We tried Get ! Piano - Get ! Piano Tutor in our morning learning block, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with building a little practice into the week. We liked having a resource to return to instead of starting from scratch.
We tried Aesop’s Fables: Books about Reading, Writing, and Thinking: Dyslexia Versions alongside a weekly co-op, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with making writing sessions feel manageable. We made room for extra discussion rather than trying to finish quickly.
We tried Collins Easy Learning Preschool - Starting School during a quiet afternoon session, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with talking through a task before trying it. It was a welcome addition, though we still adjusted it to suit our week.
We tried Canadian French Math Basics as part of our home learning routine, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with being willing to try before getting everything right. We would recommend looking at the publisher’s sample before deciding.
We tried 2GS – British when we wanted a change of pace, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with returning to a concept without rushing. For us, the value was in returning to it regularly.
We tried All About Reading Pre-Reading on the days we learned together, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with making time for reading together. We liked the direction it gave us while leaving room to add our own ideas.
We tried Amazing Ants: Simple Sidewalk Science during a shorter school week, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with connecting a topic with what we notice outside. We would keep it in our regular rotation.
We tried A Pageant of History: Middle Ages in a small learning space, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with adding a useful starting point for discussion. It gave us a useful starting point, and we adapted the pace.
We tried Collins KS3 Revision - KS3 Geography All-in-One Complete Revision and Practice: Ideal for, 8 and 9 at the kitchen table, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with making our map conversations more focused. A useful resource, though we needed to adapt more than we expected.
We tried Canadian Creative Colouring: Mandalas between our library visits, and it fitted our routine well. It helped with talking about the choices in a finished piece. It worked best when we kept sessions short and consistent.
