I have an older daughter, 13, so I'm always scouting around for great homeschooling blogs with older students. And it looks like I have just found another one! <br />Chemistry is just around the corner... we are starting the periodic table this year. I hope there is a co-op in our area by the time the heavy duty stuff roles around!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9116521388436228742.post-42816610348284310342009-10-13T13:35:10.223-05:002009-10-13T13:35:10.223-05:00Jsut realized that you are using IEW's SWI C. ...Jsut realized that you are using IEW's SWI C.

War of the Worlds was ok, but it was one of the few pieces of literature where I actually enjoyed the movie better than the book. Uber is just starting on 1984 - - the Orwell classic. I loved that one in school.

We're about spilt. People who are happy when I bring in a classic and people who groan.<br /><br />Burning Mg, now there's an experiment. Do you get to watch?

Maybe until middle school or high school. I really, really want to read it!<br /><br />As for the math and science, I don't understand either! That is part of why I'm homeschooling. ;-)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing. On the one hand, I look forward to Gavin being 14, 15, 16... On the other hand, I'm hoping it doesn't happen TOO quickly! But I see what your son does, and I get all excited about the future.
