Re: returning to HOD after one year of public high school ?

Children tend to put friends before family when in a public school atmosphere and it's a difficult battle to deal with due to peer/social dependence. I think it's a heart issue with kids more than a school issue and the heart issue would have to be dealt with first. [/quote] Yes, that is a problem ...

Re: returning to HOD after one year of public high school ?

Sorry I wasn't clear. The goal is to bring them home and continue with HOD through graduation, have them get a job, and save for college. They, however, want to continue going to school because they really enjoy it and it is easy . My complaint is that I am not satisfied with the education they are ...

returning to HOD after one year of public high school ?

This is a difficult post to write, and I'm sure I won't be able to ask all of my questions the first time around, so a little background first. We have homeschooled from the beginning, and as my ID indicates, since LHFHG. Last fall I put my oldest three in public HS. I needed to spend time with my y...

Re: Honors or AP for high school

Wondering if there are any posts or ideas on making any of these high school courses Honors or AP? I had to type up my dd's transcript from WG before she tranfered to public high school, and I was astonished at the amount of work she did under that program. When the counselor looked at my list of b...

Re: sociology is required in my state

I just confused myself. I typed in graduation requirements for the high school in my district, and that is their requirement. It is not a state requirement.

Sorry to take up board space on this.

sociology is required in my state

I was looking at our state requirements and was surprised to see that they now require .5 in Sociology under Social Studies in order to graduate from high school. Does HOD offer sociology?

times for the high school boxes

My oldest did World Geography and her days were long. I am curious how long it takes to do the World History, US History 1, and US History 2. Could someone please link me to the times assigned to the boxes for these guides?

Thanks!

Re: HOD Highschool Questions?

*Have you found R&S 7 and 8 to be high school worthy in the actual use of these texts with a High school student? The 8th grade text looks very worthy to me for college prep, but what did you think once you actually had used it with that age group? UGH,yes!!!! :D We did WG this year, and half of R&...

Video text algebra

My oldest just finished WG and did Foersters Algebra. It didn't really click as she couldn't retain the information, along with medical issues on top of that. Could anyone share their experience with Video Text Algebra? I'd really like her to nail Algebra before she gets into chemistry.

Thanks.
