Kriston, Thanks for your reassurance with the homeschooling. I love some aspects of it but really hate not knowing what if any progress we are making. I have the Hirsch book and flipped through it. The LA is very vague and that is DS6s weak spot. I looked into the Michael Clay Thompson series for that, Singapore for math, and the rest from the library. But I spend a lot of time trying to figure it out. DS6 loves the computer so naturally that would be a good avenue. How do you tell the difference between "public school online" and "independent work"?
