Here’s a great infographic from Onlinecollege.org
Please share! The more people we can educate about autism and how it affects learning/education, the more success our loved ones with autism will have.
Tasty Thursday (instead of Tuesday ;-): Taco Bars
Here’s a recipe that I found on the internet a long time ago. I made it for dinner tonight, and the boys loved it.
Taco Bars
1 pound ground beef
1 package taco seasoning
2 tubes crescent rolls
1 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup salsa
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Brown ground beef; drain fat; add taco seasoning and prepare meat according to taco seasoning instructions.
Unroll one tube of crescent rolls, and place on bottom of 9×13 pan. Press seams together, and spread to cover the pan.
Bake in 375 degree oven until rolls just start to brown, about 6 minutes.
Cover pre-baked crescent rolls with beef, spread sour cream over the beef, top with salsa and cheese. Unroll second tube of crescent rolls, and place on top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes. Let set for 10 minutes before serving.
Time to get back in the saddle
Are you ready? I think I am.
Curriculum Review: Visual Latin from Timberdoodle
I’m currently reviewing the new product from Timberdoodle, called Visual Latin. As a member of Timberdoodle’s Blogger Review Team I received a free copy of the Visual Latin program: Lessons 1-10, in exchange for a frank and unbiased review.
Timberdoodle has a Facebook page, where you can stay up to date on all their latest curriculum and product offerings. You can also receive a free homeschool catalog at their main site.
Come back in a couple of weeks for my full review. I’m looking forward to this since I’m a certified foreign language teacher, and I’ve never used a computer/online component to teaching a language.
