Hello there! Thank you all who have advised me on course selection for my only son, grade 8! He has been recommended for honors math and science, which he will do. He was not recommended for honors history, and thus will probably do honors English. (The English teacher has implied that she thought he could do one, but not both.) My son is a bit overloaded with extracurriculars so we are going to have him do Khan academy over the summer for both geometry and physics. Writing is a black hole to me, however. Is there any program that might help him get ready for more writing in honors English? I’m not sure he’ll find even regular history a cake walk. Summer is our best time to do anything.
