Homeschooling
Quote From: smmacleodWell, I am hopeschooling my two boys this year. We started in the summer. We do 1/2 days 6 days a week and then our Sunday lesson. Both of my boys are Bi-Polar/ADHD etc. There are days we do a page and stop for 15 minutes. It depends on their activity and attention. After we move I am hoping to put them in a gymnastics or martial arts. I want them to have the activity and contact.
I am willing to take any advice. I just ordered Switched On Schoolhouse which are used in the ADHD/Bi-Polar schools I looked into. There are tons of free items on-line. SM MacLeod Hi! Have you checked out the Konos curriculum? It's more of a guidebook, actually, but is perfect for wiggly little boys (I have 3 of 'em!). A lot of my friends who have ADHD kids or just kinestetic learners are finding a lot of success with KONOS. It's very hands on and multi-sensory. It's not for every mom though, so if you are not the hands on kinda mom, you'll lose your mind! LOL! That would be my suggestion to you for curriculum. Each little child is so very different from each other, so it's so nice to have so many options available to us to choose from. Good luck to you! It will be a great adventure!!
