What are you using for LA? I am very interested in pros and cons of any curriculum you have used.. We are using Abeka in 9th grade this year and are not really thrilled with it and want something strong for next year. DS is college bound so we want a very good foundation in LA. Thank you and Happy New Year!

We are planning to use RS - Latin American Level 1 this year with my 9th grader. The homeschool edition says it will take 2 years to complete. I find that difficult to believe and have never heard that before. I would appreciate all input - anyone used this - how long did it take you? Also any other pros / cons would be welcomed. I posted this in the high school forum, but thought many of you may have already completed this as well. Thank you,

I have heard wonderful success stories from parents that have used this writing curriculum and would like to try it. My ds is going into 9th grade and we already have a very full schedule and it seems to be quite time consuming. Can the IEW C take the place of a high school english class? How would it be listed on their transcript? I understand some use the program for 2 years; how would credit be issued for that scenario & how would it be listed on a transcript? I would love to hear any suggestions how to incorporate this program without it taking too much time. Thank you so much.

Anyone used Colonial-Williamsburg Electronic Field Trips

I see that some are past; according to the website you have archive access. If these are available on PBS, what are we getting for the $49? -
Anyone used Larry Burkett books

Thank you. I understand Dave Ramsey is offering his products on Homeschool Buyers Co-op this month. I better check it out. -
What is your opinion of the content of his books for teens concerning investing / business? What other products have you used for this subject and liked? Thanks for your input.

We are planning to use Konos - you can utilize only the parts that are of interest to you. Their history program offers many options / activities. -
Hakim's History of US & TC History of the United States
dopeyfav replied to dopeyfav's topic in K-8 Curriculum Board
I am using Hakim as the base and want to supplement with the TC videos. I have not been able to coordinate them to flow together & was just wondering if anyone else has had success with this. Maybe someone out there will share how they accomplished this!! -
Do you subscribe to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine?

I enjoy the magazine - just find it difficult to find time to read all of it!!! -

Wow - thanks to all of you for your suggestions. Has anyone used anything by Larry Burkett? -
I want to do a finance class with my teen and would like to hear suggestions / comments. What curriculum / books did you use? How long did it take? Was it worth the time and effort? All other comments are welcomed. Thank you in advance for your input.
