ON LINE TUTORING PROGRAMS 

One of the most remarkable sites I have seen is shown here.  Everyone I know in the teaching profession, whether in home schooling, or the more traditional public and private educational institutions, has (at some time) wished for ready made materials that will teach cursive handwriting in a painless way.

Here is the answer to that dilemma.  No only will you find ready made practice pages for teaching your students how to print their names, but they will also learn the proper way to make each letter.

And wait until you see the math section.  Remember long division?  I have agonizing memories of teaching that "art" of keeping your figures in the proper columns for ones, tens, hundreds....Well, this site actually walks you through the procedure.  It's done live.

Watch this page for other links to strategic sections in this excellent site.  And it's free.  The teacher who developed it requests donations from those who can afford to pay something, either through a mailed check or through PayPal.  Her goal is to keep it free for the children to learn.

What a refreshing concept.  Check it out, right here.
