[quote=Anonymous]OK, here's my last novel!  It's about electives.

I'm kind of a depth over breadth person, and I think the point of electives is to discover things you love.  So, each of my kids picked a few things they want to study in depth this year.

My rising 5th grader chose taekwondo, which he'll do online because of covid, woodworking which he does with Dad (no curriculum), and cooking which he does we me (no curriculum)

My rising 7th grader chose learning to code in python which he'll do independently with this book

and chess, and competition math which he does with a tutor

My rising 8th grader chose taekwondo which he'll do online, fitness which he'll do with Dad (no curriculum) and music which he'll do with private instrument and theory classes online.

Ordinarily, I'd have my middle schoolers do Spanish, but both my 7th and 8th graders have special needs that eat into their time in different ways, and something had to give.  My 5th grader doesn't, and I thought about doing [b]Homeschool Spanish Academy[/b] with him, which is online and highly recommended by people I know, but we decided to wait and start in 6th.

I think lots of homeschool families either teach a language that they have a connection to (e.g. the parents' native language) or Latin.  But I don't have resources for those.  If I taught a language it would be Spanish, and so that all I researched.  [/quote]
