A happy mom sent me this the other day and I just had to share it.
This is Cole. He is my 11 year old (6th grade) son. For 4 years we have stressed, cried, and begged the school to help figure out what was going on with him. They kept saying ADHD (surprise!) But after being tested twice he still wasn’t diagnosed ADHA. I started pushing for him to be tested for dyslexia. But, Ky doesn’t do that. I finally had him tested myself and guess what? Momma was right! But KY doesn’t recognize dyslexia as a LD so rather than fight the system I pulled Cole out and began homeschooling. He is a totally different child! He is not angry all the time and I enjoy our time together! When the MUS block came in the mail Cole wanted to play with them but I didn’t have time to work with him (sick baby) After a few minuets he called me into the kitchen and this is what he had made. I nearly cried!
Since he has started with the MUS program. We started with Beta and he is doing 2-3 lessons a day. I hope to have him back on grade level before long.
Thanks for making math so easy!
Jini and Cole
I love this testimony! My 10yo just came up to me a moment ago and gave me a kiss and said, “I love you, mom! Thanks for teaching me exponents!” LOL
Not a sentence you hear everyday!
This was beautiful! I love Math-u-see and so do my kids.I posted this on my blog so my homeschooling followers will see, thanks for sharing this!
We love MUS too…
Don’t try to push him into a grade level…he’ll get it in time.
Our now 12 year old skipped math for 2 years and went through 2 MUS books in one school year. -the one after Beta. lol
I can’t remember the names of the books..but he’s doing just fine in math, and is described very much like your son.
Just some encouragement!
As a special education teacher I ADORE MUS!!! My students finally understand sequential processes, and operations and, and, and,
they love doing math!!!!
Thank you for your testimony. My two kids are ADHD (not medicated) and one is dyslexic (he is 8). They used to cry through math. Last year I changed them both to MUS. My thirteen year old finally LOVES to do math, and my eight year old actually does math first because he can’t wait to get to it. MUS IS AWESOME!!! I wish all subjects could be taught this way.
