We used to...My daughter sounds a bit like your son. We used to attend co-op classes, but later she felt she had outgrown them, and she really didn't like the larger crowds. I think if I had found something a bit smaller, mostly her age group, and classes she was more interested in, it would have been better. <br /><br />Sounds like the local co-op might not be very active if they still haven't gotten back to you. Maybe there is a local homeschool support group. We have them in our area and they have activities for the kids on holidays, a yearbook, sports, play dates, meetings for the parents, science and history fairs, and such. We participated in some of the activities for a few yeas. <br /><br />I looked at classical conversations once, but realized it wasn't going to fit my daughter's learning style at all. She is a right-brained visual learner and really needs to learn at her own pace. I knew the classes would squash her emotionally. We ended up using Time4Learning so she would have access to 3 grade levels for all her subjects and could progress at her own pace. She has dyslexia and ADHD. It worked for us. She wouldn't have been able to keep up in the classical conversations classes and would have felt way too much pressure. All kids are different though. <br /><br />Best wishes to you and your son. I hope you find some local support soon. :)<br /><br />Joyfully,<br />JackieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13282337046886177025noreply@blogger.com
