New from Lake Co, IL!

Hi!
I am Debbie Mumm and live in Grayslake, IL.
I am homeschooling for the first time. I have 5 kids, but this is my youngest. Alex is 12 but due to a poor start in a Russian orphanage, us adopting him at 5 1/2 and the schools not finding a 'label'...has gotten farther and farther behind academically. I am going back to the basics and give him a foundation so he can learn more quickly.
I am starting him at the 3rd grade level and hopefully give him some confidence to move onto harder subjects.
I have joined a few homeschool groups and am looking forward to using this program along with my supplements.
Thanks.

Welcome, Debbie! Glad to have you here. Lots of families with kiddos who are a little behind find T4L to be quite effective.
Since you are new to T4L and homeschooling, these guides might come in handy. How to Homeschool: A Guide for New Families

You might also check out the IL state forum. You are sure to find new friends and maybe even folks in your local area.
