[display_name id=”0″]REAL homeschooling is not online schools…it really is just an excuse…real homeschooling is having your kids learn at their own pace, learning at your kids rate, mostly through subjects that interest them. What state are you in? That will help. Many states can’t mind their own business, but some can. In florida my kids teach themselves. They learn mostly through subjects that they’re interested in. They watch science shows on tv for science, biographies and such for history. They do have to do a math class, but that is it.
Www.time4learning.com is online, doesn’t go through the school districts, and is animated and such. It’s a relaxed example to homeschooling. No teacher, just fun. You could try that. It’s $20 a month. If you’re looking for workbooks, there is www.abeka.com but that is fairly fast…..are you looking for Christian? I would just take a year to relax, deschool your son, and get a chance to see what ‘he’ likes, and how he learns. Not everyone learns through textbooks…don’t think my kids have ever learned through one. You could take classes at OMSI or the zoo. ….what is he interested in? If your answer is nothing, than you probably need to deschool. He ‘has’ interests, the school has probably just snubbed them out as ‘unimportant’ …he’ll find them again. Lmk if you need anything else! My kids have always been unschooled (okay, more eclectic)…it can be fun! Good for you for not forcing your child to go through public school (even if he has been kicked out, there are alternative schools)..most parents don’t want to take the time.:)

Online Christian School or Home School Curriculum?Interested in seeing which Christian online schools or home school curriculum are highly recommended for elementary students. Thanks!

[display_name id=”0″]Online Christian homeschools are not highly recommended for elementary-age children. It is better for them to have real books, paper, pencils, and interaction with a teacher/parent. Children tend to not do well with an online program.
The Christian home school curriculum that I recommend is:
My Father’s World
Sonlight
Beautiful Feet Study Guides
Apologia Science
A Reason for Handwriting
Copywork for Boys/Girls
How Great Thou Art
Math-U-See
AL Abacus Math
Learning Language Art Through Literature
Rod & Staff (especially the little workbooks for little kids, and Health)
These are my favorites for my kids. You should look at these and others and find something that looks interesting and fun for your kids.

Best way to homeschool myself?For high school? Curriculum? Online schools? How to get into college homeschooling?

[display_name id=”0″]Most online schools aren’t traditional homeschooling. They are correspondence programs which provide the materials and schedule you follow much like regular schools, but done at home instead of in a classroom. There is very little flexibility. However, they usually provide record keeping services which can help when it’s time to issue transcripts. Each program is different in what they teach, enrollment procedures, requirements, etc so contact the programs you are interested in directly to find that out.

Traditional homeschool has your parents as the primary teacher. They pick the curriculum and materials you study based upon your budget, learning style, needs, and interests. It could be traditional textbooks, workbooks, computer programs, dvd’s, activities, even private lessons, or some combination.

You’d just apply for college regular way. Take the ACT or SAT tests. You would design a transcript detailing what you learned when. Be as detailed as possible.

EDIT: Some curriculum providers offer full programs with all subjects in a kit. A lot of these companies also offer record keeping service for an additional fee. (this may be referred to as an umbrella program or correspondence study instead of homeschool by some purists, but don’t worry about that) Examples of these companies include Christian Light Education, Sonlight, Abeka, and Bob Jones.

There are also companies that specialize in just a single subject such as math, reading, or science. Most of the companies mentioned above also allow you to order just individual subjects rather than the full package, but you can’t be part of their record keeping program if you do. (Calvert is an exception. You must do the full package only with them.) This allows you to pick and choose among companies to custom design a program to fit your needs, interests, and budget. That is what I do. Rainbow Resource is a terrific homeschool supply store for getting books, workbooks, kits, and other materials.
