Now it's time to brag on the other one!

Last year, we used the Miquon math books in combination with the Developmental Math books. We finished Miquon Orange & Miquon Red, as well as Developmental Math Levels 1 and 3. We've been finishing up Level 2 over the summer, along with what Gillian calls her 'thin books' - the little workbooks like you get at Walgreens or the grocery store or Target or wherever. Yesterday, we finished Level 2 and another thin book, and she & I decided to go ahead and start Miquon Blue today, as well as Developmental Math Level 4.

I should point out here that while she loves the Miquon books, she doesn't necessarily love the Developmental Math books, and has been known to say she 'hates' them.

So, twenty-three pages later, she's on track to finish the first unit of Developmental Math Level 4 tomorrow. Yep, tomorrow. She just started going and didn't want to stop. Right now she's taking a break before doing her Miquon. I shudder to think about how many pages she'll do there...

... did I mention that she likes math? :)


Oh, and she lost another tooth. Doubly lost, again - out of her mouth and out of her life. I jokingly told her the next time that a tooth is really really loose, I'm not letting her go to camp.
