I have a 6th grader on paper, but he started so young he's more like a 5 1/2 grader! Math: Life of Fred working up to fractions (he finished TT 4/5 so we are solidifying "all the maths" before we dive into the world of algebra in 7th/8th) Khan Academy 15-20 min daily Miquon Math Purple book for review and critical thinking Language Arts: Daily Grams Writing with Ease 4 followed by IEW TBD Bible and History: MFW 1850-Modern Times Made for Work PE: jiu jitsu swim kids get dirty in the 'hood Science: TBD Service: 1x/week taking care of horses at a local rescue Charter School Classes: Hands on Science Lab Humanities (SoTW 3 projects) Writing Workshop Fitness (basically scooter/skateboard to the beach while learning anatomy and physiology.

This topic has been insightful as I will have my first 7th grader come fall. I've been most interested in the science choices and trends, but remain undecided in that category. Thanks to all who have posted! Bible and History: MFW 1850s to Modern Times Made for Work Language Arts: Fix it! Grammar Daily Grammar or Easy Grammar IEW US History Based Writing followed by one of these: IEW Following Narnia, Rockets, Radars and Robots or How to Write a Story Science: TBD but this year I will give him a few choices and let him decide Math: I am finally doing what I've always wanted to, but was afraid to fully jump so far from the regular way of doing things. I've been a math nerd and tutor for almost 20 years, so I can hang with most programs an make them work for any kid, but I want math to be thorough AND fun!: Life of Fred Decimals, Fractions & Percents, PreAlgebra 0,1,2 (and continue if he finishes and understands all the math in these before the year is up) Khan Academy 15-20 min daily PE: jiu jitsu swim kids get dirty in the 'hood Charter school enrichment classes: Literature Enrichment Writing Workshop Industrial Arts Entrepreneurship Multimedia Performance Art Chess

Yup- the post was there. Probably just a weird glitch. I'm glad this thread was here. I'd never have thought to just simply check if it was posted. Thanks, again!

I keep getting kicked out as well, but I will go search the forum and see if it posted anyway! Thanks for the tip!!

Perfect timing for the curriculum we are putting together for next year! Thanks a million! :)
