AoPS Intro to Alg is supposed to be SPLIT?

I seem to notice that all the pros for school would likely also be pros for DE. DE would also mean he would also only need X semesters of history instead of X years of history. (And maybe also X semesters of writing instead of X years of writing, if necessary) He could also take upper-lrvel math like an intro to proofs or probability instead of having to retake a math class he already learned

Magic Treehouse has the "Merlin Missions" series which are meant for older/more advanced readers

ADHD-- I don't want to medicate
Malam replied to borninthesouth's topic in The Learning Challenges Board
You can try supplements, like Vayarin - it's a prescription phosphatidylserine-bound omega3 pill. Taking PS-bound DHA improves brain bioavailability compared to ordinary omega 3. I'd also suggest D3 and Magnesium. I recommend clarimag since it has both plus some other goodies. -
AoPS Intro to Alg is supposed to be SPLIT?
Malam replied to Brittany1116's topic in Accelerated Learner Board
Yes, you can definitely move on to C&P if your son wants to move in that direction before algebra 2. WTMA uses the Intro book after chapter 13 and some of the Intermediate book to make up their honors Algebra 2 course: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12WwhrH7Z8BPh24kZelazK2tpaE5Vand0Sf8Kj3zHYas/edit?usp=sharing and the also only go through chapter 13 in their honors Algebra 1 course: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bar66AI7jhbs7paOiFw9fw3KfGTxitaekfYwKYE-clM/edit -

Curriculum suggestions for my 11 year old daughter
Malam replied to Bryan B's topic in General Education Discussion Board
https://www.pandiapress.com/history-odyssey/ https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Physics-Understandable-Practical-Reality/dp/0935218084 You could probably use living books from the lists in some of these sources - they're light on math and probably accessible to an advanced middle schooler: -

https://usaco.guide/ is a great free resource for competitive programming, although I would suggest taking it after a thorough programming course like CS50

I think you should check with your country to make sure that AP CS principles would count toward the three required APs/Alevels/IBHLs Why not both?

Best book to use to study for the SAT and ACT
Malam replied to borninthesouth's topic in High School and Self-Education Board
Try UWorld for math -
You can get ebook versions at libgen.rs, also check bookfinder.com, some places have cheap shipping to canada. The DK super simple series are also pretty good overviews and Thinking Physics is great for physics at young ages - but I would second the recommendation for trade books

I think this depends on why the kids is taking the AP courses - if it's to improve their programming skill, then a python course like the one I linked can still be valuable

He could probably do AP CS P next year and do fine, it's an easy course meant for students who haven't coded at all yet. If you do choose to go self-paced, check out these courses: https://www.edx.org/xseries/harvardx-cs50-ap-computer-science-principles It should be a good challenge even if they already know how to program
