jetzmama Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Wondering if anyone here has left the Classical Conversations Challenge levels, and if so, where did you land? Did you choose a curriculum package approach (i.e. Sonlight, MFW)? Maybe online learning (i.e. VP Ominbus, TPS)? Local co-op? Eclectic? Looking for something rigorous, but not consuming. Challenge was both of these. Also looking for something that is gospel saturated. Does not need to be Classical. Classical is great, but so is CM. Or an eclectic mix. How do I not replicate the consuming nature of Challenge, but provide enough rigor that the kids are not bored with a more relaxed curriculum? And preserve own sanity simultaneously? :tongue_smilie: For the record, I am not ready to discuss why we are considering leaving the program. We're still sitting on that fence. There may be a time to thoughtfully explore that, but the time is not now. Perhaps later, depending on which side of the fence we land on. Thanks for understanding and for your help.

dauphin Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Following. We have detoured prior to A. I am planning a largely WTM based arrangement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in VA Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Well we didn't find Challenge to be much of a Challenge so we left. We ended up with Omnibus for a few years and then Biblioplan which is where we are now. (the Challenge child has graduated). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetzmama Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 Thanks for your responses! Still figuring. Have never looked at Biblioplan. Will add that to my list, as well as a review of WTM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori D. Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Following. Dauphin, there are a number of detailed responses in Jetzmama's x-post on the high school board here, in case you were interested. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
