Erica, do you mean that you plan to begin homeschooling them next year? If so, I would think that that could out well for you. I’d reach out directly to CC to ask for their opinion as well.

They are public schooled.

I have 9 year old, 12 year old. I am considering the challenge program for my kids this next year. Neither of them have any experience in CC. My 12 year old just finished 6th grade in a private school. He is mostly A student with some high Bs. Should he do a year of foundations and essentials first and then go to the Challenge program or can he just jump into the Challenge program now?
Should the 9 year old do both Foundations and Essentials or just the Essentials his first year?
Thank you guys.

“…the U.S. states and buy steroids online capitals, territories…”
buy steroids online?
What in the world happened there? Thought you would want to know.

]]> By: Heidi https://simplehomeschool.net/classical-conversations-an-introduction/#comment-523277 http://simplehomeschl.wpengine.com/?p=8276#comment-523277 I am totally new to even LOOKING into CC–and I am in my 21st year of homeschooling. The kids I would want to target for this would next year be in 7th and 10th grade, as well as a non-verbal/lower-functioning child–who is 9 but only learning some letters and numbers. Is there anyway to combine a lot of the stuff for all three? I work part-time–I cannot see this working well if I have to be spread between those three (as well as an adult disabled child living at home who operates at about a 5 year old level).

ANY suggestions are appreciated!

Did you stick with it? I’ve been reading the well trained mind and about cc I’m very interested in it for my children. They are not yet school age, but I’m trying to learn since time seems to fly!
