And, even better... we will also have TONS more! Get excited, folks! We will be hammering out the details and work, work, working on getting everything in place for Co-op members. Please stay tuned to this newsletter for updates and Group Buy launches. Be sure to spread the word on this one! I am really bad in reading e-mails so I didn't notice it till questions pointed it out to me. I think we are all set! We will use CyberEd together with Singapore Science problems LMom

I have been hesitant to say much about it since it wasn't being offered anymore. I didn't want to say "Oh, there's this great curriculum, but you can't get it anymore. Bummer for you!" But if it's back on, then life is good. DS7 has just loved this! It is really the only packaged curriculum we use, and I can't say enough good things about it. It has been perfect for DS7. CyberEd, all the way! Fer sher! Kriston

It's 4th-8th grade but there isn't a lot of new material in it for DS except for near the end (the 7-8ht grade material) and it ain't cheap but DS5 will be able to use it. I can't comment on it just yet but I will as we do more in it. My friend, a physicist, highly recommended it to me.

It has been just the perfect mix of challenge and concept and fun for DS7. It was supposed to go away after this year, so I'm THRILLED that it's sticking around! Kriston
