Brain-O-Magic Pleasanton Center
All parents want not only a great education for their children but also ability to apply that knowledge to everyday life. At Brain-O-Magic, our mission is to provide children the right tools to unlock their hidden potential. Not only will a child learn how to calculate at very high speeds as well as grow to not be intimidated by numbers, they will also exercise their brain in the process, which is very important to keep the brain healthy and active.
Unlike the curriculum taught in regular school that utilizes the left side of the brain, our program emphasizes usage of the usually dormant, right side of the brain. When both sides of the brain participate in a balanced manner, the learning and thinking process is greatly enhanced.
Free trials and demo sessions available at:

Community Average Scores – New way to measure homeschoolers performance
“Is my child’s performance good enough?” This question continually plagues the parents of homeschooled children including me. Over last few months, I have tried to explore several answers to this questions. I have made my son take chapter tests as well as periodic exams. However, I have found that scores sometimes can vary depending on evaluators. Standardized tests are another way and they can be expensive. Recently, I came across a very cool site and created an online learning account with IntelliSeeds (www.intelliseeds.com). I was intrigued with their concept of community average scores. Essentially, IntelliSeeds has several hundred practice and speed assessments for Math and Logical Reasoning. When my son does his practice, Intelliseeds generates a detailed report and compares my child’s score with a community average across all their user base. I have found this a neat and cost effective way to get a sense of my son’s performance. I can also compare the speed against an average. My son also enjoys it because it feels like he is playing a game.
I thought it might be worthwhile to share this with other parents.
