It sounds as though your boys are working ahead of grade level and part of the problem may be that you need to keep them busy. I have one of those, she's 5, and I have one who would benefit from a very strict schedule, he's 12. How on earth do you pull something like this off with your age ranges/needs? I'm trying to imagine how I'd do something like this because I lose one or more if my youngest needs something (he's rather a lot of work). If I'm doing one on one work with any one of them, the rest take brain vacations. I've wondered about a mass ADHD diagnosis (for me, too) and then about how I could clone myself..... :rolleyes:

As the kids get older, I'm thinking about how to broaden the home library and wonder about the courses from The Teaching Company. How do you use their materials? Do you find that an accelerated kid is more likely to get into them? Does the whole family like them? Are they mostly for you? Do you purchase them or borrow them (library)? TIA.
