Neat! Thanks for sharing the link!

Wonderful!

Thanks for the suggestion.

Yes, it is! :)

I would have outside testing to provide validation.

The base curriculum she has used is Henle. We supplement with things from Bolchazy Carducci. She benefits greatly from a grammar book they sell called Looking at Latin. It also has optional online exercises that accompany each page in the grammar book. It is the most engaging grammar text I have seen and has been quite helpful for her. I have purchased books for translation work from BC as well.

Excellent!

I will continue to pray for him!

We received our results! DD11 missed one on NLE II, so she now has two gold medals. Yeah!! :hurray:

My daughter who just turned 11 received her results from the NLE II exam. She only missed one, so she now has 2 gold medals under her belt. I am so proud of her diligence!

The Living Forest Series by Sam Campbell.

We are still waiting too! Does anyone know the breakdown for medals in terms of the scores for NLE II?

Lamplighter books.

I don't think so. You have things planned out really well. :)

NEAT!

I certainly understand not giving HS credit for classes which are not HS level. I was referencing HS course work which she is doing. My husband and I have no intention of our dc leaving home early, but I think our oldest dd will be doing predominantly CC work by the time she is "9th grade" age-wise. I suppose I am just bewildered about how to document her work. If they are looking for Algebra, Geometry, Trig, Bio... etc. on a HS transcript, it won't be there. Thank you for the clarification, and thank you for drawing my attention to Kathy's generous offer!

So, when you have a student working 4 grade levels up in work with testing to support that, it means nothing? Am I missing something here for those of us with gifted kids? Wow, that's discouraging.

Thanks for that information about Latin.

:iagree:

I try to incorporate the raw food diet into my routine, not exclusively by any means. I have learned to take the organic veggies (like broccoli which has a lot of bulk and texture) and blend them for a long time before adding the whey protein and organic berries. That has helped, but it took me a while to get the gag reflex under control due to the broccoli texture. I completely relate. I will say that having my raw food smoothie in the morning helps me tremendously, and I can drink it much faster than I could eat a plate of broccoli.

I don't think so. I would feel the same way.

This describes precisely how we were with our first dd. I planned things out for a semester, and we were done in two weeks. I agree with the other posts that you have to find what works for you and for your children. We have experienced, or shall I say, I have encountered a steep learning curve in teaching my children because of their profound abilities. What I thought school should look like rarely coincided with what actually happened. I am always deconstructing and then reconstructing. Even now (6 years into it), I struggle with the dynamic sometimes. Fortunately, my children don't. I think the best thing to do is for each family to find what works best for them and forget about what everyone else is doing. :001_smile:

Lukeion also has a Greek class.
