pretty funny though:lol: Jackie, here is the link: http://wtmboards.com/saleswap/
Nellie, thanks! I looked through it, and they didn't have anything. there were several listings from last June, though, lol! But you know how these tlhings work! I bookmarked it (along with my other used boards!), and will check back every day!
I knew that I was just trying to be humorous, playing with the words. I have probably actually read it at some point in my hs career even. But the way my brain was feeling yesterday with deadlines and baseball, and bible studies and school plus figuring out what to do with each kid in house, and hair cuts and .... well you see why the thought to joke over the title was good for me :lol:
I'll join ya, TMom! I need a well-trained mind too! At least weller trained than this one I have! :lol: I still reference my WTM book quite a bit. I don't go by it exactly, I glean ideas that will work for me.
If anyone is interested, I just saw TT Geometry for $130 at VegSource!!! http://www.vegsource.com/homeschool/fs712/messages/50711.html
Thanks Jackie! I'm hoping to do the Geometry with my ds next year, so I went there and messaged that I want it. We'll see if I get it or not!
That's kinda how I feel too. I don't like changing math curriculums, especially when there is really nothing wrong with Saxon for us. I'm undecided, but at least I have a couple years before algebra.
We switched to TT because Saxon just didn't fit with my kids. I tried it two different times, cuz I WANTED it to work. TT is doing very well for us! Well, I heard back. She said it sold this morning, but she'll keep my name in case it falls through. She just put it up this morning! Maybe I need to take my Saxon there! Wonder if it would sell as well? Thanks again for the heads up on that! I'll keep looking. If you see any more, let me know!
Because I saw the book for sale, and knew someone was looking for it and did a search. And because we were discussing it on the other thread and I couldn't remember where.
