[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a certificate to teach elementary and my oldest is profoundly gifted. I really toyed with the idea of homeschooling but in the end going to school is just way too valuable an experience. Instead we chose a selective, progressive private school and we after school. It’s the best of both worlds. We’ve done story of the world and classical conversations—way too Christian centered by the way. Life of Fred, worldly wise, Miquon, AoPS—which by the way isn’t enough by itself. Chess club, Mel science kits, and just diving deep in interested topics. My oldest blossomed at school. That is the best way to describe it. The academic stuff is done at home, but you cannot replicate what is going on at school at home.[/quote]

Glad you found a system that works for you! I think that is what every parents needs to do, particularly when you have kids with exceptional learning needs.

We don't do classical conversations either, and we just have to do a bit of work to get some of those school opportunities like chess club, but we make it happen.[/quote]
