Norah finished her math Primer last week. Now she's movin' up to the Alpha book. (The beauty of home school is that you can move up when the child is ready. She isn't stuck in Kindergarten math just because she's still in Kindergarten.) And, this new book is serious. It has real tests. I'm stayin' cool about these in front of Norah, downplaying them, trying to keep her from getting nervous and developing the same anxiety I got over tests through years in public school. But, it's hard to believe. My baby's taking tests!
