Thank you so much for your review Richele!! I have been looking for reviews lately… I was stuck on what to use for my boy for this coming school year. I will start with Life of Fred for my 7th grader… we will start with the Fractions/ Decimals & Percentages….probably use the first half of the year and then begin on Pre-Alegbra. He is good at math, but we are going into our second year of homeschooling and review (even in 7th grade) doesn’t hurt!! I am excited to use Life of Fred—and I pray it’s a LASTING relationship!!! Love the price and the website. Thanks!

How is Life of Fred going for everyone? Are you supplementing it, or is it going fine without supplements? Just curious for next year. Thanks!

I've got two Life of Fred volumes, and Sprite has started Fractions. We've only done 3 chapters, but so far so good. She likes it! And although the problems are tough, there are only a handful of them. .-= Jimmie´s last blog ..First Real Book Report =-.

Thank you for this great review! I have had Life of Fred: Fractions on my wish list for a while now and was just about to order it. Your review made me that much more positive about ordering this series starting with the Fractions volume. .-= MangoMama´s last blog ..oy... it's been so long =-.

My daughter hated math until we discovered Life of Fred. Now, it is the first subject she grabs in the school day! It has really turned things around for her, (and me

My oldest is using this and LOVES it! He literally laughs out loud while he's reading his math lesson. No complaining about math this year. The verdict is still out on how much extra practice he will need if we continue the program. The Fractions book is mainly review for him so he's been doing well with it. Ditto on how wonderful the author is too. Very friendly and very helpful. .-= Kristen´s last blog ..The Amazing Bible Timeline =-.

Thanks for this review. I only hear good things about these books. The Life of Fred series is on my wishlist for 2010. It sounds like a perfect fit for my visual-spatial, creative daughter! .-= Jimmie´s last blog ..Hands-On Homeschool Carnival =-.
