Are there any on-line home school programs that track progress like the Jumpstart software?

Alpha Omega has an on-line school program that tracks your progress for you.  They also have (at a much lower cost), a software-based program called "Switched On Schoolhouse" that will calculate grades and track progress for you.  If you are the kind of student who can stay on task, but is bored with just books, SOS is for you.

Teacher Vision (teachervision.com) is a great site.  It used to be free, but now requires membership.  There is a free trial for seven days, but after that the fee is $14.95.\n\nI also find a lot on the About.com site.

Many community colleges, trade schools and universities offer distance learning courses that can be completed at home.  Many programs take as little as four months to complete and are extremely inexpensive.  \n\nI hope this helps!

Here's a program that's perfect for that.  My 4 year old and 6 year old use it and it's worked great!\n\nwww.kid-surf.com\n\nYou can set it up to Start when Windows starts - if you want.

The Rosetta Stone software is great.  It costs no more than what you would pay for a semester of a college-level class, but it covers more, lets you work at your own pace, and you don't have to worry about tests.  It's an entirely different method of learning.

If you are effectively improving his speech on your own, in a home school setting, then congratulations on an excellent job!\n\nFederal law (IDEA) states that either parent or the local school district can initiate Due Process (mediation, and then if that fails court appeals) if either feels that the child's educational needs are not being met.\n\nHowever, if you have documented progress occurring, there shouldn't be a problem.\n\nAs a parent, you have the right to refuse any or all professional services from the public schools, including therapies (although because of the training and program curriculum access I would strongly recommend NOT refusing free access to a highly-trained professional).\n\nhttp://www.wrightslaw.com/law/code_regs/IDEARegs_PartE.htm\n\nhttp://www.wrightslaw.com/info/tests.evals.crabtree.htm\n\nThe school district MUST reach out to you, and offer these services, by law (Child Find). If they do not, then they are legally in trouble. However, you do have the right, at that point, to refuse services... you must sign a paper stating that you have done so (that way the school district can show that they have done their duty). The state Department of Education also supervises homeschooling, and you must show adequate yearly progress to continue with keeping your child at home. \n\nWith a child with special needs, you should be very careful to ensure that you have plenty of documentation that includes both diagnostic information showing your child's potential, and testing, lesson plans, and daily work showing that your child's progress is within that potential.\n\nWhy did the school bother you about this? Read this through:\nhttp://www.wrightslaw.com/idea/art/sec.1412.overview.htm\n\nIf your child isn't progressing, or you lack documentation to show progress, and the state forces you to send him into the public schools for programming, the school will have to both remediate what you failed to do, plus have him magically reading at grade level as soon as possible (thank you George Bush and NCLB). It makes school personnel "nervous Nellies" about homeschooled children, especially those with disabilities.\n\nhttp://www.wrightslaw.com/howey/power.mtgs.ltrs.htm\n\nIf you really review all the parent rights information out there, you will see that most of the time, they have to fight to get appropriate programming and services.... If you and the school system jump through the "service refusal" paperwork hoops together, they'll gladly drop you like a hot potato once their rear ends are legally covered.\n\nThen, just make sure your little guy's progressing adequately in all areas, so that a state audit of your records (or lack of) doesn't send him (and you) into the public schools.

www.w3schools.com is a good one

If you are looking for a complete curriculum, I have heard a lot of people like Abeka - a Christian programs that covers all the basic subjects, I think (though I have never used it myself).  I would highly recommend the book "A Thomas Jefferson Education," by Oliver DeMille.  You can guy it a gwc.edu in the bookstore section.  Check out hslda.org for info on home school groups in your state and info on home schooling in general.  One more piece of advice, don't get too much into the "school" mentality (my child has to do this, this and this at this, etc.).  Be flexible - that is one of the beauties on home schooling.  If your child doesn't like the curriculum you have, find something different - there are TONS of options out there.  Good luck!

There are lots out there.  Check at Rainbow Resource or Timberdoodles (see sources).  Is there something more specific you're looking for (subject, grade)?  My kids aren't quite to HS yet, but I've been looking.\n\nThere's also places like Bob Jones Univ. Press and A Beka Book, with full curriculum programs for HS (all levels, but you asked about HS)\n\nI've also seen 'correspondence' programs, but don't remember any of them right now.

My dad uses edhelper.com, for my younger sister, and it works great!\nThey have printouts and activites for you to there to learn. \n\nThey also have many catagories. So click on "math, then "5th grade" then the kind of division you are looking for.\nSuch as work problems or long division.

There's not much to pay for really!  Depending on what state you are in, you can probably do it for almost free!  A library card, internet access, some paper and pencils are just about all you need!\nI'm homeschooling my three children for almost nothing.  My 8 year old is doing the most focused work, so I'll tell you what I do with him. \n\nWriting: a $9 workbook from Wal Mart called "The Complete Book of Handwriting."  This goes from age 5-10 or something like that.  For older kids, they don't need much, just practice. \n\nReading: Whatever library books he's interested in.  We started off with a phonics program from A Beka, but you can find phonics curriculums free online if you look hard enough.  A Beka has a book called "A Handbook for Reading" that you can get for about $12, that teaches all the phonics sounds. \n\nHistory, Science, Social Studies:  Look at the WorldBook encyclopedia Scope and Sequence website.  They'll have a list of what should be learned at each grade level.  Then you can go to the library and find REAL books about those topics. You can look for science and history projects online for your topic. You can watch movies and educational tv shows about your topic.  \n\nMath:  For math, we use workbooks from Wal Mart. "The Complete Book of Math- Grades 5-6" is what my 8 year old son is using right now.  They're cheap (about $9 a piece), and cover everything that needs to be covered.  If your child needs extra practice in something, you can look online and find free worksheets.  Example:  My son needed help with long division.  I did a search for "long division free worksheets" and found a lot of them that I downloaded and printed out for him. \n\nI've educated my son for about $40 per year!   It's a lot cheaper than most people think.  Of course you could go out and buy an expensive $500 curriculum, but it probably wouldn't work for your child, as most homeschoolers tend to realize that the all in one curriculums just aren't for them.  Try it the really cheap way that I just described and I'm sure you and your children will love it!\n\nIf you need any more help, please email me!! I love helping people with these things!
