Just wondering...

2006-09-12 07:56:17 · 56 answers · asked by Dooosh 2

I'm new to homeschooling and still want a fairly rigorous education. I'd like contact with teachers to be good, as well as have asignments easily sent and viewed. I also don't wan't to waste time with unnecessary required courses. I'm also looking for adequate math (precalc or calc) classes. And most importantly, the school should be well-recognized by colleges/universities. Any suggestions for a different indepedent study/homeschooling high school that you really liked? thanks!

I'm recently divorced and almost 40 and don't have any children. I am considering the possibility of becoming a single parent and am wondering if this pretty much dooms me to sending my child to public school. Is there anyone out there who has managed to home school as a single parent? I'm not even sure I want to home school, but public school was not good to me and I want to look at my options.

Is there any good books for ages 9 and up that has horses in it and the chapter books. I love horses so much but never petted a horse and never seen a horse close up. I also want a book that has kids that have special needs and kids in foster homes.
By the way i have a 4th grade reading level so that is why i like reading these lower level books, and they are more interesting to me.

My friend Deborah runs a Web site about homeschooling and literature and she publishes anicdotes people send in about cute things their kids said related to knowledge and education. Do any of you who homeschool have cute stories like that you'd like to share? If you do I'll see if she will put them on her Web site so that all homeschoolers can see them. You can either post stories here or send them straight to her Web site at:

http://www.wordsonus.com/feedback/feedback.html (Select "Out of the Mouths of Babes -- that's what she calls the column)

I really appreciate it, she didn't ask me to but I want to help her site get fun material.

I homeschool my children and would like to join a support group. My problem is is that all the support groups that I find are religion based. I am thinking of joining them even though I am Agnostic. My only concern is that I do not want to be preached to. I know they are good people, but sometimes they seem not to be able to help themselves.

Just thought it'd be cool to share as home educators what books our children are enjoying, public and private schoolers may reply too as well as their parents. My 12yo ds learned the formula for PI from "Archimedes and the Door To Science" as well as numerous other types of math and he really desires to learn more geometry and algebra because of that book. Right now he is enjoying "The Mystery of the Periodic Table", it has inspired to learn both within and outside the book the science of chemistry. He loved all the "Harry Potter" novels. My 8yo dd loves "Handbook of Nature Study" by Anna Comstock, "The Secret Garden", and now she too is enjoying the "Harry Potter" series and she adores the classic "Secret of the Woods" by William Long. Both really like to read living books that bring life to history, biographies, sciences, etc....

What books have not only inspired your children but have also helped develop within your child(ren) a natural love for learning?
