Homeschool Helps

Good for you, Lynn. Home schooling is the only way you can assure that your children learn what they should (and don't learn what they should not).

Lynn, I am developing an online course that your eighth-grader might find fascinating.

I am developing a course in the history of art and architecture around the world. I would be very interested in working with a small group of homeschoolers to have them assist in the further development of the course.

This could be a year-long project and together we could choose to work with a particular art history book. It would be interactive and the students would learn from doing the research that would go in each micro-lesson. Another thing about the micro-lesson is that part of the work of learning would come from producing something in the way of art inspired by what they had just learned. a student could do something as simple as a painting or as complex as building a ziggurat out of toothpicks or whatever material they would like to use.

Another thing that might have been instantly connect together on skype.
