[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Health curricula for summer appears to be same/similar to what they learn in MS. It does not seem a lot of new topics or workload for the kids in summer school. I would like to see what others have to say.[/quote] Health is a LOT of busy work, with many small assignments to be completed between each online class period. With a standard school-year semester, many/most of those assignments would be done in class. For most kids, it’s not overwhelming, more tedious than anything else, but it does take up a chunk of time outside of class. [/quote] +1 Nonsensical amount of busy work with no new knowledge.[b] Sr still thought it was loads better than wasting a class slot.[/b][/quote] Especially for my kid with inattentive ADHD. Easy classes and no-brainer assignments are exponentially harder for them than challenging ones; but being able to stack those tasks and blow through them all at once, at a time when they felt focused, was a big help. For a while there it looked like it was possible Health B wouldn’t be available in summer/online in time for the Class of 2025 to take it, and I had visions of that one class tanking their 4.0.
