jamajo Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'm not sure I know what you mean by programming. By scheduling do you daily activities or daily work load? If my input is not what you are looking for just let me know. My 9th grader's curriculum has taken the guess work out of the daily schedule. Bible, History, and Literature is all planned out as a checklist of readings and activites to be done. Coop Science has a 36 week lesson plan with daily readings scheduled. My dd does labs with other students at coop once a week. Two hour art lessons once a week help dd explore her passion for art. PE includes a junior volleyball league that we plan to participate in all year (2 hour practice once a week). I like the balance of independent work and outside activities. I spend most of my time with my 9th grader teaching Algebra and correcting problems, discussing ideas regarding what she is learning and assisting with writing skills. The way we school has a lot to do with my daughter's learning style and how she works best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibraryLover Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 (edited) Programming= what programs do you use? What books, curric etc. :) I mean everything you would consider ideal for a 'regular' 14/15 yr old. What are you using? What is your schedule? What are your hopes, even? :) Edited October 16, 2013 by LibraryLover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
