deemk Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 i follow WTM pretty closely and have for the past 4 years. but i have a 9th grader that has always struggled with getting his work done. putting him back in public school isn't an option in our town since it's so horrible. i've thought about a private school, but want to him to put forth some effort before we dump a bunch of money into something he isn't going to do. does anyone have any experience with a project-based curriculum at the high school level? i love WTM philosophies, but all the writing and reading just won't work for him. any ideas? :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie_0801 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Have you asked him what projects he'd like to do? Perhaps if you tell him how much writing you want, and how much in the way of projects you want, he'll come up with his own. Half the point of project based learning is that you are invested in it.

Guest Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Look at Oak Meadow or Laurel Springs Project-based plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
