Current Courses

 

The following course is being offered fall semester:

 

Introduction to Writing

Start Date: TBA

This 4-week course provides a gentle introduction to writing and is appropriate for beginners and reluctant writers in middle and high school. My focus is on teaching the writing process and helping students see writing as an enjoyable and attainable goal. (We will not focus on spelling or grammar in this course - our goal is to help students become less intimidated with writing.)

 

Students must be able to check the forums and complete assignments each day (Monday-Friday). The fee for this course is $25 for students who are members of Carolina Homeschooler associations (see our list of participating associations) and $30 for non-members. This course may be cancelled if there are not enough students.

 

 

 

Registration

 

Registration for our Introduction to Writing course is now open.

 

To register, please:

 

1. Register for a Discussion Forums account

Most class activities will take place in the Course Area section of our discussion forums. To gain access to this area, parents and students must sign up for separate forum accounts. Parents of students under 13 will need to complete a little more paperwork than those with older students due to COPPA regulations.

 

For complete instructions on how to sign up for forum accounts, please visit the Course News and Information forum and read the "How to create forum accounts" thread. You will need your account username (and your student's account username) before continuing with the registration process.

 

Note: Please ask your child not to use his last name as part of his username due to privacy concerns. His first name is fine.

 

2. Submit your registration information

Once you've completed Step 1, copy and paste the following form into an email and supply the requested information (you can delete the Second Student portion if it's not needed, or add a Third Student section if you have more students to enroll):

 

NOTE: Please don't send your registration to me until you create forum accounts for you and your student. I will not be able to process your registration until you do.

 

Copy the text between the dotted lines.

Fee Information

 

Course fees (if any) are listed with each course description. Fees can be paid by check, money order, cashier's check, or non-credit/non-debit card PayPal. Discounts and free courses are available for members of associations which participate in the Carolina Homeschooler network (see our associations page for a list of participants). Fees do not include any required course materials. Homeschoolers in other states are welcome to participate in our courses if space is available.
