I LOVE all the names! It's nice to know I'm not the only one who would like to name our "school." You all have some great names! I thought it was tough to choose before, now I REALLY need to get...

Sounds like a cool idea. My daughter is 11 and has selective mutism. She often texts me things she doesn't feel comfortable saying in person. It has really opened our line of communication.

I'm very interested! I think it sounds great! I can't wait to sign up!

I'd like to name our "school"/learning environment. I was thinking of something like "mom's school of life" or our last name with academy after, or something. I figured you all would have great...

Lots of great ideas so far. We are going in September and I'd love to incorporate a little "school" in our trip. This is our first year homeschooling and I'm SO NOT creative. What are the "passports"...

Thank you all! I really thought I wanted the hard copy but now I think the online version will be best for us.

We've decided to go with moving beyond the page for DD's 6th grade curriculum. This is our first year so I have no clue what I like/don't like yet. We will be doing the 10-12 curriculum only version...

We'll be homeschooling next year after several years of public school. I remember reading somewhere in my original research about homeschooling that you must submit a letter of intent to homeschool...

Well, her sentences are very choppy. She does not seem to go into much detail, and she tends to repeat herself. I'd like her to learn to express herself more, and elaborate. My hope is that she will...

My 11 year old who is an exceptional learner has a hard time expressing herself. She was diagnosed with selective mutism and is in therapy.

At the start of last year she was reading at a 7th...

Hi, I just wanted to say that we are in the same boat! DD will be in 6th grade next year and it is our first year HS as well. Good luck! I look forward to hearing about how things are going since I'm...

Thank you all so much for your ideas! I'm so happy I found this forum!

Well, she doesn't really sit for long, and I don't let her on the computer because she cannot focus! I worry she'll do more damage than good! I like all of the ideas so far. I guess what I'm really...

My 3 year old has one more year of preschool before starting kindergarten. I'd really like to homeschool her but I'm terrified that I will not give her what she needs. I'll be homschooling my oldest...

Can someone compare (or contrast) the two? I was totally sold on MBTP for my "gifted" but "hard headed", "lazy" learner, but then I read about CTT. Now I'm torn. She's an excellent reader, but can...

I was coming to ask the same questions and this was the thread most recently commented on! I too have a 10 year old daughter who will be finishing 5th grade in public school and beginning homeschool...

It sounds like she'll be starting 6th grade next year! Thanks for all of your input. I never thought about possible consequences to finishing early.

Plus, we really try hard to reward effort...

I know to some this is an unnecessary detail, but to my daughter and me who know nothing but PS it is somewhat important.

We will be starting homeschool next September. DD is currently in the...

WOW! This is exactly what I'm looking for. Is there specific curriculum that helps you with this. I'm worried I'm just not that creative. I've been looking into MBTP and I *think* I like the way they...

Thank you all for your thoughts. It seems like once I *think* I know where to start, I get even more confused! :grin: So is it fair to say that I should first find the curriculum I'm interested in...

Hello, I will begin homeschool DD who will be going into 6th grade next year. She is in the "learners with exceptional abilities program." She has an IQ of 137, and is currently at a 7th grade...

Hi! My name is Cicily. I am mommy to almost 10 month old Lucas, 3 year old Layla, and 10 year old Paisley. Paisley will be going into 6th grade next year and has expressed a desire to be homeschooled...
