Questions-

Which math course is your son enjoying? I missed it if you already mentioned it somewhere.

My kids all took to reading like ducks to water, so we never used any formal program for reading. Writing is a whole other beast though, and we could certainly stand to do more in that area. So far I have resisted paying for any formal program, other than grammar and vocabulary workbooks. Both my school age kids can write beautifully when they are motivated, as in preparation for a homeschool group report. My horse crazy daughter finds a way to weave horses into every state and country we study, and my son enjoys finding esoteric trivia to spotlight. But both are less comfortable with the art then I would like, and it would be nice to close the gap a bit between their input and output. My goal this year is to get my 11 year old really typing and then I will probably sign him up for an online writing course.

I wish I had a clue about online language arts for younger kids. Sorry, Q!
