I am looking for Homeschool Co ops in the OC, I have found some, but I am sure there is a lot more that are not advertised etc...Are there any Catholic Co ops? my kids attend a Christian Co op and are happy there, but it would be nice to know if there are Catholics Co ops. But, we are contemplating a move to the OC and I would like to be prepare if possible. My kids go twice a week to their Co op and attend classes from 8:30 to 3:00, same subjects both of the days they attend. We homeschool Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I hope this is enough info, and someone can help me out here. Thanks!

Congrats! To Excel one needs to realize one's own flaws...not everyone, especially your age group is able to do that. You will catch up in no time, again, Congratulations!

Thanks! I'll continue to wait...

If any of you are subscribe to Sharenet, when will the next Newletter be coming in via email? I sent a email by August 22nd and haven't received the Newsletter yet. Anyone can help me with this? Thanks!

Thanks for the input, I have never heard of TT, so don't know what to do...

I want the book to be the source of instruction, because they way the lessons are explained in his book are short, not in depth. So, I cannot explain it to him, because it's really not explained in the book.

Hi, My son who I used to Homeschool, is now in PS and really struggling with Pre Algebra, the book being used is Holt McDouggal Larson Pre Algebra. What book can I use at home to tutor him? When we were homeschooling we were doing Saxon 76 (6th grade) would Saxon 1/2 help me tutor him with the book he has right now? I apologize if I am not in the right Forum to ask this question, need guidance. Thanks!

I too, like Lolly stop homeschooling, and enroll my ds 12 in PS. I was stressing out with HS, but now I wish I was Homeschooling again...School does not solve this problem, it has made it worse, b/c they basically waste time from 8-3PM and then, come home to do HW. DS has been in MS (7) grd since August, truly considering pulling him out at the end of 7th grade. He loves the socialization, but maybe co op or something where he can interact, don't know....very frustrated,

Anyone can share with me the level difference between Saxon 6/7 and Calvert Math 6th grade? Are they the same in context? or one is harder than the other one? meaning more advance.

Here is your quote Beth.

Anyone here using CVA? Would like to know the pros and cons if there are any? Suggestions? What type of a child works out with Calvert? How independent it can be? The school I mean. Thanks in advance for your input

Thanks, there is a lot more out there than I though :)

The age range is 8 years, going into 3rd grade. Thanks for all the info

Hi, thought I am still homeschooling, I am curious to know if there are any websites out there for after school, where one can reinforce grammar.

You may find the TM in either of both of these websites below, I found my TM here for $12. http://www.fes.follett.com/index.cfm http://www.abebooks.com/?cm_mmc=ggl-_-US_AbeBooks_Brand-_-Website-_-abebooks.com&gclid=CI3T3omYlKMCFQ5O2godsi0qqg

I usually think I'm the only one in the world having these types of days! I just keep asking myself? How do people do it? I've been having let's say a terrible school year...last week and this week have been a piece of cake. Wonder why?

Has anyone done both Vogages and Rod and Staff? can you give me your opinion? are they the same? or are they different? if so how?

Thank you Garga, I did had him seem for ADHD, but guess what? he ended up being gifted instead...:001_huh:

:lol: You made me burst in laughter, thank you, I needed it!

I tried this, and it's not working either...

His 10, and I'm with you, I've already taken something he likes, and does not work...

10, almost 11. 5th grade.

My ds is so unmotivated, he takes ages to finish his work, especially Math, and then the "careless mistakes" it's driving me insane. Is it the age? or the fact that he's a boy? Please help, I am at my ropes end... :confused:

Rod & Staff is pretty good.
