  1. I'm thinking of switching my son from TT. He struggled with their Algebra 1 but I think mostly because of the way it taught. I'm thinking of switching to something else for Geometry but he has college goals and I want him to be prepared well for that. He's an average student that I think with the proper teaching would do just fine. I was looking at Denison and like some of the aspects of it but have heard it's might not be up to par. I'd like to hear from someone with experience going to college. Thanks 🙂
  2. My son wants to take courses that would be ncaa approved in case he decides to play ball in college. He's not interested in anything science related. I just want to be sure the courses he takes would likely be college prep so it would be approved by ncaa. He's in 10th grade this year. He's been homeschooled all his life but wanted to try public high school. It lasted for 5 weeks and wanted to come home. Now I'm trying to come up with courses for him.
  3. Or any of the "Friendly" courses. I'm looking a a college prep that is budget friendly and easy to implement and easy to understand. This looks good by my son wants to be sure it would prepare him if he wants to go to college. He's in 10th grade. Thanks!
  4. My DD is currently in 11th grade and is half way through Teaching Textbooks 7 (she has ADHD inattentive). I'm looking for ideas to help her be at a good place after she graduates next year. Should I just continue with TT and let her just finish wherever she gets to? Switch to an online course that can evaluate what she's understanding and what she needs more help on like Aleks or CTC? She has anxiety so me teaching her doesn't work well. We've tried that in the past. A computer course (not live) is what we've found to work best. Or is there something else that would help her with real world math that I'm unaware of to be able to function well after she graduates? Please help!
  5. How did they get the computer skills class? I'd like them to learn more computer but I don't know enough myself.
  6. I have 3 high schooler. I'm needing some ideas what to do for electives. I'd like to find some courses they'd enjoy while doing the things they need. I'm having a hard time coming up with ideas. So please let me know what you are doing or have done in this area. Only 1 of the 3 might be college bound so I'm hoping for ideas that could help them with life in the future 🙂
  7. What percentage do you give for daily work vs quiz/test to calculate a grade?
  8. Is Lantern English video or do they read the lessons? I'm hoping to find something that they can watch to learn instead of just read.
  9. I have a 9th and 11th grader who was doing English work with someone that needs to quick mid year. I'm now stuck looking for English programs for them. They are not advanced and I need something that does everything because I can't take on the English/writing/literature because this is the one area I can't do. Please help wit mid year ideas and how to get through this. I'm desperate!
  10. My 11th grader is interested in learning business this year because he's into skateboarding and wants to see about starting a business. Do you have any business curriculum ideas? I got one off Amazon by Carol Topp but not sure it's going to do the trick. Any suggestions are appreciated :)

  12. Does Fix-it-Grammar teach or is it for students who alread know and are just reviewing?
  13. Yeah, I feel like I've done all sorts of gramar workbooks but it's not sinking in
  14. I have 3 kids in 8th, 9th and 10th. 2 of which have ADHD and really struggle with learning. All 3 reallly need help with grammar and puctuation. I've tried Analytical Grammar and got through the 1 section of 3 ( I could still go back to this if it's really the only option). I've also tried Easy Grammar plus which was a bust. They really didn't remember anything when it came time for the test. Any thoughts?
  15. Yes, he could use help with the different forms of writing before we move to literature and history based. Would you have suggestions for writing across literature and history that could give her some structure to work off of. Like I said she's a great writer just needs direction.
  16. I'm looking for a writing program that would be easy to pull off long distance. I'm not good a writing but I have a daughter that lives out of state that writes beautifully. I'm looking for something that could guide her with some structure to teach my DS (10th grade). She can facetime and share a google docs for the writing assignments. Some of the books I've seen seem like it wouldn't work on the day to day assignments. Any suggestions?
