[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 433197, member: 1233"] I have (and am) homeschooling very different ages/grades. With difficult child it was grades three and four, J was the first few months of first grade and grades six through probably 12 (in 10 now), and thank you never so far. Our approach has been to evaluate it every semester to see if it is still the right approach for that specific child. J's first gr homeschooling was because there was a group of boys in her kdg class that were working together, in an organized manner, to pull a girl into the coatroom while the teacher and aide were busy handling some of the boys fighting or misbehaving in other ways. They molested the first girl they managed it with - and the school found there was little they could do because they couldn't expel kids that young even though they had no IEP or other plans making accommodations for them. That was at the end of kdg, and no way was she going into a class with them and just a teacher - no aide - the next year. If you search online for homeschooling resources you will find a TON of things that are for all sorts of ages, and range from free to expensive. I have used kwiznet,com quite a lot with Jess. She likes being able to do as many problems as she needs, or as few as ten problems, to make sure she grasps a concept in math. We used the math and reading programs, and are going to get a few others set up in a week or two. [/QUOTE]
