Three Ways To Choose An Online School 8th Grade Curriculum

10/17/2020

0 Comments

 
​Students enrolled in accredited online homeschool programs are exposed to quality curriculum that teaches every subject through a process that builds from one grade to the next. The purpose is to prepare students for the next year with repetitive assignments, certified instruction and exams that test their knowledge and build their confidence. When the student is in early elementary school, the parent can be the primary teacher with the help of the daily lesson planner and the teacher’s guide. As they transition to the online portal, professional instructors can share the responsibility and one of the first subjects they take as part of the online school 8th grade curriculum is math.

Three Ways 2nd Grade Homeschool Curriculum Information Supports Homeschoolers

10/17/2020

0 Comments

 
Online homeschool programs are designed to provide families with quality curriculum for every grade as well as enrollment options that work best with the student’s learning ability. In addition, the support system should be friendly, consistent and reliable so parents have confidence that they are not going on this journey without assistance. This is especially important for families who are just starting out and have young children that they are teaching using the print curriculum. Older students are able to work ontheir assignments in the portal and have a direct connection to teachers for asking questions and getting instruction; but, younger 2nd grade students use physical textbooks and are reliant on their parents for instruction.

How Technology Has Transformed Online Homeschool Programs?

10/16/2020

0 Comments

 
​Several decades ago, homeschooling was limited to a small number of families across the country because of the newness of the concept, the various state restrictions and the time commitment required from the parents. There weren’t a lot of formal programs and so most families created their own curriculum by purchasing textbooks directly from the publishers. Parents were the full-time teacher and they became experts in all subjects especially if they had several classes in different grades. For many reasons, homeschooling did not start growing in popularity until recently.  Emerging technology is one of the factors behind the growth of online homeschool programs.

Critical Skills for 21st Century Middle Schoolers

10/16/2020

0 Comments

 
​Traditional education is divided into three main sections: elementary school, middle school and high school. The goal of any quality backed learning institution is to help students develop the skills appropriate for their age level so they are prepared to advance to the next school year  and finally to enter adulthood. As society evolves over time, the skills needed in the next generation also change and transform;  education has a responsibility to keep pace with this evolution and online homeschooling has paved the way for families to give their kids a solid start in this process.  For example,  cursive writing was once a priority skill, yet computer typing and software program navigation have now become the classes needed due to the changes in technology and its role in society.

Understanding the Roles for Successful Online Homeschool Programs

10/6/2020

0 Comments

 
​The most critical element in homeschooling is the student because everything focuses on providing them the best education possible. Whether they are in elementary, middle or high school, the student should be involved in the process including planning out the daily schedule, looking at online homeschool programs and providing feedback about the process. The student’s involvement will vary based on their age, but even the youngest students can help make learning better by letting their parents know when a concept isn’t clear, if they need more time in a subject or there is too much going on in the day. High schoolers are great examples of students who can take control of their education and work solely through an online portal to get their work done at a pace that fits their life situation.

How to Prepare for 8th Grade Online School as a Homeschooler?

10/6/2020

0 Comments

 
​Whether you are just getting into homeschooling or have been doing it for years, making sure your student is using the right program is always the most important decision. Some families start with a program that only goes up to 8th grade thinking that the student will transition to a traditional institution for their high school years. However, many high school students actually favor online schooling at home because an 8th grade online school gives them the flexibility that they want to create their own schedules and balance the many activities they get involved with at this age. Eighth grade is the final year of middle school which makes it a critical transition point because students can take advanced courses that will count towards high school credit and students should have their study skills developed by this point.

Homeschooling Tips For Math Courses in Online School 8th Grade

10/6/2020

For parents, teaching math is one of the factors that can keep them from homeschooling their children because they are concerned that they can’t teach it the correct way or they have a hard time understanding the higher math on their own. It is one of the core subjects required for graduation whether the student is simply earning their high school diploma or seeking to go on to college or university. The best online schools for 8th grade and above use excellent curricula to lay the foundation of math concepts that give students the option to enroll in a standard math route or to take an advanced route by taking a higher math class a year early.
