Starting with MtMM Questions

Post by glperky » Sun Jan 13, 2013 8:35 pm

I am wondering, I am not sure what I am wondering :roll: Can someone point to a thread on how to make MtMM high school creditable? Can a 10th grader do MtMM? If so, what would he do for 11th and 12th grade? He will be in the 10th grade in the fall of 2013. HoD would be completely different schooling for this child, would I be crazy for changing to HOD? Before you answer that question, let me just say, he is lazy and doesn't like to do school, he an do it and it comes easy to him, he just doesn't like to do school. Lots of questions, I know, sorry, but could really use some input. Thanks!

We've had lots of talks about this guide lately, and just for this reason.

Here are some threads:

If you are using MtMM with a highschooler: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=13002

Why is the science in MtMM not credit worthy: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12998

More high school questions/dilemma: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=13014

Sneak Peak for the MtMM guide with lotsa links (went to the board index and the MtMM thread for this): viewtopic.php?f=35&t=11148

Beefing up a guide for Jr/Sr high school (scroll through posts as there are lots of links): viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6571

You're welcome.

I am getting ready to order MtMM for my 8th grader (sorta last half of 8th/beginning of 9th). Some things I am beefing up for her and others not. All depends on how fast we move and when this ends. My goal is going through summer and being ready in the fall for the new high school Geo. guide.

eta: BTW, is there a reason you were looking at MtMM over going with the new Geo. guide when it comes out? Carrie has been sharing sneak peeks for the new guide. You'll find a few threads on the board for that.

I wasn't sure when the new Geo. guide was going to be out. :oops:

You are right. I looked quickly and I couldn't find a year. I thought it was for the 2013/14 year.

Anyone?

It will be available out for the 2013/2014 school year ... don't know when yet. Usually sometime in August I think.
