Glad to hear you found it elsewhere. BTW, my yr 1 print version Loom disk had this article listed under "General Helps." Enjoy the rest of your year!

OK, I am having a brain cramp here as I start planning for cycling back to y2 later this summer. I have a note written in my 2009 print year plan that the then recommended resource, The Middle Ages...
I start by entering resources by ISBN. Once the resources are loaded, it's easy to create assignments or lesson plans. I use the + version (not online) so I do lesson plans and then reuse them for...
Good to know ... thanks, Pat!

Can anyone comment on how they would "rate" it for age level? I want to know if my UG kids could sit in while my R dd and I watch it.
Thanks,
Monica
You can also search online for coloring pages of some Impressionist works and color them with colored pencils, or with water colors. You could also just experiment with water colors a bit. There...
I had saved the mail with the links to the older newsletter outlining the upcoming direct customer pricing policy information. Now I find out that those links only go to the current month's...
The short answer is, "Nope." Currently no ereaders or tablets (that I know of) are compatible with LockLizard. You can't read any encrypted Tapestry files without it. We can hope that one day the...
I use the discussion guides. Sometimes they suggest you go over charts or specific facts and details. Sometimes it guides you to help them pull it all together. I don't specifically go over each...
Let me echo the other posters' feedback. We started Tapestry when my oldest was in 3rd grade and my younger two still toddlers. Things went very well because "school time" was devoted to just the...
Pat,
I am the last one to be giving you advice -- you've been teaching at the R level longer than I have. But as a fellow traveler on this road, I share your scepticism about what you have been...
That sounds wonderful -- the Bible survey has been our favorite part of this year! Thanks,
Monica
Isaiah chapters are not assigned on the reading chart this week, but half of the R-level SAP questions and half of the Bible dicussion guide are from Isaiah. Should I assume that the only passages...
Thanks! OK, ladies, here is my dd's essay. As I mentioned in my original post, I am seeking feeback for me as the teacher as to what kinds of things I should focus on to guide her for her next lit...
This is an area of teaching in which I am less confident. My oldest dd (14 yo R) just finished her first lit analysis essay. May I post it on this forum to get any general feedback? My aim is to...
You can also have him check Poetics on your Loom. There is a literary terms index in Appendix B on my DE. Back when I had print only, I know Poetics was on the Loom disk, but I don't know if it is...
What ages are your boys? When we last did yr, my kids were K, 1st, and 6th. The younger two made "books" by drawing or coloring pages on various colonial crafts (not artsy crafts, but things like...
Great reminder! I didn't mean to open a can of worms for customer service. Back when I did this sort of work-around before the days of the archived pages, it was easy to get lost and frustrated --...
Thanks, Alex. BTW, this wasn't my idea -- it was something I remembered as a recommendation from back before you all developed the oh-so-appreciated Book Updates chart with archived pages. I just...
The recent newsletter notifies us about several rather interesting updates on the horizon, and advises us to make paper copies of certain types of pages we may want to retain access to after...
Thank you very much, Sharon. This is our 3rd time through year 1, but the first time with a rhetoric student. I did do as you suggested for a couple of the weeks at the beginning of unit 2. I'm...
We like using the trimming/cutting charts Tapestry has provided for R level lit.
It has helped us make yr 1 R lit more manageable for a 9th grader. Has anyone
developed their own version of a...
The UG eval page for wk 15 has the answers already filled in so it is identical to the answer key. Is there a corrected version available?
Interestingly enough, there is no link to this eval...
Just in case anyone was following this thread, I wanted to make note of the specific things I have done as I work on this.
1. Pray first.
2. Read the teacher's notes, assignments, and...
Thanks for all of your insight, Pat. It's funny, because this is precisely what I do with history, Bible, and all of our other subjects. I remain humbled and prayerfully rest in the fact that God...
