Sixth Grade Curriculum

I really like the new middle school curriculum but there are still some things I wish were better. I wish there was printable math worksheets to go along with the lessons. The guided notes are not the same as doing problems. The other thing is being able to set individual schedules for each class.

We really enjoy using Time4Learning! The platform is easy to use, engaging, and offers a great way to learn at our own pace. We are very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend it to other families!

The more curriculum we do at the level of 6th grade or more the more difficult it is to get my child through the work. It's difficult for her to tolerate all the talking. Please get rid of the video based curriculum or at least create the option of closed captions so sound can be turned off. As a parent I find the interface to adjust or even just SEE the material she is learning incredibly counterintuitive. I have to look up even how to GET to the correct screen over and over because it has so many different options and screens that have basically no information of any use and that do not actually lead to the one screen where some material can be adjusted. Also for some reason it keeps toggling the tests 'off' or toggles between quizzes and tests where you must select ONLY one. Why? I chose online to make curriculum and record keeping simpler but it is so frustrating that we sometimes just go back to paper based learning. Homeschooling parents want to be able to SEE what the child is learning. Yes actually SEE it. And making adjustments for pacing should be straightforward and SIMPLE. Also obviously the company knows but the specific software that has been adapted (I assume it was purchased or leased legitimately) 'shows through' periodically in case you were not aware. It's something that might lose you some subscribers on that basis. We aren't quitting yet but I am definitely frustrated!
