Time4Learning
What is Time4Learning:
An online educational curriculum for home school students or for added enrichment for students in classrooms.
The highschool curriculum correlates to state standards and is organized into courses that cover the subjects of language arts, math, social studies and science, plus two electives. Courses are parent-supervised, student-paced, and designed to help students achieve college and career readiness.
A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to use Time4Learning in our homeschool. As a mom of a 9th grader I thought that would give me a perfect opportunity to try out some new curriculum and see how it would fit in our school time. For a low monthly price your highschooler will be able to take 4 courses. Since we had already started our homeschool year I thought it would be interesting to try a few subjects. Our first week we tried Algebra, US History, Economics and Health. We decided to drop Economics after our first week since she was already taking an Economics course at the co-op. For the rest of the month we continued on with Algebra, US History, Health and then we added Biology.
My daughter enjoyed her time using Time4Learning and I am sure that we will continue on for the rest of the school year. It made my planning time so much easier and I am looking forward to continuing on with this program.
The only two cons I can think of is I would like the opportunity for my daughter to be able to go back and take a test again if she misses a lot. And other people have told me that you need to make sure that you keep your own records and not depend on Time4Learning to keep your records. That is not a problem for me as I do keep my own records.
If you are thinking about trying time4learning, just go to their website and sign up for one month. You don't have to make a long term commitment and the price is great!

This opinion is entirely my own and I am not an employee of Time4Learning, but I was compensated for my time.
