N F 5 D

Hello! When my husband didn't get his call sign for a website, he set this one up for me. For those who don't know what a call sign is, NF5D is the name of my ham radio station, or it would be, if I had a ham radio station. My husband finally did get his call sign for a website. It's AE5D dot com.

Here is a collection of Spanish words I compiled and sorted into categories based on the Hasbro/Milton Bradley board game of Scattergories. (The Table of Contents is in two forms: organized or numerical order.) Here it is arranged alphabetically with no categories.

To the 27 Book Reports I have posted, I now add (July 2009) and highly recommend Diary of a Man in Despair, written by Frederick Reck-Melleczewen in Germany between 1936 and 1944.

We have posted our homeschool report cards, if you'd care to have a look. Homeschool parents customize their teaching to their children, so this is not meant as a guideline - only what we did. They are from the second six weeks of the third grade, October 10, 1994, when we started homeschooling, to when he graduated from high school, May 22, 2004. As the Texas Home School Coalition T-shirt says, "I home school in Texas . . . where people are free!" The only stipulations are that we must teach the three R's and good citizenship and use books, which a bona fide homeschooler would do anyway.

For any who are curious about what happened when I went to teach at the local public high school after homeschooling for ten years, read
A Peek into the Public Schools,
My Personal Teaching Experience,
and Testimony of My Trial at the Public Schools.
