 DE> I started off with the comprehensive curriculum also.  Now I have
 DE> added several other things to it to make a more involved school day.
 
 I use it just as a base study.  Our finances will be straightened out very
 very soon and I intend on investing on other programs I liked, but could
 not afford.
 DE> I think I am going to keep my son home.  It seems to work better
 DE> for him to not have to have as many changes in his day.  He has
 DE> problems dealing with transition.
 I'm kinda glad.  I don't like to push homeschooling on people (you never
 know what their circumstance may be or what they can handle) but I prefer
 it.
 DE> We attend a homeschool resource center which keeps track of the
 DE> kids and pays for curriculum.  It is through a nearby school district
 DE> and has really helped with keeping us on task.  We have to record 20
 DE> hours per week of school work and turn in time sheets.  We meet with a
 DE> teacher every 45 days to go over the children's learning plans and
 DE> modify them when needed.  We also keep some completed assignments in a
 DE> portfolio kept at the school.  They have a computer lab there where the
 DE> kids can use internet and lots of software.  It's a really good program
 DE> for us. I have found it very helpful.  I can talk to the teachers there
 DE> any time I need some assistance and they help out.  Katie has even made
 DE> her own web page with a report she did on Mozart.  She will continue to
 DE> add to the page as she finishes reports on other composers and the
 DE> countries they were born in.  We have been enjoying unit studies right
 DE> now and it has been working well for us.  I never thought I could do a
 DE> unit study, but I find it very simple and exciting.
 I wouldn't mind more support from a district like this, but then again I
 hate people butting in so I may find this a little too restrictive.
